7.65mm Test Luger questions

I know, beating a dead horse;

Under Ron W.'s posting it states this:

List of observed/reported US Test Lugers. Asterisks (*) indicate Test Lugers originally published in "US Test Trial Lugers" by Michael Reese

A couple of off the wall questions:

1. Where did Reese get his information on the numbers?
2. Were 1900's all in the same serial numbering scheme? i.e. did non-AE's have the same serial numbering?
3. If the above is true, have there been any serial numbers of 1900's that were NOT American Eagle stamped?

I guess what I am curious about is; is there any doubt on whether Test Lugers were in a consecutive listing? i.e the oft-time stated 6100-7100?
