This project would not have been possible without the knowledge
and dedication of many historians and researchers who have
studied these events far longer than I and without the perseverance of librarians, archivists and volunteers at
local libraries and historical societies.
I know there were many people who assisted in the research that
I am not able to name here, and I apologize for any
unintentional omissions.
I am especially indebted to the following people for their
assistance and insights. Without them, I would not have found
many of these sites.
