Also for the earlier towns, Barber has included lists of the earliest proprietors.<br>The compiler has incorporated into the accounts of many of the towns&apos; biographical sketches of leading inhabitants, and, unusually for this sort of compilation, he has also included many substantial inscriptions from tombstones and other monuments.
