I have a few updates for you: IPE.00971 & 00972 - I think are both the Wills Point formation. 00970 is likely Wills Point as well (I didn't actually see any fossils from this particular collection). For all three, the county is mislabeled and should be Bastrop. I didn't visit them, but these outcrops, or equivalent strata very nearby, are still exposed on the Colorado River. They are described in: Zachos, L. G., C. L. Garvie, and A. Molineux. 2005. Definitive locations of Paleocene and Eocene marine fossil localities, Colorado River, Bastrop County, Texas. The Texas journal of science 57(4):317-328. And of course, I have a question I can read most of Schuchert handwriting, but can't understand what he wrote on the page facing where you delineated the different locs - the last line says " So my fossils come from XXXX Midway" and you underlined it and wrote "important to you?" and within IPE 971 "What we saw here was less than 10 ft of XXX Midway all XXXX (perhaps 'highly') fossiliferous" I can scan the note page if you don't have it handy. Much thanks!! I'll keep you updated on how processing and identifying goes. ~ Jocelyn On Wed, Jan 16, 2008 04:51 PM Susan Butts <[email protected]> wrote: Hi Jocelyn, Mark has the white copy of the loan form in his envelope. You just got the "cc" letter, the "plan to publish" form, and the loc info. Mark, Please return that white loan form when you get a chance! Thanks! It's not particularly urgent (why do I ever say that??? it is like an invitation to ignore the form -- hey, get that form in ASAP!). Have fun in Texas! Let me know if you have any modifications on the localities I made for the Schuchert locs (hopefully not "under parking lot of new housing development/walmart store/etc., Utley, TX"). Susan.
