Legacy transcription retained without substantive editing; current rendered profile variants documented in the Phase 10 evidence snapshot.

Documented alternate-name rendering(s) are retained without creating a duplicate identity. The current historical action-place wording replaces only the controlled canonical geocoder field; the complete inherited place remains preserved. The current citation rendering and inherited citation remain stored independently with separate checksums.
