WILLIAM CATTERTON'S STORE - Orange County

This store register is found in Orange County Families Vol. 3 by William Everett Brockman pub. 1959. The list is from 1810 and 1818, but no distinction was made to the two different years. The Register was submitted by a Catterton descendant to the author:
