Great work mining various sources for nuggets of information about the tommyknockers!
Especially like how you connected it to the names of local businesses and landmarks which shows how engrained these creatures are in the minds of those who reside nearby.
I was especially fascinated by how a folkloric transplant from the Old World somehow made it to the western states, and then evolved into a popular staple in the local lore. Anyhow, it's amazing the things you find once you start digging around…

You definitely knocked this one out of the park!
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it!
