If you used specific sources not avialable totohers, (bible,s letters, etc) cite, with some way to contact the owner. if you are quoting someone's family/oral hsitory, then say so "Aunt Tillie said, "blah, blah". If a case has been built on common sense, preponderance, fine -- just say so. if it's a case of "I think" or it hasn't been proven,---- per Cuzzin Herbaceous who always said but never gave anyone some back up evidence----say so. we never know what someone else knows, can prove, or help disprove--either way, we win. Sometimes a one liner makes it all "drop into place". have a great weekend with your favorite folks--dead or alive. LOL Sheila // Firehair
