If it's your "real job", then I simply can't help but to quote Deuce Bigelow: "I'm gonna kill my guidance counselor!"

No one is charged with "reviewing any previously unknown..." - the world isn't that organized. The SABR Pictorial History Committee is charged with trying to maintain a correctly identified image index for major league players, coaches, umpires. However, SABR is a volunteer organization - you do what you want. My interest is 19thC and Deadball Era, so that what I write and post about.
You should say "facial comparison" as opposed to "facial recognition." Any perception of expertise on my part is based on published articles and net54 postings dating back to 2008. There are people who do that for a living working for major police departments, FBI, etc. I am not one of them, but I try to learn from them.
If you're really interested in all this, IMO - the best thing I have written on this subject can be found on pages 1-3 of:
