First task: Gender. I sorted the table by name, so that you have less of a problem to decide which gender these people are - columns I is for gender, f and m. Best --Olaf Simons (talk) 18:02, 12 June 2021 (CEST)

I have just entered the genders. I have also made a list of first names of which I do not know the gender for sure:

• Brunelle (Joineau);
• Bulfinch (Lamb);
• Filmore (Southouse);
• Handrin (Barre);
• J.-J. (Doladille);
• Joan;
• Josiah (Bundy);
• Josué (Prade);
• M. (Kemp);
• M. (De Beaulieu);
• M.C. (Bouché);
• N. (Browne);
• P. (De Gaujac);
• Shepherd (Wolf)

I was also wondering whether it is beneficial to make separate columns for second names and nicknames? Sophie de Leeuw (talk) 20:56, 14 June 2021 (CEST)

We will need qualifiers for that, too. - later when polishing the thing and solving all the remaining riddles. --Olaf Simons (talk) 00:02, 15 June 2021 (CEST)

In the column 'religion' there are sometimes question marks. I suppose this means that we think someone has religion 'x', but that we are not sure. Which qualifier should I use to indicate that? Sophie de Leeuw (talk) 12:44, 15 June 2021 (CEST)

There is a particular qualifier "how sure is this" Property:P155 - and that should also be used if you state "presumably" on a date. --Olaf Simons (talk) 14:00, 15 June 2021 (CEST)

And do not worry about the "presumably statements you have already set - they don't do any harm. We can just add how sure statements on top.
