Jim and Sylvia Konecny were very active in the early days of ESCONI.  Jim held a few posts on the ESCONI board, including president from 1966 to 1968.  Eventually, they moved to Arizona.  A few years ago, they donated a large portion of their collection of Mazon Creek, Ordovician, and Silurian fossils to the Field Museum.
