Thanks Allan for such a vote of validity....... BUT..... <bg> Although much of my collection is from primary sources.... ie town, church, or family records. Alot of it is from secondary sources, ie family histories, and indexes; and about 25% of the collection is from tertiary sources.... email, letters, gedcoms, and hearsay.... I'm constantly trying to verify my tertiary sources; and spend much of my time (when available) confirm secondary sources. (These are trips to town halls, cemeteries, courts, and libraries; you know..... what most of us do for fun !!!) Often, I find errors in my primary sources..... I transcribed wrong or the town clerk wrote down the wrong information.... !! Sound familiar !!! If anyone wants my sources, please contact me, they are not available on the website. If my source is another person, I will give you that persons address or email.
