MaryAnn and Alexander, to try to figure out where to start recording, I listened to the last section that Joel recorded. He ends with "and procuring a passage thence, in some of the" and says that is the end of volume 1, chapter 1. That text appears on the top of page 59 of the version linked on Librivox. In the Librivox version, volume 1 runs through page 81, where chapter 1 appears to end (because volume 2 starts with correspondence). I don't know if he was reading from a different version with different pagination (or how to find that version). The only way I can think of to fix this is to re-record chapter 1 (the memoir) from the beginning. I don't mind at all doing that, but am all ears for other ideas. (I had earlier asked MaryAnn what we would do if Alexander finds something that needs re-recording in one of the sections that Joel recorded that is still to be PLed. Re-recording the memoir from the beginning would address that possibility as well.)
I've been in touch with Joel this week by PM, so why don't you reach out to him and ask how he was handling breaking up the sections.
And Joel has committed to fixing any PL notes on his sections, so as long as we get them PM'd relatively promptly (so he's still around), that shouldn't be a problem.

I believe it will be better for me not to have a hurry to PL them, waiting for the most clarity in this situation.
Thoughts?
Well, it seems the better way should be to contact the previous reader personally, just as MaryAnn suggested...
I wish you a pleasant and productive communication with him!
