place of worship. Anyone who uses this CD-ROM for researching early landowners of the Redstone Arsenal area should cross-check the contents of the JORDAN'S CHAPEL folder. The selected collections of data, plus the conclusions drawn in the “Summary Report” files about the cemeteries and the associated families, represent the best judgment and research capabilities of the volunteer effort. If any future reviewer can elaborate upon, clarify, or correct any of the data contained herein, it is requested that the undersigned be contacted for that purpose. To the extent possible, updates will be made to provide the expanded or corrected information on future CD-ROM productions. For now, please keep in mind that nothing was done to deliberately distort, modify, or ignore any of the facts encountered in this work. It is offered, as encountered, within the best integrity of the volunteer for all future reviewers to consider for whatever purposes they may have. It has been my objective in undertaking this effort that the records of the lives of the pioneer families should be preserved in a format that will enable future generations to appreciate their time on this earth. Not all pioneers were “prominent” people, but even the most common of the area's early settlers had an influence toward the clearing of the land and the certain progression of the region toward the superb living and working conditions offered by the area today. This collection of data and photographs is dedicated to the memory of all of the early settlers, with thanks for the lives that they lived through various hardships and joys, which ultimately benefit those who enjoy the land today.
