Incorporating Hanna's smaller      work,
Ohio Valley Genealogies
, along with lists of first landowners,      early marriages (to 1841), will records (to 1861), and burial records, this      book is the premier reference work on the Ohio Valley. Concerned chiefly      with a record of names and events, it bears reference to upwards of 50,000      pioneers, most of them Pennsylvanians and Revolutionary War bounty holders      who ventured into this region of eastern Ohio. So far as it goes, the book      is a factual recitation of the names of all those found in the records and      annals of the late 18th and early 19th centuries.
The first part of the book consists of a general history of      the first settlers (Scotch-Irish, Quakers, Germans) and the early churches.      The second and third parts, however, contain genealogical matter of wide      scope and importance, with extensive alphabetical lists of the county's      land, marriage, burial, and will records, and detailed genealogies of the      first settlers, showing date and place of birth and death, place of      residence, name of wife and date of marriage, names of children and      grandchildren, and dates and places of birth.
