The Western Carolinian carried a variety of advertising, which was then, as it is for newspapers now, a major source of revenue. These advertisements for the years 1827-1828 are compiled in this volume. In them the citizens of Rowan County and the surrounding area sold their houses; people advertised for lost items; natural disasters happened; people were murdered; executions were carried out; sheriffs sold property to pay for taxes. These and many other events were published in the paper. Over 2,200 names are indexed.
424 pages including index, history of the county and the towns in it, businesses, churches, families and organizations, lots of b/w illustrations
