Special thanks to the late Jim Tumblin, Fountain City historian, and to the book he left us, Fountain City: People Who Made a Difference (Celtic Cat Publishing, 2016), to the Knox County Public Library’s Calvin M. McClung Historical Collection, and to our colleague, longtime Fountain City resident Nicole Stahl, who helped with research and directional advice.
