To Nytend:

Regarding Cornville, Arizona.

1. First, the section on natural history. Cornville is a small town; I am not sure that the geologic and descriptive aspects are better described in other substantial sources. If I can find such I will add it, however I was a long term resident of the area and did receive some geologival education locally so the information I am providing is not speculative. It would be senseless to suggest that information is better for no other reason than because one can quote another person having said it.

2. Regarding the history, My family has been living in Cornville since the 1880's. I have a considerable amount of direct knowledge of facts and events concerning the town. That being the case notwithstanding I have endeavored, in consideration of the standards of Wikipedia and the spirit of cooperation, to cite 3 of the only references that even exist in print to the history of Cornville. If the form of the citations is problematic I humbly request that you direct your edit to having me correct that (I am new to this). If you do not think the references appropriate in some way I would like to know how you conclude that (The references in two cases are recorded eyewitness accounts by the original settlers and I think I also referred to the US census)

Your forbearance and understanding and your kind assistance where appropriate are grately appreciated.

For this reason (and not to be difficult) I have undone the deletion. Again, lets do this right. I want to see the entry corrected. I did not find it in a satisfactory state when I looked it up.

Best Regards

Grady Loy
