Other places tied to Albert Szent-Györgyi in the record

In each of these, a source puts Albert Szent-Györgyi and the place in the same dated sentence without stating that Albert Szent-Györgyi was there. They are kept apart from the timeline above for exactly that reason: a mention is not a presence, and Quo Fuit does not quietly promote one into the other.

How to read this page

Every line above is a dated fact taken from a source, with the sentence it came from and a link back to it. Nothing is inferred, and a gap in the record is not evidence that someone was elsewhere.

A tag says how the fact is carried by its source: documented a structured, explicitly dated record, attested a sentence that states the person was there, mentioned a sentence that ties the person to the place without stating presence.
