Originally published as Part II of the author's History of York County, Pennsylvania, this work embraces about 1,200 sketches of 19th-century York Countians. Most sketches include a variety of genealogical and biographical data. Colonial York County's prominence as a crucible for German, English, and Scotch-Irish immigrants accounts for this book's importance for genealogists with Pennsylvania origins.
