Which is not a common disease in this county, we are perhaps blessed with more good springs than almost any county in the state- principally lime-with several cholepzate and sulphur springs. The surface of the county, is rather uneven the character of the soil various. Transcribed from census images and contributed to Genealogy Trails by Barb Z.
