HELLO CUSINS, This is what I am sure is the MAIN Reason for the distrust of The family stories in the local HERITAGE BOOKS THERE is nothing wrong with the Family Story, IT IS that we see different members of the families VERISON THERE OF CUZ AT CUZ AT, You are SO RIGHT, when it comes to cousins having different information about each other's families. 2nd, 3rd, 4th cousins, etc. all could have different information about the families because birth and death information was usually only written down ONCE (either mama's or grandma's bible) so word of mouth information back during those times usually changed in variation, as often as it was told.
