It is also my understanding that when the original compilers were given access to the Parker Bros. offices they found that a number of the original record books were on the floor being used as stepping stones in a flooded basement and were illegible.

I could be wrong but I think that was at Remington.

I believe that it was at the original Parker Bros. office at Meridan, Conn at not at Ilion, NY. I could be wrong.
