20211125559617Florenceville NB : privately published 2021. Book. As New. Soft cover. 1st Edition. 4to - over 9¾ - 12" tall. pictorial paper cover 493 pages : illustrations ; "Social items that appeared in the New Brunswick newspapers dating back to the 1800s. There are major gaps in the submissions due in part to the irregular submissions of the correspondents. It is also quite likely there were copies of the newspapers missing or were not suitable for imaging. Forest City it seems was the earliest to have a regular correspondent with an item dated August 1886. The authors were never credited with a byline but an educated guess can identify some of them. Where applicable I have added personal comments to help explain relationships and denote who "Mrs." is. Women were always identified by their husband's name. Anything in italics are my remarks. At the end of some entries are comments of the reader further expanding information."--Page 4 of cover. privately published Paperback
