ERRATA:
- On page 46, eighth line from the top, in place of "John Dodds," read "George Dodds"
- On page 48, second line from bottom, in place of "Jeremiah Lovell," read "Josiah Lovell"
- On page 104, nineteenth line from the bottom, in place of "Poin Isabel," read "Point Isabel"
- On page 159, second line from the bottom, in place of "bread," read "bred"
- On page 220, twenty-fourth line from the bottom, in place of "1874," read "1774."
- On page 226, sixth line fro the top, in the place of "War of the Revolution," read "War of 1812."
- On page 418, the biography of Grimes, H. C., should read Greiner, H. C.
     [Since, Mr. Colborn's history was printed, reliable information develops the fact that the first settlement in the county was as early as 1801, instead of 1805, as he has given it; also, that the first Lutheran Church at Overmyertown, now New Reading (a log building), was erected in 1805, which was, no doubt, the first public house of worship in what is now Perry county.] - THE PUBLISHER.
