Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that Thomas Jefferson played the violin from his youth?

Yes. A Library of Congress exhibition page states Jefferson was schooled in music at an early age and that the violin was his preferred instrument, and a Wikipedia article confirms he played the violin. Together they support that Jefferson played the violin from his youth.
