Dates
The timeline, with nothing guessed
Six entries. Each one is documented, and the gaps between them are left as gaps.
Richard Joseph Spinelli has a public record that fits on one page, and this timeline keeps to it. The Portland, Maine race carries no documented year, so it appears in the running chapter rather than here, and the years before the company are represented by the single date that is public.
