And I read somewhere, that of LOST CITY, the first stone was already
recovered by the locals, when the people from the network arrived.
But neither can't remember where.

Best!

PRIBRAM - Fell April 7, 1959 - first recovered meteorite with a known
orbit - 19 fragments found, largest 4.3 kg - total 9.5 kg recovered.
                        I read somewhere that some fragments were found
prior to the
trajectory and orbital calculations. Can anyone confirm this with a
reference?

LOST CITY - First triangulated meteor photographed by the Prairie
Network in the U.S.A. Fell 3 Jan 1970 and found 9 Jan 1970. Total
wt. 17kg.
                     - I read somewhere that other fragments from this fall
have
since been recovered. Can anyone confirm this with a reference?

INNISFREE - Fell 5 Feb 1977 - Photographed by the Canadian MORP
Fireball Network - 11 days later a 2.07 kg sample was found a
                            few hundred meters from the predicted
computer projection. 8 other fragments have since been found, Total
mass 3.79 kg.
