This section contains the mini biographies, listing of early settlers contained in the write-ups for each town and a listing contributors.  Each town section has three links.
The first column links will take you to a actual text of the town section containing small sketches and biographies.
The second column of settlers links lets you view a listing extracted from this text listing early settlers in that town or in the case of Cooperstown, the village.
The third column contains a listing of living people (1878) who contributed information to Hurd for this history.

The transcriptions were done by Sandy Goodspeed.
