ReplyDeleteHi Fran, thanks for visiting my site. I am visiting my daughter waiting for a new grandchild and should be home in about a month. It has been so long since I worked on the Thorn line that I really don't remember sources and that information would be at home in Texas. However, I have discovered some sources containing contradicting information and may need to make adjustments. If you have documentation which is different, I would love to see it. Always looking to update information and records. Sue
