Six names, eighteen counties
Thirty-five of the table's rows carry a coordinator's name instead of OPEN FOR ADOPTION. Counting those names by hand, most appear once. Six names appear on exactly three rows each: Denise Wells, Cynthia Monroe, Alice Allen, Bob Jenkins, Martha Graham, and Marion D Monk.
Wave one's note already set three names side by side across the contact, about, and front pages. This note counts a different thing entirely: how many county rows in the table itself repeat the same coordinator name, regardless of which other pages that name might also appear on.
The six names and their eighteen counties
Denise Wells is named on Adams, Arapahoe, and Denver [City & County of]. Cynthia Monroe is named on Alamosa, Costilla, and Rio Grande. Alice Allen is named on Bent, Cheyenne, and Otero. Bob Jenkins is named on Boulder, Clear Creek, and Gilpin. Martha Graham is named on Elbert, Lincoln, and Washington. Marion D Monk is named on Kit Carson, Logan, and Yuma, the same Kit Carson whose own 1889 Created year sits oddly next to Greenwood's claim of coming from it in 1870, a question covered in a separate note elsewhere in this wave.
Six names, three rows apiece, eighteen county rows in total out of the table's sixty-six. That is more than a quarter of every row in the table, held by six people, out of the thirty-five rows that carry any name at all. No seventh person reaches this same three-row mark anywhere in the table, and no one of the six holds a fourth row beyond their own three, making three the exact ceiling this particular pattern reaches across all sixty-six rows checked by hand for this note.
Checking the pattern against the two-parent counties
Alamosa, one of Cynthia Monroe's three, is also one of the ten rows named from two parent counties elsewhere in this wave: its Parent cell reads Costilla, Conejos. Washington, one of Martha Graham's three, is also on that same two-parent list, with Weld, Arapahoe as its parents. Yuma, one of Marion D Monk's three, carries Washington, Arapahoe as its own two parents.
Three of the eighteen rows held by these six repeat-coordinators are also two-parent rows. The other fifteen are not. The two patterns, who coordinates a county and how that county was formed, cross each other at exactly three points without lining up as a general rule across the rest of the eighteen. A coordinator being named on three rows says nothing by itself about how any of those three rows were formed; Denise Wells's own three counties, Adams, Arapahoe, and Denver, include no two-parent row at all, while Martha Graham's three include exactly one.
| Coordinator | Counties |
|---|---|
| Denise Wells | Adams, Arapahoe, Denver |
| Cynthia Monroe | Alamosa, Costilla, Rio Grande |
| Alice Allen | Bent, Cheyenne, Otero |
| Bob Jenkins | Boulder, Clear Creek, Gilpin |
| Martha Graham | Elbert, Lincoln, Washington |
| Marion D Monk | Kit Carson, Logan, Yuma |
Below three, and the one name close to it
Two names sit just under this group, each on exactly two rows: Colleen Pustola, on El Paso and Morgan, covered by name in a separate note in this wave, and Rebecca Maloney, on Garfield and Grand, before her third, differently-titled role is counted in the note on the Unknown County page she maintains under the title Special Projects Coordinator rather than County Coordinator.
Lynn Tooley and Greg Brown each also appear twice: Lynn Tooley on Huerfano and Pueblo, Greg Brown on Larimer, already named in wave one's own Larimer note, and Sedgwick, a second county of his that earlier note does not mention.
Four names, then, sit on exactly two rows apiece: Colleen Pustola, Rebecca Maloney, Lynn Tooley, and Greg Brown. Added to the six names on three rows each, ten people between them account for twenty-six of the table's thirty-five named rows, leaving only nine rows carrying a name found nowhere else in the table at all. Those nine single-appearance names are the only coordinators in the whole table who cannot be cross-referenced against a second or third row the way every other named coordinator in this count can, a distinction visible only once all thirty-five named rows are sorted by how many times each name repeats.
What thirty-one OPEN FOR ADOPTION rows do to the average
Thirty-one of the table's sixty-six rows read OPEN FOR ADOPTION instead of a name, a count wave one's note already covers from the front page's own full list of adoptable counties. Excluding Greenwood's and Platte's dissolved rows, which carry no coordinator cell at all, that leaves thirty-three rows with a named coordinator, spread across considerably fewer than thirty-three people, because of exactly the repetition this note counts.
Six people holding eighteen of those thirty-three named rows is the single clearest concentration the table shows. No seventh name reaches three rows anywhere in the table; the next tier down, covered above, stops at two rows each. Thirty-one open rows against thirty-three named ones means the table is, by this one count, closer to evenly split between adopted and unadopted counties than either half alone would suggest, with the named half itself concentrated far more narrowly than its raw count of thirty-three first implies. A reader scanning only the OPEN FOR ADOPTION rows for a sense of the table's overall volunteer health would miss this concentration entirely, since it only shows up by counting the named half's own repeated names against each other.
What one person covering three rows actually means
A single mailto address and a single name sitting behind three separate county-page links means a researcher asking about any of Denise Wells's three counties, Adams, Arapahoe, or Denver, is in practice writing to the same inbox regardless of which of the three county pages sent them there. The table does not print this explanation anywhere; it is visible only by noticing the same name recur on three otherwise unrelated rows.
The same holds for each of the other five names. Eighteen counties, on this table's own evidence, funnel through six inboxes rather than eighteen separate ones, a concentration a reader working from any single county row alone would have no way to see. Whether any of these six people also coordinates work outside the table itself, the way Colleen Pustola and Rebecca Maloney both hold a second role on pages the table does not link to, is not something this note has checked for the other five names; the table's own thirty-five rows are the only source this count draws on.
Questions
How many coordinators are named on exactly three county rows?
Six: Denise Wells, Cynthia Monroe, Alice Allen, Bob Jenkins, Martha Graham, and Marion D Monk.
Does any coordinator appear on more than three rows?
Not among the table's sixty-six rows, as counted for this note. Three is the highest count found anywhere in the table.
Are any of these eighteen counties also two-parent counties?
Three are: Alamosa, Washington, and Yuma. The other fifteen of the eighteen are not.
