Miscellaneous References and Mentions

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

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

Note: Initially, we were careless about keeping track of where our Wales data came from. The following list of references and mentions is incomplete.
