A special thanks to all who helped with the research, drove us through farm fields, climbed down in abandoned quarries, spent weeks looking at dim microfilm and old dusty books, gathered family photos and memorabilia and generously shared their stories, to Kling Memorials who opened their records and shop to us and to Early American Industries Association whose grant made this work possible.
