PLEASE DO NOT CHANGE the placement of the reference and footnote notations. 1/2 of the census data and other is lost if you do. No rule that I know of that says you have to have no space between "Sources" and References or can't have footnotes. And yes, I have read the "Help" page. Thank you.

Part of the Tree for Vietnam POW Bobby Bagley. If a family member wishes to pick up and contribute, please do. Not a family member for me.
