FBI Records Access and Historical Lead Review Request

October 17, 2026

To: FBI Record/Information Dissemination Section
Email: fbi.foia@fbi.gov
From: Brian “Happy” Bryanson
Reply email: CPTSDcoldcase@gmail.com
Reference supplied by requester: 1751759-0

Subject: Electronic replacement of CD records, disability accommodations, prior-agent contact, and referral of historical missing-person and suspected serial-homicide leads

Dear FBI Records Staff:

I cannot read the CD you sent because my laptop has no CD/DVD drive. Please provide the same released records through a secure download link or another accessible electronic method. Please retain reference 1751759-0 exactly as supplied and advise me if your system requires a different format. I do not know whether this is solely a FOIPA processing number or also relates to an investigative file; please clarify that distinction.

I request readily reproducible electronic records under 5 U.S.C. § 552(a)(3)(B), together with effective communication and reasonable accommodation under Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act, 29 U.S.C. § 794, and 28 C.F.R. §§ 39.130 and 39.160. My specific functional needs and diagnostic-reference information are set out in Chapter 1. [L1–L4]

For decades, I have reported childhood recollections involving my deceased parents, Robert Stout Shelton and Glenda Ruth Shelton, and possible missing or unidentified people. Through CPTSDcoldcase on Blogger, https://cptsdcoldcase.blogspot.com/, I organize dated accounts, victim-description sheets, maps, and outreach in the hope of finding independent witnesses and records. My purpose is to “Send the dead home”: help establish identities and fates through evidence and help families obtain answers. [A1–A4]

I recall that Special Agent Merv Mason visited my home in Caddo Mills, Texas, with other agents and received materials concerning my reports. Please identify the office holding those materials and any existing inventory, receipts, scans, binder images, interview records, or referral records. Please advise whether Mr. Mason remains with the FBI, has retired, or has a publicly releasable professional contact route. If direct contact is unavailable, please forward my inquiry to the responsible office. I am not requesting a private home address or personal contact details. [A4]

Please also tell me which office or designated contact, if any, is reviewing these suspected serial-homicide leads. I am requesting confirmation of status, not assuming that an investigation has been opened. If no matter is assigned, please explain the appropriate intake or referral process. Please route investigative questions to the appropriate unit while processing the CD-access request separately.

Please acknowledge receipt by email. Please notify me before incurring fees. Thank you for helping me access my records and obtain a clear written response.

Respectfully,
Brian “Happy” Bryanson

Chapter 1 Disability Statement and Requested Accommodations

I have learning, psychiatric, cognitive, and physical disabilities that substantially affect reading, processing spoken information, short-term memory, concentration, walking, standing, and completing tasks during symptom episodes. Dr. Erica R. Crawford’s April 10, 2020 evaluation, signed April 17, describes reading and mathematics learning disabilities, PTSD with dissociative symptoms and complex long-term trauma, recurrent moderate depression, a history of two childhood traumatic brain injuries, crutch use, chronic pain, and substantial mobility limitations. Her December 3, 2018 letter describes trauma-related communication and safety concerns. These are historical clinical records, not a new assessment of my current condition. [C1–C2]

I additionally report ongoing dissociative amnesia, ADHD, an OSDD diagnosis added in September 2026, edema, fall risk, and continued limitations from pain and hip problems. Current diagnostic details and injury coding should be confirmed with my treating clinicians. I request that any needed supporting documentation be requested by email and limited to what is necessary for accommodation.

Category	Clinical wording or reported limitation	Classification reference and status
Learning	Reading disability consistent with dyslexia; mathematics disability consistent with dyscalculia.	F81.0 Specific reading disorder; F81.2 Mathematics disorder. Reference mappings; clinician should confirm record coding. [C1, D1]
Psychiatric	PTSD with delayed expression, dissociative symptoms and complex long-term trauma; I describe this as CPTSD.	F43.10 PTSD unspecified is a reference category; ICD-11 6B41 is Complex PTSD. These systems are distinct; no new patient code is assigned here. [C1, D2–D3]
Psychiatric	Recurrent major depressive disorder, moderate, documented in 2020.	F33.1 as recorded in the evaluation; historical diagnosis. [C1, D2]
Reported diagnoses	Dissociative amnesia; OSDD; ADHD.	Reference categories: F44.0; F44.89; F90.9, respectively. Subtype, current diagnosis and actual chart coding require clinician confirmation. [D1–D2]
Cognitive and neurological	History of two TBIs and difficulties encoding verbal information and with short-term memory.	Z87.820 Personal history of traumatic brain injury is a history reference, not a complete code for ongoing sequelae. [C1, D4]
Physical	Difficulty walking, crutch use, chronic pain, hip limitations; reported edema and fall risk.	R26.2 Difficulty in walking, NEC; G89.29 Other chronic pain are reference categories only. Exact injury, edema and fall-risk codes are not assigned without medical records. [C1, D4]

Coding integrity: The transcribed 2020 report contains apparent mismatches between several printed codes and the diagnostic labels beside them. I rely on the clinician’s narrative and request clarification from the clinician rather than silently amending the signed record. The table provides classification references, not a certification, billing claim, or new diagnosis.

Requested accommodations: (1) email-only communication; (2) selectable-text, searchable PDFs where readily available, with original scans retained; (3) numbered written questions in manageable groups and plain language; (4) reasonable response time and breaks; (5) interviews arranged in advance, with a support person if requested and permitted; (6) no unexpected appointments or unannounced visits for routine follow-up. If a requested method is unavailable, please propose an equally effective alternative. My lack of a disc drive is a practical access barrier; the disability accommodation request also concerns the functional needs described above.

Chapter 2 Records Requested and Written Questions

These numbered questions are voluntary requests for clarification, not court-issued interrogatories. For FOIA purposes, I request existing records that answer them where available. I understand FOIA does not compel the creation of answers, research, an investigation, or disclosure of exempt information. Please identify any separate request, identity verification, consent or intake process needed. [L1, L5]

1. Electronic delivery: What office can reissue the CD contents through a secure download? Please provide the released files, release letter, existing index and any password or access instructions by an appropriate secure method.

2. Reference and scope: What does 1751759-0 identify? Please supply existing acknowledgment and processing records showing the request scope and any linked releasable references.

3. Prior visit: Please locate existing interview reports, FD-302s if any, notes, appointment or visit records, consent-to-search documents, property receipts, correspondence and referral records relating to my reported Caddo Mills visit by Merv Mason and accompanying agents.

4. Binder and submissions: Please locate existing receipts, inventories, photographs, scans, copies, electronic imports and transmittals of my three-ring binder, victim sheets, maps and letters; identify the custodial office where releasable.

5. Mason contact: Can you confirm that the Merv Mason identified in my records is the agent I recall? What publicly releasable professional status or office contact can be provided, and can this inquiry be forwarded if he is retired or reassigned?

6. Assignment: Is any office or unit assigned to assess these leads? Please identify a releasable liaison or supervisory contact and distinguish an intake entry, assessment, investigation, referral and closed matter.

7. Disposition: Please provide existing records of referrals, decisions not to proceed, closures, requests for additional information and responses to my prior submissions, to the extent releasable.

8. Search parameters: Please advise how to submit the names Brian/Bryan Happy Bryanson and relevant prior names, addresses and dates securely to help locate records. Do not infer unknown aliases.

9. Agency coordination: Are there releasable records of communications concerning my submissions with the Texas Rangers, Irving Police, Dallas-area medical examiners, airport police, or Louisiana agencies?

10. Preservation: Please preserve relevant submitted materials and existing processing or referral records in accordance with applicable retention requirements, and identify any existing disposition record if material was transferred or destroyed.

11. Scope and fees: If any additional search exceeds the original request, please propose a narrowed scope and obtain my agreement before incurring fees. Disability or low income alone is not asserted here as an automatic FOIA fee waiver.

12. Withholding and review: For any withheld material, please state the applicable exemption, release reasonably segregable nonexempt portions, and provide applicable administrative review instructions. If information cannot be confirmed, please state that rather than treating silence as an assignment decision.

Chapter 3 Questions for Historical Lead Assessment

Please forward these investigative questions to an appropriate intake office. I understand that the records office may have no investigative role and that federal jurisdiction or an active assignment has not been established. Each question asks what can be checked; it does not assert that the check has already occurred.

13. Which local, state or federal agency is appropriate for each location and period, and what minimum details would permit a documented review?

14. Can each lead be compared with missing-person reports, unidentified-person files, medical-examiner accessions, dispatch logs and contemporaneous reporting? Please record matches, exclusions, conflicts and unavailable records separately.

15. For the reported five-person Twin Falls recovery, are there police, EMS, medical-examiner, drainage-work or newspaper records? Which descriptions, if any, correspond to one documented recovery?

16. Can the older blond Scout account and younger brown-haired Cub Scout account be checked separately before deciding whether they describe one boy or two?

17. For the elementary-school pupil and three Lee Britain adult employees, what enrollment, withdrawal, personnel, payroll, placement, staff-directory and historical building records survive? Can the uncertain Lee Britain/Thomas Haley location be resolved?

18. Can former pupils and staff give independent accounts without first being supplied my detailed narrative? Can a reported historical pupil-interview investigation be found in agency or district records?

19. For the cheerleader lead, can yearbooks, sports and activity rosters, red-jacket details, missing-person records and weather dates test the possible MacArthur association?

20. Can the DFW ravine hypothesis be evaluated against historical roads, curbs, fences, airport boundaries, drainage, aerial photographs and land changes before any field assessment?

21. What authorization, property access, archaeological assessment and evidence-preservation process would qualified officials require before investigating a possible burial location?

22. Can religious or institutional affiliation, orphan status, nationality, family relationships and travel claims be checked rather than presumed from remembered clothing, accents or statements?

23. Can investigators verify Sgt. Jim Alford’s service dates, assignments and any retained case-handling records relevant to my allegations? If a conflict is substantiated, can review be routed outside the affected chain?

24. How can my reported January 13, 2021 DNA collection by Texas Ranger Laura Simmons be located and its purpose clarified? Do not assume a prior collection or consumer DNA account is eligible for a particular database or use.

25. What additional identifiers would allow useful comparison with NamUs, NCMEC, NCIC or ViCAP through authorized personnel, and how should possible duplicate accounts be handled?

26. Can one liaison send manageable written follow-up questions and maintain a disposition for each lead: possible match, excluded, insufficient detail, no record located, referred, or pending?

My objective is a fair opportunity for independent corroboration. A diagnosis does not establish that an event occurred, and a memory account does not by itself establish an identity, crime, offender, burial or official case. Please retain contradictions, exclusions and earlier versions alongside later recollections.

Chapter 4 School Connected Leads

BLUE chapter

Lead register reading key: The following chapters preserve working IDs from earlier indexes. They are not official case numbers. “Reported” means described in my writings, not independently established. Ages, ethnicity, school connections, relationships and outcomes may be mistaken. Chapters classify reported settings, not evidentiary strength. Cross-references prevent counting a person twice. [A1–A3]

Working ID	Person or account	Reported outcome or limit
LB-student	Student teacher in her twenties with short brown hair; school parking lot.	Death inferred in earlier sheet; identity and fate unverified.
LB-teacher	Teacher or employee about 40–50; associated with a home incident.	Reported killing; employment and missing-person match needed.
LB-professional	School professional, possibly psychologist; long blue dress.	Reported disappearance or harm; profession and death unverified.
Stage	Elementary pupil; dark hair and bow, light clothing; intervention, backstage concealment and later cafeteria removal.	Reported killing; school/date uncertain. Earlier account contains Lee Britain/Thomas Haley ambiguity.
LB-girl	Young Mexican girl; school rear parking area.	Reported abduction; fate unverified.

The stage lead preserves my recollection that a girl tried to stop Glenda from hurting me and that Robert later carried a wrapped body or object from the school. I also recall later conversations with former pupils about a missing girl and interviews at school. These conversations are presently recollections, not independent proof of an investigation. Locate original student records, district correspondence, incident files and witnesses. My reported 1988 graduation and no repeated grades yield a provisional 1975 kindergarten estimate, not a verified enrollment date. [A2]

Additional school leads requiring reconciliation

Lead ID	Lead	Overlap or verification issue
SUP-S1	Woman associated with Sam Houston Junior High; Bird streets incident.	Not separately confirmed; possible daughter also mentioned.
SUP-S2	Possible daughter in the Sam Houston account.	Do not count unless direct recollection and separate identity can be established.
SUP-S3	Girl I recall as a fifth grader disappearing during the Thomas Haley period.	Compare with Stage before treating as another child.
SUP-S4	Nimitz high-school girl in reported Alford-garage account.	Identity and outcome unverified; school affiliation recalled.
SUP-S5	Reported burials behind a junior high.	Location/group lead; number and identities unresolved.

Chapter 5 Twin Falls Street and Neighboring Accounts

TEAL chapter

Working ID	Person or account	Reported outcome or limit
123B	Blond boy in Scout clothing, about 12 in later summary.	Reported killing/recovery.
Cub	Brown-haired Cub Scout about 8–10; blue cap; door-knock account.	Reported killing; possible overlap with 123B.
TF-slip	Teenage girl in a white slip.	Reported remains/recovery.
123G	Toddler boy about 2, described as Mexican/Latino.	Reported killing/recovery.
Rachel	Girl about 3–4; name recalled as Rachel or Rachell.	Reported death/revival attempt; name uncertain.
123F	Man with ponytail and an arm cast.	Reported killing/recovery; compare alley records.
1043	Restaurant worker about 18; reddish curly hair and glasses.	Reported killing; compare Bonanza lead.
1047	Young woman about 18 with shopping bags.	Reported killing.
1048	Blond high-school girl seeking babysitting work.	Reported killing.
1049	Girl about 7 carrying a teddy bear.	Reported killing.
4109-child	Young blond neighboring child.	Reported burial lead; compare bicycle-rider account.

My earlier summary describes five people collected at the Twin Falls drainage ditch. That scene description is not a sixth entry or proof that all people above were recovered there. Rachel, the cast-wearing man, and the two Scout descriptions need separate scene and date comparisons before any count is offered. [A1, A3]

Additional neighborhood leads

Lead ID	Lead	Comparison needed
SUP-T1	Girl with special needs who rode a bicycle to the house.	Compare with 4109-child and other neighboring-child accounts.
SUP-T2	Mexican domestic worker associated with the residence across the street.	Several workers may be mentioned; no defensible group count.
SUP-T3	Bonanza or similar steak-house worker reportedly missing after a shift.	Compare with 1043 rather than automatically add another person.
SUP-T4	Blond teenage jogger; reported abduction and backyard burial; brother recalled as witness.	Compare original narrative with other teen and burial leads.
SUP-T5	Childcare girl at an outdoor wooden lunch table, associated with Max and Edith.	Date, location, identity and outcome require a separate source sheet.

Chapter 6 Teen Athlete and Red Haired Girls

PURPLE chapter

Working ID	Person or account	Reported outcome or limit
123A	Blond cheerleader or athlete, red varsity jacket, cold or sleeting day; possible MacArthur connection.	Reported killing and cash transfer; identity and school not confirmed.
RH1	Red-haired girl about 8–10.	Reported killing; relationship and nationality unverified.
RH2	Red-haired girl about 5–6.	Reported killing; relationship and nationality unverified.
RH3	Red-haired girl about 12–15, blue dress.	Reported killing; relationship and nationality unverified.

The three red-haired girls are described as sisters in my accounts, with accents I interpreted as Irish. Their relationship, nationality, visitor status and identities remain hypotheses. A recalled adult asking for daughters may be a witness lead, not an established travel record. My DFW disposal recollections must not be used to declare a forensic location. [A1, A3]

Golf range and van accounts

Working ID	Person or account	Reported outcome or limit
1506	Mother about 30 associated with golf range or van.	Reported killing.
1507	Older male at a secondary golf-range site.	Reported killing.
1508	Older female at a secondary golf-range site.	Reported killing.
1509	Girl about 5–8 in van.	Reported killing.
1510	Girl about 4–6 in van.	Reported killing; compare 1511.
1511	Another sheet describing girl about 4–6 in van.	Reported killing; distinct identity unresolved.
1512	Infant in van.	Reported killing.

Compare the Highway 183 golf-range, creek, van and alleged Catholic-orphan accounts before combining descriptions. Similar ages or repeated narratives can reflect overlap. No new group death count is assigned. [A1]

Chapter 7 Louisiana Mall Barn and Weatherford Leads

AMBER chapter

Working ID	Person or account	Reported outcome or limit
Pineville	Child associated with a tennis court, looking for a dog near Beacon Hill Road.	Reported abduction/disposal; officers and another child/adult recalled.
123H	Irving Mall woman about 30–40.	Reported transfer; later fate unknown.
Barn	Blond girl about 17; barn/Grand Prairie route.	Reported killing and attempted sale.
Weatherford	Woman about 25–30; general-store bathroom account.	Reported killing; date and exact location unresolved.

Location and group accounts awaiting individual indexing

Group or location	Reported information	Necessary limits
Catholic institutions and orphan vans	Multiple children, Catholic women or rosaries, two vans and school-ground accounts.	Orphan status and institutional affiliation unverified; compare with 1506–1512.
Four Mexican teenage boys	Four boys described in prior accounts.	Retrieve original sheets and compare ages, setting and possible family-group overlap.
Family group	Earlier index describes boys and parents reportedly killed, girls transferred for cash, and an older woman shot.	Keep reported killings and unknown-fate transfers separate; do not add a header count as deaths.
Woods and stream children	Earlier “Joggers” group describes five preschool-age children.	Separate from teen jogger; compare original scenes and individual descriptions.
Louisiana employment accounts	Additional allegations related to Glenda and work settings.	Employer, town, period, person description and firsthand/inferred basis needed for each.
DFW ravine and vehicle scenes	Gravel road, circle/tree, fence, curbed airport road, ravine, tunnel; other accounts mention people in a damaged car.	Candidate location only; no verified remains, surveyed coordinates or count.
Regional properties	Weatherford/Palo Pinto, Dorchester, Sherman, family properties and other rural sites.	Map points are recollections; establish property history, dates, jurisdiction and overlaps.
Other grouped accounts	“Naked Max” couple, Dorchester exploitation, jewelry removal and October 8 journal additions.	Need original incident inventory; do not turn fragments or people mentioned into distinct deaths.

Chapter 8 Earlier Rural Travel and Household Descriptions

GREEN chapter

Working ID	Person or account	Reported outcome or limit
V1	Young garage visitor; long curly black hair.	Reported killing.
V2	Diner waitress about 30.	Reported killing.
V3	Waitress’s daughter about 7.	Reported killing.
V4	Waitress’s daughter about 3.	Reported killing.
V5	Young woman at highway motel.	Reported killing.
V6	Preteen girl at father’s hunting camp.	Reported killing.
V7	Girl about 10 at satellite-dish household.	Reported killing.
V8	Young woman described as a sex worker; garage.	Reported killing; occupation unverified.
V9	Girl about 10; Halloween/address-book account.	Reported killing.
V10	Prepubescent carnival girl.	Reported killing.
V11	Carnival mother about 25–30.	Reported killing.
V12	Prepubescent “Happy Dairy Girl.”	Reported killing/recovery; label is author’s identifier.
V13	White-cottage woman about 30–40.	Fate explicitly uncertain.
V14	Prepubescent white-cottage girl.	Reported lethal injury; outcome needs review.
V15	Bartender or store clerk about 25–35.	Reported killing.
V16	College-age hitchhiker.	Reported killing.
V17	Religious-literature visitor about 30–40.	Reported killing.

V19	Little-farmhouse father.	Reported killing.
V20	Little-farmhouse mother.	Death inferred; not witnessed in earlier sheet.
V21	Little-farmhouse daughter about 5–8.	Reported killing.

Chapters 4–8 retain all 53 person descriptions indexed in the October 9 Gibson packet: 5 school, 11 Twin Falls, 4 athlete/red-haired, 7 golf/van, 4 other-location and 22 rural/travel/household entries. This is an editorial entry count, not 53 confirmed victims, distinct people, deaths or open official cases. Supplemental rows and groups are not added to that count. [A1]

Chapter 9 Newspaper Clipping and Agent Identification Reference

Supplied Jim Alford clipping

Mike Coppock, “Initial search for missing woman began in South Irving after arrest.” The supplied clipping has no visible newspaper name, publication date, issue or full continuation. It identifies Sgt. Jim Alford in reporting about a search for Teri Edwards near Hunter Ferrell and South Meyers roads, with later searching at Cedar Creek Reservoir. The continuation is marked page 6A. One sentence uses “Harris”; that discrepancy requires the full article. [N1]

This clipping documents a reported police statement in a separate disappearance. It does not establish that Edwards is any person in my lead register, corroborate allegations against Alford, or establish his 1970s assignment. Please help identify the full issue and continuation and compare the case only on independent details.

Merv Mason article

See Chapter 12 for an expanded cited summary, brief excerpt and direct source link for Howard Fischer’s October 10, 2012 KNAU report naming Merv Mason. The FBI must confirm whether the named agent is the same person who visited me. [N2]

No independently verified press account connecting my unnamed lead descriptions to identified victims has been established for this packet. My own Blogger posts, books and outreach document my accounts; they are not independent corroboration. Please provide any releasable references that establish a documented case connection.

Requested exhibit handling

Please retain original dated versions and any existing receipts. If original medical letters, identity verification, prior-name information, more detailed location maps, the CD cover letter or original victim sheets are needed, please tell me how to transmit them securely. This packet encloses the supplied Alford clipping; it references the Mason article by citation and link. It does not purport to attach the original medical records or the contents of the inaccessible CD.

For every proposed match, please distinguish: source of the information; what I personally recall; what another person reportedly said; later inference; independent documentary support; contradictions; and the agency disposition. Neither repeated retelling nor AI-generated images supplies independent confirmation.

Article summary: Fischer reported on FBI interviews conducted with Maricopa County prosecutors concerning alleged coordination in Tom Horne’s 2010 Arizona election campaign. The story identifies an agent named Merv Mason and describes his use of Martha Stewart’s imprisonment as a warning about lying during an interview. It reports a defense attorney’s concern about pressure on witnesses, while noting the attorney did not describe the tactics as illegal. At publication, the story reported civil election-law claims rather than criminal charges and said the FBI declined comment because the matter remained open. This describes the article’s 2012 reporting, not current case status. [N2]

Brief excerpt: “an interview just like this.” [N2]

I include this source because it names Merv Mason. It does not establish that he is the agent who visited my home, his present assignment or location, or any connection between the Arizona matter and my reports. Please verify the identity through my prior-contact records, business card, receipts, interview documentation or other existing agency records. The supplied source is linked above for the full article; this exhibit contains a summary and brief excerpt rather than a full reproduction.

Chapter 13 Irving Location Map

Reported lead locations and reference anchors • Not confirmed recovery sites
The dots are numbered to the key below. School dots identify current address locators for source comparison; they do not prove where a historical incident occurred. The same color families used in the victim chapters are retained. [A1–A4, M1–M4]

Dot	Location anchor	Lead and precision
I1	4105 Twin Falls Street vicinity	Teal: Twin Falls, drainage and neighboring-child accounts. Address locator only; ditch side and reported recovery locations unresolved.
I2	631 Edmondson Drive locator	Blue: Lee Britain employee and stage-pupil accounts. Verify historical campus position before treating this as an incident site.
I3	3601 Cheyenne Street	Blue: Thomas Haley school-connected accounts; current campus locator.
I4	3700 N MacArthur Boulevard	Purple: possible school association in athlete/cheerleader account; not a located abduction.
I5	3033 Country Club Drive W	Blue: Sam Houston account; school reference rather than a located Bird-streets residence.
I6	Irving Mall area	Amber: mall-woman account. Approximate shopping-center area, not a specific parking space.
I7	DFW and Hackberry Creek vicinity	Green hollow dot and dashed area: candidate corridor only. Not a fixed ravine, burial point or excavation target.

Chapter 14 Sherman Location Map

Reported Sherman and Dorchester leads • Provisional address and town locators
The source grid says “711 N. HOLLEY SHERMAN TEXAS.” The current Census address-range match returns 711 N. Holly Avenue. This is a provisional geographic match, not a correction to the original witness document or confirmation of historic occupancy. [M1, M5]

Dot	Location anchor	Lead and precision
S1	711 N. Holly Avenue provisional match	Green: original “711 N. Holley” household grid. Current geocoder match; historical address, occupants and alleged events require verification.
S2	Dorchester town center	Green hollow dot: Dorchester farm account. A town-level locator, not a surveyed farm or burial location. No parcel or remains are established.

Sherman family-property and Max/Edith references without resolved addresses are not assigned additional dots. Please use archived directories, deeds, historical street indexes and original diagrams to resolve those locations without assuming that a present-day owner has any connection to the reported events.

Chapter 15 Weatherford Location Map

Reported Weatherford leads • Broad areas only
The available account identifies a general-store bathroom and a Weatherford/Palo Pinto disposal corridor without a verified store address or burial coordinate. Hollow dots deliberately indicate locator anchors rather than claimed discoveries. [A1, A3, M1]

Dot	Location anchor	Lead and precision
W1	Palo Pinto Street corridor	Amber hollow dot: a street locator, using an address-range point near the west side of central Weatherford. “Palo Pinto Road” in the account is not proven to mean this street.
W2	Central Weatherford	Amber hollow dot: city-level reference for the woman/general-store bathroom account. The store and any associated disposal location remain unresolved.

These two locators are not two confirmed cases or separate burial sites. “Palo Pinto” may refer to a street, a route toward the town, or the county; that ambiguity must be resolved before a precise site can be mapped. No body recovery is independently established by either marker.

Chapter 16 Texas Rodeo and Stock Show Overview

Documented historical events within the 1970 to 1999 research window
This map includes 24 documented event names or historical event references. Most are explicitly listed in the 1970–1971 Texas Almanac; regional additions have separate sources. It is a working historical inventory, not a complete list of every Texas rodeo, county show, youth event or stock show held across three decades. Sources do not establish that every event operated every year. Dots locate host cities, not exact historical arena parcels. [H1–H6]

Historical event existence is contextual information only. It does not establish that my family attended, that any described person was present, or that an event, organizer or venue was connected to a disappearance or crime. Compare independently established dates, travel records and witness accounts before drawing any link.

Historical venue changes

Use period programs and property records rather than assume modern facilities existed in the same form during 1970–1999. The Mesquite legislative history records construction of a new arena beginning in 1985. Fort Worth’s Stock Show and Cowtown Coliseum are different venue references; the current Stockyards program is not automatically the historical Stock Show. Austin also changed sites over its history. No route or attendance pattern is inferred from the map. [H3, H7]

Chapter 17 North Texas Event Detail

Regional context for Irving Sherman and Weatherford
All regional event dots use amber to distinguish historical event references from the color-coded person leads. The IDs connect to the event register. No body-recovery markers appear on the event maps.

ID	Historical event or program	Evidence within requested period
R05	Fort Worth — Southwestern Exposition and Fat Stock Show	1970–71 listing [H1]
R18	Dallas — State Fair of Texas livestock program	1979/1983/1986 history [H2]
R19	Mesquite — Mesquite Championship Rodeo	1970s/1980s/1999 history [H3]
R20	Denton — North Texas Fair and Rodeo	1973–2000 leadership history [H4]
R21	Denison / Loy Lake — Texoma Exposition and Livestock Show	April 7–9, 1976 notice [H5]
R22	Weatherford — Parker County Frontier Days Rodeo	retrospective history; exact years need review [H6]
R23	McKinney — North Central Texas Livestock Show	1976 contemporaneous report [H5]
R24	Howe — Local FFA Livestock Show	April 3, 1976 notice [H5]

Chapter 18 Statewide Historical Event Register

The following 17 entries come from the 1970–1971 Texas Almanac list. This establishes a published period listing, not continuous annual operation through 1999. Host-city dots are geographic aids. [H1]

ID	Host city	Period event name
R01	Austin	Austin Livestock Show
R02	Belton	Belton Rodeo
R03	Donna	South Texas Lamb and Sheep Exposition
R04	El Paso	Southwestern International Livestock Show and Rodeo
R05	Fort Worth	Southwestern Exposition and Fat Stock Show
R06	Houston	Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo
R07	Johnson City	Blanco County Fair and Rodeo
R08	Longview	Gregg Exposition and Livestock Show
R09	Lubbock	South Plains Junior Livestock Show
R10	Mercedes	Rio Grande Valley Livestock Show
R11	Nacogdoches	County Fair and Livestock Exposition
R12	Pampa	Top O Texas Rodeo
R13	Pasadena	Livestock Show and Rodeo
R14	San Angelo	Fat Stock Show and Rodeo
R15	San Antonio	Stock Show and Rodeo
R16	Stamford	Texas Cowboy Reunion
R17	Texarkana border area	Four States Fair and Rodeo

R18–R24 and their evidence appear in Chapter 17. No unlisted event should be treated as absent or inactive. A complete 1970–1999 census would require comparison of annual PRCA schedules, county agricultural-extension files, fair-association directories, local newspapers, junior livestock programs and historical venue calendars.

Chapter 19 Map Methods and Additional Sources

Map precision: Solid colored dots identify geocoded addresses or approximate named landmarks, not proven event points. Hollow dots identify broad city/corridor references or hypotheses. The geocoder calculates positions along address ranges, not surveyed burial coordinates. Modern municipal outlines and roads are orientation aids and do not reconstruct 1970s–1990s roads, property lines or campus plans. Unresolved leads are retained in the register rather than given invented coordinates. [M1–M4]

Further records requested

Please help identify historical event calendars, promoter or venue records and publicly releasable programs for specific dates associated with independently corroborated leads. Please also assist with historical campus locations, the Sherman Holley/Holly spelling, the exact Dorchester property and the Weatherford/Palo Pinto place-name ambiguity. Maps are indexes for questions, not findings of crime or evidence that remains are present.
