On the wooded slopes above the Susquehanna, a frontier county took shape. Lycoming's first hundred years were hard, improvised, and remarkably vivid. The past feels startlingly close. First issued in the nineteenth century, John Franklin Meginness's Lycoming County: Its Organization and Condensed History for One Hundred Years stands as a classic of Pennsylvania county history and susquehanna river valley history. With the measured care of serious local history nonfiction, Meginness traces the settlement and development lycoming county, from frontier beginnings to organised townships, courts, churches, schools, and other civic institutions in central pennsylvania lycoming county. His narrative offers an indispensable american regional history book and a richly detailed lycoming county genealogy resource, invaluable for family historians and anyone engaged in genealogy and ancestry research. For readers of early pennsylvania frontier history and 19th century pennsylvania history, this work serves as both story and tool: a local historians reference book alive with names, dates, places, and the gradual shaping of civic life. Long consulted in pennsylvania county histories collection across libraries and archives, it reveals how one community along the Susquehanna mirrored the wider American experience. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure, prepared for readers, researchers, and classic-literature enthusiasts who appreciate the enduring value of carefully preserved local memory.
