I've just begun working on Bureau of Land Management Tract Books. Who are "Other's" Given Names?

The image shows more than one name. Should each name be given it's own entry or should all subsequent names after the first, be entered in the "other's" box?

    Can you share the batch? Each name gets its own entry, occasionally there are two names listed with the same sale. That would be the "other" name. Often seen as "for" or "by".

    Usually there are 4-20 names per page, remember to index every name as its own entry, including any lightly written ones.
