#224 and #228 also issued on the Del label, for Delbert Barker, with their home address. These seem to be repressings.

#269 is used twice. Based on the Rite pressing numbers, Brother Herbert Gibson might have been #267. An actual #267 numbered record has never been found to our knowledge. There are two pressings for the Gibson record, one with the standard Ark label and another with no label name, a plain design, text only.

#276 is also used twice. It's possible that Mac White, with a later Rite pressing number, should have been #277. An actual #277 numbered record has never been found to our knowledge
