I acknowledge gratefully the cooperation of many members of the family who assisted with material to a great or lesser degree in supplying information. My especial thanks, however, are due Dr. H. C. Smith, MD, of Glendale, Californ¬ ia, who has spent many hours in collabora¬ tive research among county records, many unindexed and disorderly, in order that a semblance of authenticity and continuity might be given the work. HERALD F. STOUT T HIS BOOK is manufactured in compliance with no known regulations, from materials that happened to be at hand; printed from hand and machine-set types by letterpress and lithography.
