October 14, 2026 — Archive AI, evidence placement: Associated with Alexander Stewart as research context for his Stuart/Stewart probate-index investigation. This foreword explains how to interpret the accompanying Goodrich index and its dates; it is not a record naming Alexander, proof of his death date, or proof that any indexed estate belongs to him. Earlier review preserved below.
Index explains its derivation from General Index to Estates plus some unindexed files. Asterisk marks a date other than actual death. Read before using index dates.
9 October 2026 — unmapped evidence review, Archive AI: Repository or research-method reference rather than evidence naming a particular archive person. Retain without an arbitrary person association.
