Even when you see the absolute same information on the same people from a ton of subscribers that doesn't mean it is correct as too many people copy without verifying with actual records/documents. Noooo, the websites do not hire people to verify what their subscribers submit. It would be far too costly. Actually if you provide them with documentation that someone has incorrect information, they will not do anything about it Probably because they would need a legal department to deal with all the people asserting what they have is correct. This is true of all genealogy websites. Ancestry.Com and a free website, FamilySearch.org, each have records and subscriber submitted family trees and you should distinguish the difference. Both of those two websites probably have more records online than all the others put together but subscriber submitted family trees should not be viewed as accurate until you have actually verified the information. I view any website that only has family trees as a trash website. Now with records, sometimes they have the original images and sometimes only on an index but when only on index it is far less costly to write the county courthouse, state library or whatever to get a copy than to travel many miles across country to get it. Now where family trees can be helpful if you use them as clues or hints only as to where to look for records on someone but never take it as fact. If you put your tree on Ancestry.Com they will give you hints. If it from another person's family tree I many times don't bother to look. I certainly wouldn't add family members to my tree just because someone has them. They will also give you hints from the records they have and you should use some discernment before accepting that it belongs to the person on which they gave you the hint It is like doing a search on your search engine and you come up with a lot unrelated things because the computer see some similarity. Well, the same thing with Ancestry.Ccm's hints. There computer system sees some similarity to the person you have in your tree. Now, no way is everything online. Use the web as a tool only. Pull out your birth certificate. See, it has the names of both of your parents including your mother's maiden name. See if your parents and grandparent have theirs. Also death certificates usually have the names of both parents of the deceased including mother's maiden name. Now you will get a time when births and deaths weren't recorded. In the U.S. it can differ from state to state. Church records for baptisms, confirmation, marriage and deaths usually will have family information. Maybe some of your family has some birth, marriage and death certificates on your ancestors. Maybe they have baptismal, confirmation, marriage and death records on your ancestors from their churches. Maybe they have some old wills, deeds, family bibles, family photos, letter from elderly and deceased relatives This is how you start. |
