Footnote:
* After 1940, Lloyd unexplainably stopped exhibiting his work (with the exception of the Ohio Edison showing). The Lloyd family suggests that this was most likely a result of his father's illness and inevitable passing. Also, John Lloyd traveled to paint more than this chronology suggests; however, the time frame for many of these trips was not definitively determined, and therefore not able to be included in this chronology.
