The names and faces listed here and elsewhere on this web site are the people who are making it possible for future generations to learn from our fascinating biological past. What they are uncovering will be donated to the Florida Museum of Natural History in Gainesville for study, and the City of LaBelle for an exhibit. In that way, we all benefit.
We will be adding names and photos as we can. If you helped on this site and are not mentioned, please e-mail Mark Renz at fossilx@earthlink.net. To submit a photo by e-mail, please make it a JPEG and equivalent to a 4 x 6 inch print. If you send it too large or too small, re-sizing becomes a challenge with the antiquated equipment being used for this site. To mail a photo through the U.S. Postal Service, send it to Mark Renz, 213 Lincoln Ave., Lehigh Acres, FL 33972.
