Who started that "nine pairs" rumor?

In the comment section here, Cyberthrush writes:

...Dr. Hill has always said that he has NO idea where the rumor of "9 pairs" came from and never made any such claims...

On page 230 of his book, Hill writes:

...First, I still think there is at least one pair on the west side of the river at Bruce Creek and one pair across the river along Carlisle Lakes. Then I'd say a pair at Cow Lake, two pairs in that vast forest along the channel we paddled yesterday, a pair at Lost Lake near Tilley Landing, a pair in the Reason's Lake area, a pair on Cowford Island, and a pair around Horseshoe Bend. That's nine pairs, and I'd say we've glimpsed less than 25% of this swamp..."

Ivory-bill dance

An excerpt from this article:

...Most incisive was “The Ivory-Billed Woodpecker” by Hearne, who together with Dale Fellin just joined Andrea Skowronek as City in Motion’s new artistic direction. This delightful “celebration” of alleged sightings in Arkansas of a lost species of woodpecker had whimsy and originality.
While Hearne danced with limpid grace behind a scrim bearing images of rural Arkansas, a rocking chair rocked by itself, emitting a squeak that turned out to be the squawk of the woodpecker. Likewise, an intermittent rap on the door is ultimately the peck of the bird’s beak on a tree.
At times even Hearne took flight, but then settled, resigned, into the chair. On the soundtrack were garbled NPR interviews about the bird, whose sightings appear to be as much folk legend as reality.
