Excerpt from Report of Progress in Jefferson County Brookville the present county seat was established in 1829, though no building was erected there until 1830. After 1850 the growth of population though steady, was less rapid than it had been for the previous twenty years, partly because of the destruction of the forests, and partly because the commercial reverses of that time checked the lumbering business, and stemmed the tide of immigration.
