About this Index

Generally speaking, this is not an index of personal names, unless the person named is the subject of an article or a significant passage within an article. Thousands of individuals have been named in REVIEW articles over the years. Each year is indexed for these names at the end of the actual REVIEWs. The same observation applies for authors of articles, who are not indexed in the present pages but who will be found identified in the regular volumes.

Along with each reference here is given the year of the article’s publication. Readers should bear in mind that the REVIEW began in 1969 as a modest experiment with restricted financing. Its quality and its backing have consistently increased. The older articles will therefore be found to be shorter and less thoroughly researched than the newer ones. Traditionally received materials and ideas sometimes appear in the early writing which later study has proven to be incorrect. The earlier information may often be found rectified or enhanced in later articles, to which it is hoped that the reader will refer.

Statement of Purpose

This is a copy of the Index that was created and published in 1995 the Franklin County Historical Society. The purpose of this document is to make it easier to find historical information in the Franklin County Historical Review. This online index is presented as a plain text document rather than a database because this method made it simpler and easier for the Historical Society to prepare and edit.
