Adams County History
In the above-titled work in 2006, this writer briefly discussed the possibility that President George Washington traversed present Adams County in October 1794, during his return from Bedford to Philadelphia, a belief long and widely held locally. No credible assertion of the President's presence here in 1794 was possible at that time.

After extensive research, this writer was graciously requested to produce a sequel to his prior speculative writing. [excerpt]
