I thought I'd posted on the Ansteorran list about these.
One of their pages claims that they normalized the names -- that is,
standardized on modern spellings. Another says that they normalized
only the given names, leaving surnames alone. Someone who did a
little searching suggested that the surnames were indeed left intact.
I'm still a little suspicious.
