I am starting to add miscellaneous RIDDLE data as I happen to run across it in my research. The items below are things that do not currently relate to my own line, but I wanted to keep track of in case we found a connection later. I have done my best to get everything correct, but it is every researcher's responsibility to go back to the original record to verify it for accuracy. Good luck!
