A Regional Ufology Network: The UFO Investigators League and Its Kentucky and Ohio Chapters (1970s–1980s)

To the point

Regional UFO-investigation groups formed in the 1970s–80s, such as UFOIL (founded by Timothy Green Beckley), KUFOIL in Kentucky (John Daily), and OUFOIL in Ohio (Charles and Geri Wilhelm), creating a loose network that produced manuals and newsletters and documented notable sightings and cases across states.

Founded by Timothy Green Beckley in the early 1970s and re-emerging in 1990 at Box 753, New Brunswick, NJ 08903, the UFO Investigators League (UFOIL) expanded into state chapters such as Kentucky’s KUFOIL (John Daily; Big Bone Lick State Park 1981; Fouke Monster 1982) and Ohio’s OUFOIL (led by Charles Wilhelm and Geri Wilhelm; Dayton/MUFON connections) while publishing the UFO Investigators League Field Manual (1979; revised 1992) by Harold D. Salkin and Beckley, the UFO Spotters Newsletter (1990), and Govt.-Alien Liaison? Top-Secret Documents to broaden an international network of investigators with perks like a membership card, investigators certificate, field manual, and a newsletter, and fostering a regional network of investigations around notable cases such as Goshen landing, Loveland Lizard, Mothman sightings, Preble County Creature, and Ross Landing, involving figures like Leonard Stringfield and Ron Schaffner and connections to MUFON.
