Printed in Syracuse, New York at the Journal Office, this historic 264-page guide acts as an incredibly detailed census of the county’s residents, landowners, and tradespeople immediately following the American Civil War. : Entries are organized by township (such as Arcadia, Lyons, Sodus, and Palmyra) and sub-sorted by the local post office where the residents received their mail. Because Palmyra (located in Wayne County) is the birthplace of the Latter Day Saint movement, Hamilton Child famously included a sharp, highly critical four-page essay detailing the local history of Mormonism. : Features prominent vintage illustrated advertisements for local 19th-century regional businesses, often printed on distinct colored paper inserts.
