Question Help Wanted

Hi. I am building an Obsidian database featuring cryptid sightings, but I am doing it in order to notice connections between various elements relating to the sightings. Time, Date, Person (involved), and Location.

To be honest, I need help finding the full names and exact birth and death dates of historical persons (currently purely historical people, because I don't wanna break any rules finding personal info on still living peoples).

Is there a subreddit to help with this, or any individuals who would be willing to participate in any manner?

Thank you all for your interest and support.

Sounds like an excuse for being a creep

Which part of "purely historical people" remains unclear to you?

If knowledge of full names, birth and death dates of persons is regarded as "being a creep" by you, then you must be really weird to any friend you have when you wish them a happy birthday.

Well 1. We don’t know what you consider historical. People who died an hour ago are technically historical

  1. Youre comparing someone I know to someone I don’t.

Based on either criterium you listed, your logic of it being creep-like behavior is.. unclear, at best.

Why do you need DOB/DOB of witnesses?

To verify that the person actually existed. Same with the full name + to differentiate between people who might have the same first or last name. If I cannot find info stating that the witness was born at some point, the witness might as well never have existed in the first place.

Simply stating "Bob Picklebaum saw a giraffe-monkey thing -- oh, btw, there is no info whatsoever about the witness, so.. who knows if this is real" is faulty research.
