Record note

Not established: that is this record’s honest state, resting on one thing alone — A dictionary of violin makers (1890); A dictionary of violin makers (1890); A dictionary of violin makers (1896), naming this maker and nothing more. Entries from 2 books stand under this name, and the software judged them near-certain the same person. Tell us if that is wrong and we will split the record. No claim beyond what is printed there has been invented here. If more can be said, write in and tell us.
