Research notes

[TREE] Added 6 Aug 2026 under LEAD-0116, to make a descent this site ALREADY ASSERTS walkable in its own data. Generation 7 of the anchor family's direct ancestry, on one of the ten lines set out in [S021]. NO PLACE IMPORTED, per 5. Dates as the tree gives them. This row exists to carry a link, and a tree is not a register: nothing here is established until the Cape records are read, which is what S021's provisional banner says.

These are working notes, not finished prose: they carry the reasoning, the corrections and the things still marked to verify. They are kept here so the page itself can read as what is known.
