*Year is the date that seems to apply specifically to the person, rather than the date the record was made. That is, a 1808 deposition referring to John Campbell doing something in 1770 would have 1770 entered into the Year column. **Typically points to reasoning why the person of the record corresponds to the WeRelate person.
