P.S.
The earliest mention of James Vernor in connection with Ginger Ale that I can find in the Detroit newspapers still stands at 1884 ...
Detroit Free Press ~ June 28, 1884
Footnote:
I continue to challenge myself (and everyone else) to find a time-period reference (other than the 1911 Trademark that says "About January 1st 1880) that's earlier than 1884 and connects James Vernor in any way, shape or form with Ginger Ale. And if someone does find an earlier time-period account, my offer to send them a free "ACL BOOK" still stands.
"Time-Period" = Actually published between 1866 and 1880, and not from one of the later so called historical accounts.
