A place rather than a person, one of the Babylonian localities exiles came back from, and the families from it could not prove their descent.

Who this is

Not a person but a place name, one of several Babylonian localities named in Ezra 2:59 (called Addon in the parallel list of Nehemiah 7:61) from which a group of exiles returned to Judah after the exile but could not prove their genealogical descent from Israel. Its exact location is unknown.
