Excerpt from Ebey's Landing National Historical Reserve: Historic Resources Study, 2005Many individuals have contributed to the preparation of this study. Long time central Whidbey Island residents with a deep personal knowledge of this place have shared their memories, insights, photographs, and time with the authors. We extend warm thanks especially to Roger Sherman, Dale Sherman, Lillian Huffstetler, Marjorie Hanson, Kenneth Pickard, Albert Heath, and Robert Strong. Numerous archivists and librarians gave us valuable assistance during the research phase of this project, particularlyjanet Enzmann at the Island County Historical Museum in Coupeville, elizabethjoffrion at the Center for Pacific Northwest Studies in Bellingham, James Copher at the Washington State Archives in Bellingham, Carla Richerson in Special Collections and librarians in the Serials, Map, and Government Documents departments at the University of Washington Libraries in Seattle, and Joy Werlink at the Washington State Historical Society, along with many other individuals who assisted us at smaller libraries scattered around the Puget Sound area. We also wish to thank certain Island County government employees - Desiree Welch in the engineering department and Suzanne Sinclair in the auditor's office - who cheerfully helped us locate historical documents and provided a place for us to examine them. Finally, we wish to thank all those who painstakingly reviewed drafts of this study and suggested ways to improve the final product. Many thanks to all! Naturally, the authors take full responsibility for any errors of fact, emphasis, or interpretation that may inadvertently appear in this historical resources study.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
