This is an excellent point Stanley and I wish the author of the article had pointed it out (if she was aware, and perhaps she was not?). Penn State's Sanborn collection is extensive and we continue to work at filling in gaps to our holdings. The union list you provided here is excellent! Highly detailed and being kept up to date too. Thanks to anyone working on this list from creation and beyond!
