Everyone this source names

This document prints 3 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. 3 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.

Corrections

One correction has been made to what this record says. It is kept here so a reader can see that a line was wrong, when it was caught, and why it changed. Only a change to what the record says is logged — rewording a warning, restating how a document was read, or reflowing a paragraph is not a correction and does not appear.
