be aware of some names in the IGIs


By Joseph de Leon - Posted on 09 July 2013

I've found a few errors in the names of some IGIs.

There are some IGIs with names which INCLUDE their place of residence. i.e. I've found many names like Jose MARIA DE LA TORRE (plus the surnames)in which the Indexer mistakenly ADDED their residence (Maria De La Torre)as part of their name! Of course there are many OTHER names and residences this has occurred.

If the name looks "odd" in comparison to their parents, it's better to look at the actual digital image of that event. This is a good way to eliminate duplicate people.
