Quo Fuit places 3 dated presences for Peter Weiss across 3 places, from 1938 to 1982.
Each one keeps the sentence it was taken from and a link to its source.

Every dot is a place Peter Weiss is documented in, on a dated record. The interactive globe carries the full detail.
Where Peter Weiss was documented, and when
1938year
Swedenattested“After the German occupation of the Czech Sudetenland in 1938, his family moved to Sweden, while Weiss was visiting Hermann Hesse in Switzerland.”source: Wikipedia: Peter Weiss
1938year
Switzerlandattested“After the German occupation of the Czech Sudetenland in 1938, his family moved to Sweden, while Weiss was visiting Hermann Hesse in Switzerland.”source: Wikipedia: Peter Weiss
In each of these, a source puts Peter Weiss and the place in the same dated sentence without stating
that Peter Weiss 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.

Two people documented in the same place in the same year is a correlation, not a meeting.
Quo Fuit will never say they met without a source that says so.
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.
