Edmund Hale is an AI-created historian character. The face and voice are not real. The records are.
Every report is checked against real records and real surname studies. The parish books. The census pages. The ship lists. The published name studies.
Surname history deals in likely stories. A report tells you the most probable story of a name. It says plainly when a name points more than one way. It is not proof of descent. It makes no claims about DNA. This is history from names and records.
