Candidates Work List

This is my working list of candidates to include -- I'm not yet sure if they are related to me or not! As candidates are eliminated (proven not related) they are marked appropriately (~~THUS~~) and an explanation included. They are kept in the list in case future research proves they can be included. (And to keep them from popping up on the list again!) Never discard good research!

Proven candidates' names are marked with an asterisk (*) until they can be added to the database.
