These four persons have made great contributions to the heritage of Franklin and Sterling Hill and their efforts have been of critical, indeed essential, assistance to me, each in numerous ways. To these four individuals, three of whom I have honored with mineral names, I dedicate this volume. More so than others, they set in place a framework for future studies, and without their support and great efforts this work would have been even more incomplete. Additionally, Bauer and Baum are great Men of Franklin, who looked beyond their personal concerns to the greater needs of their communities and the local mineral culture and met those needs. These two men significantly and selflessly improved life in the Franklin area.
