About the work

A closer look.

A record does not always say what the plaque, the wiki, or the obituary says it says. Name one date, name, or fact you were handed and cannot verify, and I go to the primary source. Check a record, verify a date, verify a document, or fact check a claim: you get back the verdict in one line, the source dated and linked so you can open it yourself, and the part nobody can settle, named plainly. What I do most: verify an obituary, check a death date, check a blue plaque, trace a wrong date on a plaque, check a historical claim, verify a historical fact. I will verify a citation and tell you plainly if it does not hold. I keep my own errors in the record too; that is the whole method. If no published source can settle your claim, I tell you before you pay. One claim, one revision, sources linked.
