Documenting North America's past & present covered bridges

No project of this magnitude can be done without the help of a number of dedicated and generous individuals. The information we have so far has been compiled over many years by a few people who have been generous enough to share it with us. Although we don't know the names of everyone who has contributed to that information, we express our deepest gratitude to those who have compiled it and offered to share it.
