Record details

Ingested 2026-09-01 from a Google Books PDF already in the owner's hands (no Google Books volume id is recorded anywhere in or beside the file – the blank identifier is correct, not an omission; a sha256 checksum of the source PDF is held with this site's copy of the volume, so the exact file a claim rests on can be identified). Complete annual volume, 477 scan leaves. Leaf numbers are the PDF's own scan-page positions, not printed folios – no printed folio has been confirmed against any leaf, so nothing here may be cited to a page number yet. Volume span and dates were read off the issue mastheads and volume title page at ingest, not taken from the filename. Kind aside, evidence grade and author are for a person to fill in from the volume itself.

Everyone this source names

This document prints 107 names. A name found this way is the weakest thing this site records: the book names the person, and nothing more is said. It is not a line in a record — the lines that actually rest on this source are listed above, each with its own confidence. 11 of the names below reach a record on this site; lines from this source have been written for 0. The rest are names and nothing else — which is an honest description of the evidence, and an invitation: if you know one of these makers, we want to hear from you.
