Here’s where you come in
Can you identify which account records the search and which records the agency confirmation?
Compare the dated sources and keep the public contribution separate from the work that confirmed the result. If a source leaves something unanswered, leave that question open.
Keep the exact links, your own notes and questions together in a Research File in Almost Solved. You can return to the record as you find more information.
