How to read this map

Connections join located entries in chronological stages; other recorded places stay in the text. Dashed connections pass intervening stages without a map position. They do not document a travel route or continuous service.

    8 entries without a resolved year

    These entries remain outside the dated sequence. Their position in the life cannot be established from the recorded year field.

    Dates in this sequence are explicitly recorded in the Gregorian calendar. Stated ages are labelled; other ages are calculated only within the same recorded calendar. Missing amounts remain unrecorded; zero remains zero.
