I really don't - just what I've stumbled across online or picked up in few biographies I've read.

Robert, do you have a source for early Ranger history? I'm looking for information on the Tumlinson's. I need more info to make my next visit to the Ranger Museum & Research Center worth the trip. Also looking for info on George W. Tumlinson who died at the Alamo.

With my recent research into the Board of Regents for Oregon Agricultural College in the early 20th century, I have captured a story of hat fashion over a 30 year span. It is interesting to see the styles of hat worn by "professional" men, they were ex-governors, business owners, lawyers and senators in Oregon who were appointed to oversee the Land Grant College in Corvallis

1901 (already posted previously) shows a predominance of black hats, mostly Derbys, with a Homburg or two:

Circa 1915, the style was Homburg for these men. Note the flamboyant guy on the far right. Also our fist woman Regent, very progressive!

After WWI, the Regents in 1920. More of a selection of hat styles, the fedora is taking hold. Deep center crease and brims not very wide.

By 1930, the Board of Regents would be replaced by the Oregon State Board of Higher Education that has lasted until today. The fedora is in full swing, but a more formal Homburg is worn by OAC President Kerr on the far left. This image is dated 1928.

I look more at hats in my research images because of my new addiction. It is just my level of history geekyness. I hope folks will enjoy this comparison of styles over the first three decades of the century.

Nice job, Red.

Dated a girl for awhile that raised POA's. Never understood the interest in the breed until now.

Notice the absence of ladies in the pre-Prohibition photos, and the abundance of females post-Prohibition.

A photographer for Look magazine captured this circa-1930s image of men flocking around the help-wanted notices outside the Sherman Employment Agency, on Sixth Avenue. (New York)

I like the hexagon crease on the left.
