Short answers, pulled from the story.
Charles Albert Browne Jr. chaired a committee dedicated to establishing the journal Chymia in 1947. Four other members joined him on that founding team including Claude K. Deischer, Rudolf Hirsch, Herbert S. Klickstein, and Henry M. Leicester.
Tenney L. Davis served as editor-in-chief for the inaugural issue published in 1948 until his death in 1949. He oversaw the selection of articles for that initial release and guided the project during its formative years.
Twelve volumes of Chymia stood as a testament to early scholarship from 1948 until 1967 without interruption. The original annual cycle ended with volume twelve in 1967 before merging into Historical Studies in the Physical Sciences.
Almost all articles appeared in English throughout the twelve volumes while a few pieces were written in French or German. This linguistic diversity reflected the international nature of the field and included perspectives from across Europe and North America.
The year 1969 saw a major shift when Russell McCormmach established a new publication called Historical Studies in the Physical Sciences. Chymia was incorporated into this larger entity at that time after running from 1948 until 1967.
