For Ryde South, Dundas, New South Wales, Australia

Parent place Dundas, New South Wales, Australia (#9590) is geocoded via Nominatim to -33.802949/151.0440587.

No distinct 'South Ryde'/'Ryde South' gazetteer entity was found (search_places for both spellings returns nothing beyond this row; Nominatim returns only unrelated Ryde-CBD points), so the parent district's own centroid is used, matching the convention already used on the sibling 'Sleepy Creek, via Roma' row.

For Osgoode, Ontario, Canada

OpenStreetMap/Nominatim: "Osgoode, Ontario, Canada", lat 45.140883, lon -75.615463.

The row was geocoded from Wikidata Q1040650, which is OSGOODE STATION - a Toronto subway stop - giving 43.6508, -79.3865, about 300 km from the real Osgoode. Eight Martin residence events sat on that wrong point.

For Ontario, Canada

Wikidata Q1904 (Ontario, province of Canada): coordinate location 50, -85.

The row already carried Q1904 but held 46.0215, -81.739 - a point on Manitoulin Island, not the provincial centroid. Six Martin births/deaths use this row as a placeholder.

civil parish in East Lindsey, Lincolnshire, England

For Goulburn, Victoria, Australia

city in New South Wales, Australia

The English description of Wikidata Q605235, label "Goulburn", coordinates -34.754722 / 149.718611 — the entity this Victorian row had been geocoded from. It is in New South Wales, so it cannot be this place; recorded here as the evidence for clearing the geocode.

For Newport, Idaho, United States

Before adopting its current name, the Idaho-side settlement was commonly referred to as "Newport, Idaho." ... In April 1947, the former settlement was incorporated under the name Oldtown.

The stored pin (Boise) was wrong; the link to Oldtown #22473 supplies the coordinate.

For Richmond, New South Wales, Australia

Sibling row 'Richmond River, New South Wales, Australia' (#884) is geocoded -28.883333333/153.583333333 (Wikidata Q2151242, river, re-confirmed live: label 'Richmond River', description 'river in New South Wales, Australia').

Row named plain 'Richmond, New South Wales, Australia' held -33.6/150.7667 (the Hawkesbury town) despite ALL SIX of its children (Gundurimba, Mullumbimby, Round Mountain, Tweed Heads, Woodburn North, Woodburn) being Far North Coast/Northern Rivers NSW localities, nowhere near the Hawkesbury. A candidate fix via Wikidata Q1073994 was checked and REJECTED: that QID is 'Richmond', Australian federal electoral division (instance of Q2713747, an administrative division, not a settlement) at -28.511/153.363 - the same 'an institution is not its namesake' trap documented for other rows in this sweep. The Richmond River identification is corroborated instead by the existing, correctly-cited sibling row #884 and matches the district all six children sit in. This one place.update resolves the parent-fix finding on this row raised independently via children #8098 (Mullumbimby), #5780 (Round Mountain), #5962 (Tweed Heads), #7760 (Woodburn North) and #7761 (Woodburn).

For Gondoon, Queensland, Australia

[page body returned HTTP 403 on refetch this session; URL slug itself reads:] "gondoon street now spelt goondoon gladstone qld circa 1930"

Row recorded as 'Gondoon, Queensland, Australia'; the caption this row's identification rests on could not be independently re-fetched this session (403), but its wording is preserved verbatim in the page's own URL slug, and Gladstone, Queensland (#365) is confirmed current/correctly-geocoded. Flagged for a human/Chrome re-check of the full caption rather than treated as refuted.

For Summerhill, Queensland, Australia

Wikidata Q7637594 label 'Summerhill', description 'suburb of Launceston, Tasmania' - wrong by class/label for this Queensland row. Nominatim reverse-geocode of -23.097735/148.073552 resolves inside 'Belcong, Queensland, 4723' (Central Highlands Region).

Row had carried the Tasmanian Summerhill's identity and coordinates (Q7637594, -41.477/147.119, wikipediaUrl .../Summerhill,_Tasmania); cleared and re-pinned to the Queensland location.
