It also has a cloth cover This book was signed by 8,000 Watertown, New York (Jefferson County) and area residents from May of 1885 to 1892. This is a signature book for The Jefferson County Savings Bank. Each depositor signed the book after being assigned a number. They entered their residence and occupation, the names of their father and mother, the year they were born (often just the day and month), the names of husband or wife and information, as applicable in a remarks column.

There are 500 pages with sixteen signatures per page, for a total of 8,000. The labeling on the book indicates that this was the signature book for signatures 14,600 to 22,599.
