Tracking down is right, I spent the last few days trying to “track down” my material pertaining to Charles Russell Lively. I finally succeeded.
The material I viewed does not start with the date and location of where C R Lively first started working for the D&RG. The first entry begins with

I have listed stations, dates worked, and then reason for leaving after the “to date”.
