This is the same author and web site as another article recently pointed out on here (thread). I had some problems with that one. Not sure I'm expert enough to check this one.

The general content is about right. However if you want a bit more detail I would suggest a reprint of Volume III (235 pages) of the "Ohio Co-operative Topographic Survey." For those interested in an expanded (551 pages) study try Blazes, Posts and Stones by James L. Williams. I have copies of both on my desk now.
