As a last resort, here is the list of missing, by states, from JohnniePalmer's book: Campion, Hoyt, Reardon, Jones, Stiles, Teachout, Bergman, Brown, Dillingham, Johnson, Marceau, Welshe, Farwell, Cole, Fahey, French, Kehayas, Nichols, Robinson, Saltmarsh, Simanton, Webber, White, McM. Gaige, Junkins, Barke, Hastings, Thurman, Bentley, Howland, Hutchins, McLaughlin, Piane, Richardson, Woodman, Woodman, Haywood, Barsalaux, Griffith, Lyons, McLean, Sleeper, Warner, Smith, Fairfield, Littlefield, and Trott.
