Apparently it is I who was the last person in the universe to realized that
Ancestry.com is indiscriminantly indexing Mc names as one word and as
Mc-space, but I didn't intend to set off a round of examples of _enumerator_
mistakes. However, I believe these examples come under the heading that ESM
has noted is the legal concept "idem sonans" - "if it sounds the same it is
the same." (Did I remember that term correctly, Elizabeth?)

P.S.: My apologies for twice posting in response to Joan Lowery's NJ
question - the first one was accidentally sent bore finished.
