County, Missouri
This history of Clay County has been
compiled from three sources, printed and oral, which were deemed
authentic and reliable, and from personal observation. No
apocryphal event has been recorded, nor questionable story
attempted to be preserved. Gleanings from unquestioned truthful
printed history have been freely made. The public archives in
Washington City have been in requisition, and from the writings
of Mr. Jefferson more than excerpts have been taken therefrom.
