Excerpt from Our County: Its History and Early Settlement by TownshipsIn the organization of these there seems to have been but little attention paid to the congressional lines, as we find them running into each other in every case. Our congressional townships therefore are not used except in the description of lands. Hence in these articles we will have reference always 'to the civil, and not the congressional, townships, in speak ing of them.Perry township occupies the southeast corner of Dela 'ware county, being bounded by Liberty township on the north, Randolph county on the east, Henry county on the south, and Monroe township on the west. Its dimensions are five tiers of sections (or five miles) north and south, and six sections (01 miles) east and west, thus containing thirty sec tions or square miles. Counting 640 acres to the section gives us acres in round numbers.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
