About 25 years ago the manager of the Annie Riggs Museum in Fort Stockton was quite knowledgeable about the spring. I'm drawing a blank on her name but she is no longer there as I understand. However, the museum may have information about the spring. Also, it is not unusual for some old-timer to serve the unofficial role of city historian in small towns. If Fort Stockton has one, the museum staff would know who it is. There is a short write-up in The Caves and Karst of Texas that describes the cave which underlies the spring, in case you haven't already seen it. Lastly, TSS has a bibliographic database called TexBib that anyone can download from the TSS website. You can then search on "Comanche Spring" and you'll get a list of all publications TSS knows about that mention the spring (or any cave, spring, author, topic, etc. involving Texas).

She's placed a call out for all articles related to Comanche Springs and thought I should ask the caving community to contribute. Email me at andrea.crosk...@twdb.texas.gov if you have or know of material that could help her write the report. Also, I'll let you know when the report is done and how to get a copy.
