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

The inherited rank-1 John H. R. Storey URL failed, while inherited candidate rank 3 resolved to the current Society /john-h-storey profile. The canonical name expands the initials and normalizes Reid capitalization; the exact source heading “John Hamilton reid Storey,” failed higher-ranked candidates, citation, provenance, and checksums remain preserved.
