This volume is divided into five parts. Part One presents an historical overview of the Northwest Territory: the division of the Northwest Territory, the development and organization of the state and the formation of counties. Part Two presents the history of Warren County: its geology and settlement, the county organization, its towns and villages, its military history, plus education and religion. Part Three presents the history of Benton County: general county matters, its military history and past events. Part Four presents the history of Jasper County: the formation of the county, its military history and the growth of its villages. Part Five presents the history of Newton County: its development, its involvement in the war and the growth of its villages. Included in Parts Two through Five are numerous biographical sketches divided by individual townships within the counties. Because there is no index, every township and biographical sketch has been individually bookmarked.
