    3. -----Thanks Sharron I will pass it on Hi John, You can go to any Family History Center (LDS) and get a form to fill out and send with the correct data to amend the AF. Anyone can and does submit info to the AF and IGI. Most sub,issions are done by dedicated researchers and check out. But there have been a number of bogus genealogists since the 1800's that took money and cobbed together genealogies for families. I, myself, ran into a problem with Carpenter lines...no true genealogist could have made so many fauklty connections or have such a mees up. One can understand not knowing all descendants but that is not the same as several fathers, etc. Some people submit what they think is correct after having paid a genealogist such as Anjou or one of the other famous genealogist that did bogus work, to do their fmily tree. I have heard he alone did beween 80-130 genealogies and many are in books all over the US in libraries and LDS files and he wasn't the only one. I hope you help in straightening out the Carpenter line as it is the worst that I have seen when it comes to descrepencies in AF. Sharon Genealogists never die they just lose their census.
