What the evidence supports

The reported 217/292/75 profile counts and 128/123 URL-audit counts are cited project snapshots, not newly discovered ensembles or current totals. The master name list is not a census of distinct continuous organizations.

Limits and open questions

Preserve research scopes separately: before 1941 means through 1940 for this submission, while the website remains all eras and all musical-group types. Tulsa’s December 1941 municipal band is still in website scope. W. F. Ewing’s circa-1925 photograph belongs outside the 1910s section. Existing military lineage claims are not independently upgraded from project-site citations.

Confidence detail: high. Evidence notes are not a count of distinct ensembles.
