  • Here are some additional names which appear in "The Centinel of the North-Western Territory" published in Cincinnati from 1793 to June 1796.  I had not transcribed them in my earlier message (Part II) and went back to add them.

    The names appeared in the newspaper in various capacities: as advertisers; as people who offered services; as people who are wanted (e.g., as deserters or for various legal reasons); or as people who disclaim any debts for various reasons.  This list is not 100 percent complete.  As before, please remember that births, deaths, and marriages of local citizens were not reported by the newspaper.
