While our initial information about Mount Vernon came from various goverment sources (GNIS, FIPS), we also found mention of Mount Vernon in various books and other sources.

We've created the following list to keep track of the sources that proved useful in adding to our knowledge about Mount Vernon. We hope that they will be useful to you.

Note: When we started collecting data about Mount Vernon, we were inconsistent about keeping track of where that data came from. As a result, this list of references and mentions is probably incomplete.
