Description
An account of the resource
The PDF document lists the names of people who are mentioned in the Speedway Collection. The tags find the items that include the names.
Most of the information is from the items in the collection. Other sources are consulted for clarification. Sometimes we have not determined whether variant spellings of names refer to a single person or two different people. In those cases, the names are listed separately instead of as variants of a single name.
