In July of 2000 I had posted a short web page, then followed with letters to many Canadian and U.S. Dentingers.  This was a last-ditch effort to draw in additional information before wrapping up the project.  The results gave me another year's work!   How many more Dentingers or Dendingers were out there?   Very many, I was sure of that.  The project was already 600 pages in length and I was growing weary.  The search could go on forever.  I made my way to the printer with what I had in hand.
