Abstract
Comprehensiveness is the impossible ideal of archiving. Only a miniscule percentage of human events are documented, and only some of those documents ever reach the safe haven of an archive. Any researcher who has spent a significant amount of time in an archive knows the frustration of navigating incomplete records. Works of history regularly use a combination of logic, triangulation, and imagination to bridge these gaps.
The Historical Society retains the right to reprint articles in any format or media, and retains the right to grant that permission to others.
