Site Editor Indiana Posts: 505	Does anyone remember seeing a popular article about the Rev. AE Eaton and his influence on Frederic M Halford from a few years ago? I am trying to track one down, but I don't know where it may have occurred. I'm hoping the author might even been lurking here. If so, send me a PM, please. Thanks for any help from anyone! McCafferty did one about Eaton and some others, but this is different from that one.

Northern CA & ID Posts: 2604	Hi Luke, I don't know of any article in a fly fishing periodical, but Ernest Schwiebert in his Nymphs II writes a fair amount on their relationship as well as Eaton's other contributions as the "foremost ephemeropterist of the latter 19th century". Regards, Kurt

Site Editor Indiana Posts: 505	was able to track down the author - the article isn't quite done yet. I'd assumed it had been published already, but it still is being worked on. Thanks for the help anyway, Kurt.

Northern CA & ID Posts: 2604	Hi Luke, As little as it was, your welcome. Glad to hear you ran it down. Please post a follow-up when it's finally done. BTW - I could be wrong, but I think I remember reading somewhere that Eaton was behind Halford's spur formulae for trichopterans as well. Regards, Kurt
