Thank you
I would like to thank Ted Strosser and Barry Loveland of the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission (PHMC) for supporting the use of the Fort Pitt Museum as my capstone project. I would also like to thank my professors who have been there to help me through the years. Last but not least I have to thank my parents who have always given me nothing but unconditional support.
