Nice. Lots of citations in a such small section! 

With a quick read of the raw .gramps file, I only noticed one thing that gave me immediate pause. In the description for Event E13779 (a probate record), it starts with a "less than" symbol (&lt;). "< £125000"

I always worry about whether software will choke on a text value that starts with a piping character. (It is something I've often targeted as a beta tester. Look for expressions used in that application's parsers to control processing and forcefeed the application those symbols in unexpected places.) 

I don't expect that changing that description will make a difference. But we might get lucky.

Yes, it does.

Done. Thank you.
