The problem is how to prevent the injury. Expert genealogists are created in one day - it might take several years to realize one is not an expert. One very capable researcher determined our GGG Grandfather because "no one else was around who could be". I've found at least 4 others "around". I've determined 5 generations earlier based on preponderance of evidence, I'm honor bound to note that POE is not proof - Let the Buyer Beware. That's the closest to a solution that I can come. Distinguishing between what we think, or wish, and what we know is as important as the presentation - really, more so. Hugh [email protected] (J. Hugh Sullivan)
