is ' wf 'an abbreviation for wife? I am reviewing this batch and realized that the indexer was listing spouses name when wf showed in the entry. I have looked in the PI and can't find anything about this abbreviation and spouses names aren't in parentheses. I know I may need to go back an re-review those that I have already done. Thank

    wf can be an abbreviation for wife — look at entry 20 for Dr J E Hunt — wife is Marion then comes his business address then the "r" is for residence. So you need to enter the wife's Surname as Hunt and Given Name as Marion. You'll need to fix every entry showing wf with both Surname and Given Name —- thanks for asking 😎 Mary
