I've been playing around with Red Shift calculations
and this is probably a simple question for anyone
experienced in the field, but I'm looking for
the best data that gives both the Z shift
and distance measured using a method other than
the hubble constant. In other words I'm looking
for the data that the Hubble constant is calculated
from. I'm only looking for light emitting objects
not quasars or radio sources.

I've looked in Google and a couple of beginning
astromomy books which had a couple of charts but
not the actual measurements. Also they seem to not
give any estimate as to which measurements are the
best or most accurate. If someone could please
point me to a textbook or the original papers containing
the best estimates of stellar or galactic distances
together with the corresponding red shift for those
objects it'd be a big help to me.

Thanks in advance.
