Answer:
I searched on a name and got some results that don’t correspond to the name I searched on. What causes this?
The historic record matching is based on a “Whois Record Contains” query. This query is broad; it is case-insensitive and order doesn’t matter. If you search on the name “Bob Grommetsworth,” all of the following would match:
– Bob Grommetsworth
– bob grommetsworth
– grommetsworth bob
– Joe Bob Grommestworth III
