Hi, Missing Lincs,     Let's devote this month to "Advice to the Newbie".  What hints or suggestions do you have for people new to this addiction?  Let's hear your ideas.  You can also share mistakes made, since that's a good way to learn.     One of my mistakes was to believe all the information I got from a lady who told me who my ancestors were (in one line) and where they came from.  It turned out to be a family with similar names, but not the same people.  But "backing out" all the information I had entered into my Family Tree program was a time-consuming affair.  After that, I learned to ask for sources so that I could verify things.     I'll bet some of you can outdo that!        Lou (list admin.)
