USGS Menlo Park vertebrate Cenozoic Paleontology Collection

His catalog was converted into digital form, Excel and Filemaker Pro database. The Catalog is 516 fossil localities. His supplementary data has been added whenever possible - sources field map locality points, E&R files with enhanced faunal lists, as well as formal publications.
