The opening chapters of this encyclopedic treatment deal with the Newberry County's formation, early settlers, soldiers, notable citizens, government institutions, and social and economic development, while later chapters are given over to biographies, cemetery inscriptions, family reminiscences and folklore. At the heart of the book is a long section devoted to genealogies of pioneer families of Newberry County.
This book provides family sketches and genealogical information on the first families to settle in Edgefield County, SC. The earliest settlers date back to the early 1700s. This area is particularly significant as the "end" of the Great Wagon Road from the New England States. Generally the area was not populated by white settlers until just prior to the Revolutionary War, but immediately following the war, thousands of people passed through as they pushed into Georgia, Alabama, and points west. By the time of the 1790 census, Edgefield county had families with 763 surnames listed. This volume focuses on the families which were apparently in the area as early as 1750. Families Profiled: Hammond, Dillard, Williamson, Thomas, Pickens, Abney, Brooks, Dobbins, Galphin, Pope, Harrison, and Bonham.This volume also includes Civil War rosters for the following units formed from Edgefield County.-1st Infantry Regiment (Gregg's) Company C - Edgefield Rifles-1st Infantry Regiment (Gregg's) Company G - Hamburg Volunteers-1st Infantry Regiment (Gregg's) First Company H - Cherokee Ponds Guards-1st Battalion Sharpshooters-2nd Cavalry Regiment Company G - Bonham Light Dragoons-2nd Cavalry Regiment Company I - Edgefield Hussars-2nd Infantry Regiment State Troops Company B-2nd Infantry Regiment State Troops Company I Other volumes in this series focus on other families.

Grayson County is famous in southwestern Virginia as the cradle of the New River settlements--perhaps the first settlements beyond the Alleghanies. The Nuckolls book is equally famous for its genealogies of the pioneer settlers of the county, which, typically, provide the names of the progenitors of the Grayson County line and their dates and places of migration and settlement, and then, in fluid progression, the names of all offspring in the direct and sometimes collateral lines of descent. Altogether somewhere in the neighborhood of 4,000 persons are named in the genealogies and indexed for ready reference.
