Note- We previously did an article concerning Hub's store for the years 1860 to 1870, so we know he operated the store there on Dareville corner for many years. Among the customers listed in this old ledger are the very first settlers and owners of the land in that area and probably very few native born Jefferson Countians.

The first entry in the old ledger was April 19, 1847. The last entry was May 25, 1849. The first customer, Jesse A Dees.
