Today, we often have more information at our disposal than they even dreamed possible – and we’ve come to realize that their information might have been wrong. When I began doing genealogy, we accepted a lot of information on faith – specifically faith that the older generations spoke gospel. Never, EVER, blindly accept hints, and never, ever ASSUME!īelieve me, I’m the queen of having to redo – so just don’t.

You can also switch on “Quick Compare” which sometimes shows additional information. That’s why they are “hints.”įor example, many census records will be spot on – but then there is that English church baptism record from decades AFTER my ancestor by a similar name died.įortunately, the first option is to review or ignore the hint.

Or at least, I assume they are obvious in that I do not want to add to the “problem tree” problem. I’m not uploading that tree for obvious reasons.

That was in the days before the internet. I have no sources for some very old information – as in – I don’t even remember where it came from, let alone a source citation. My complete tree that I’ve worked on for years is both huge and in places, incorrect. I’m using this same approach at MyHeritage too and I’ll be writing a corresponding article with instructions for MyHeritage after RootsTech.ĭirect Line Ancestors AND Their Spouses and Childrenīack in the dark ages before DNA, I only had a direct line tree on Ancestry. I still need help with several ancestors, so I’ve devised a methodology for hopefully attracting people who might have done research or have information about specific difficult ancestors. So far, my approach has generated several more hints and additional ThruLines. I know that sounds strange, but hear me out, because I’ve spent some time during the first few weeks of the year setting myself up for success.
