INTRODUCTION.
INTRODUCTION.
In presenting to the public the "Gazetteer and Business Directory of Erie County," the publisher desires to return his sincere thanks to all who have so kindly aided him in obtaining the information it contains, and rendered it possible to present it in the brief space of time in which it is essential such works should be completed. Especially are our thanks due to the several editors of the papers published in the county, for the uniform kindness they have evinced in calling public attention to the author's efforts; and to A. J. Sterrett, Com- missioners' Clerk, and R. N. Greene, Esq., Waterford, for essential aid in furnishing material for the work. Many others have kindly volunteered their assistance, to all of whom we tender our grateful acknowledgment.
The following works were consulted in its preparation : Miss Laura G. Sanford's " History of Erie Co .; " " Report of the Public Schools, for 1872 -; " Gordon's "Gazetteer of Penn'a. ; " Cooper's "Naval History ;" Atkinson's "Directory of Erie ;" Spencer's " History of the United States ;" and "Directory of Corry."
That errors have occurred in so great a number of names and dates as are here given is probable ; and that names have been omitted which should have been inserted is quite certain. We can only say that we have exercised more than ordinary diligence aid care in this difficult and complicated feature of book making. Of such as feel aggrieved in consequence of errors or omissions we beg pardon, and ask the indulgence of the reader in marking such as have been observed in the subsequent reading of the proofs, and which are found in the Errata, following the Introduction.

INTRODUCTION.
It was designed to give a brief history of all the Church organizations in the county, but owing, in some cases, to the negligence of those who alone were able to give the necessary information, and in others, to the inability of any one to do so. we have been obliged to omit many or indefinitely delay the completion of the work.
We would suggest that our patrons observe and become familiar with the explanations at the commencement of the Directory. The names it embraces, and the information connected therewith, were obtained by actual canvass, and are as correct and reliable as the judgment of those from whom they were solicited render practicable. Each agent is furnished with a map of the township he is expected to canvass, and he is required to pass over every road, and call at every farm house and place of business in the township, in order to obtain the facts from the individuals concerned whenever possible.
The map of the county was engraved with great care by Weed, Parsons & Co., of Albany, and will, it is believed, prove a valuable acquisition to the work.
The Advertisers represent some of the leading business men and firms of this and other counties ; and we most cheerfully commend them to the patronage of those under whose obser- vation these pages may come.
While thanking our patrons and friends generally for the liberality and cordiality with which our efforts have been seconded, we take this occasion to express the hope that the information found in these pages will not prove devoid of interest and value, though we are fully conscious that the brief history of the county the scope of the work enables us to give is by no means an exhaustive one, and can only hope that it may prove a nucleus and incentive to future historians, who will be the better able to do full justice to the subject, and leave our work to secure that favor which earnest endeavor ever wins from a discriminating public.
