Teri, years ago I contacted the Williams County Historical Society and requested a copy of 'The Wonder of Williams', 'A History of Williams County, North Dakota' Vols 1 & 2. They granted my request and sent it to my local library. I believe they loaned it for several days or weeks so I had plenty of time to do my research. At the library I was able to photo copy the pages I needed and then had the books returned.
I believe the Historical Society's ID Number for this publication is GEN 978.473 W67W V1. They may still loan out these books today.
Good Luck.....Doug Hunter
