註釋

Biographical sketch of William Quirk, a native of Charleston, South Carolina, who settled in Louisiana circa 1855, and fought in the Confederate Army during the Civil War; circa 1867, he relocated to Venezuela, where he grew cotton at a site 90 miles from Caracas, called Guayabita; circa Dec. 1869, he began to manage a larger plantation in the state of Aragua, near the city and lake of Valencia, "it appears that H.L. Boulton engaged Quirk as superintendent." Quirk later returned to the U.S., where he died in Florence, South Carolina, in 1895.
