Research notes

[SRC-074] Brother of PER-000013.

[31 Jul 2026] MERGED PER-000445 into this row. Both rows carry FamilySearch id GHDB-CQT, so they are one person. Kept PER-000182 ('Albertus Gerhardus van RensburgH'); merged PER-000445 ('Albertus van Rensburg'). Exposed by the _FID backfill of 31 Jul 2026, which gave nearly every person an id to collide on; before that these had no shared key. Check GHDB-CQT on FamilySearch before assuming the upstream tree needs anything - it is usually the LOCAL tree that is stale (LEAD-0021). Moved across: tree id=. DISAGREEMENTS, kept rather than resolved - the FamilySearch id settles these in one click: display_name: kept 'Albertus Gerhardus van RensburgH', PER-000445 said 'Albertus van Rensburg'; given: kept 'Albertus Gerhardus', PER-000445 said 'Albertus van'; surname: kept 'van Rensburg', PER-000445 said 'Rensburg'; line: kept 'van Rensburg', PER-000445 said 'Rensburg'.

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.
