739, 145, 42 pp., index. French's Gazetteer is a complete history and description of every county, city, town, village, and locality in New York. But more than that it is a record of the founders and early settlers of practically every locality in the state. Information given for each locality includes founding (and founders), early settlements (and settlers), historical sketch to the time of writing, leading institutions, scholls and churches, prominent and representative citizens, stories of general and local interest, statistics from state censuses, and names of natural and man made topographical features. Preceding this core part of the Gazetteer is a survey of the government, topography and institutions of the state of New York. This edition incorporates Frank Place's Index of Names, a 16,000 name index originally published by the Cortland County Historical Society.
