county of Lennox, is tri-angular in shape, being bounded on the south and west

stiff loam or clay, and the timber principally hardwood, with a little pine.

gradually in value and in 1817 was stated to be worth for cleared land, four
pounds per acre. In 1850 the township contained 690 inhabitants and 801 in
