Hi Jörn, Once again, thanks for the response.
After a little while copying & editing the TreeBankNameFinder class source, I added methods to provide this parse processing feature: https://github.com/amb-enthusiast/CoreferenceTest/blob/master/src/dev/amb/opennlp/TreebankNameFinder.java See the addNERsToParse(NameFinderME, String tag, Parse inputParse) method. It appears to work as expected, which is great. Feel free to use as you see fit - it may be of some use to other developers.
