for if this sandy schenck of yours is the same person<br/>
as my earlier contact <br/>
william s schenck<br/>
then he was apparently unaware of <br/>
or at least not particularly interested in <br/>
any short changing of delaware by the 1934 &or 1935<br/>
supreme court decisions<br/>
as of a couple of weeks ago anyway<br/>
when someone last updated his presentation on delaware<br/>
boundaries<br/>

<br/>
<br/>
also possibly worth mentioning here<br/>
i have seen most but not all of the last item in his<br/>
bibliography<br/>
<br/>
perry 1934 the circular boundary of delaware<br/>
in civil engineering magazine<br/>
<br/>
which is a collection of probably the most reliable<br/>
info on all the delaware arc swings up to that point<br/>
<br/>
so it could yet offer a fresh clue on this last one<br/>
too<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
& the following detailed delaware chronology<br/>
which is likely drawn from contemporary sources<br/>
<a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.hsd.org/DHE/DHE_when_Timeline.htm">http://www.hsd.org/DHE/DHE_when_Timeline.htm</a><br/>
suggests there may have been some public awareness at<br/>
the time that the 1935 supreme court decision already<br/>
gave delaware a few uninhabited acres attached to new<br/>
jersey<br/>
<br/>
& it suggests to me that contemporaneous news<br/>
clippings & commentary may be our best way to go<br/>
