Notes

After issue of May 15, 1816, firm of Girardin & Shields was dissolved by mutual consent, indicating end of a one-year agreement between the two men; firm's assets were sold to partnership headed up by printers DuVal (a founding partner) and Trueheart; later reports show Cary was employed in Compiler office at this time. All three printers had foregoing connections to Ritchie's Richmond Enquirer office; he was the unnamed financial backer in this transaction ("& Co.") and remained associated with the Compiler through the ensuing ownership changes until June 1833.
