Volume 2 of the Old Settler's Association of Grayson County comprises receipts and disbursements from 1898 to 1944 (pgs. 2 - 125), as well as minutes from 1901-1911 (numbered pgs. 1 - 199, but these begin in the middle of this volume). It appears that two ledgers were bound together in this volume. Included in this volume are member donations and minutes from the annual reunion.
In 1879, settlers in Grayson County created the Association a few miles southwest of Sherman. Since then, the group changed its name and bought land in the county, and today functions as a preserver of the area's history. The group grants financial assistance to local libraries, educational institutions, and museums.
