Interesting concept. Where did you source the data from? Are they from public records or Wikipedia?

I think some of them are definitely from Wikipedia, if you search for "Brisbane" you'll get a couple of job-descriptions, as well:

Arthur Morgan (Queensland politician) ---- Paddington, Queensland, Brisbane, Queensland, Australia

And that one's definitely from Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arthur_Morgan_%28Queensland_pol...

Fun.

Only two deaths at motels? Good start. Also, searching for "John" provides fast results on a single page. OK, but searching for "e" is not as quick.

There is a usual degree of data inconsistency, for example for "Titanic".

How is the data ordered?
