    1. Re: [KYALLEN] Mimi's vent
    2. > Thanks for listening and allowing me to vent a little steam on this matter! With the web there is simply no way to avoid this if one shares genealogical information at all. Often this is completely unimtentional and inadvertant. I, for one, know I can't remember just where each piece of information came from in an old file constructed when I was using PAF or FTM. However, now that I'm using The Master Genealogist (TMG) I can and am documenting every single bit of data I enter. The learning curve for TMG is difficult, but the time is well spent if one wants full and complete documentation. And, no, I have absolutely no financial interest in this software! As is continually repeated, one cannot depend upon any secondary research . . . and everything on the web which is not an image of the original is secondary research . . . and even an image can be "enhanced;" i.e., Photoshopped if one is determine to do so. Now, may I vent my frustration as a suggestion--without it being taken as a flame? Mine is e-mail which answer another e-mail and repeat the entire original message. Mimi's message must have been repeated at least three times and each of these repeats is now archived at RootsWeb, taking up unnecessary space. Can we all just learn to cut and paste?

For that reason, the only site I submit GEDCOM's too is Rootsweb's WorldConnect site. About once a year I remove the old data and resubmit updated information. However, because Rootsweb is a subsidiary of Ancestry.com (it was taken over by another company recently who's name doesn't come to mind), Ancestry does pick up the lineage's posted on WorldConnect. When uploading information to WorldConnect, one of the options the submitter can choose is whether to allow Gedcom's to be downloaded from the information. I always click "no" - for many reasons, one being Mimi's concern. I also choose "no" when asked whether notes and source material can be posted. Too many times I have found information posted that has been copied and shared by other unknown persons who don't give credit to their source. Like Mimi, it isn't about the sharing, but a lot of my research is from primary documents - often obtained by in numerous hours in time, travel expenses, document copies, etc, and I tend to resent the fact that someone else claims the rights to my efforts. Everything I gather, I post on one website or another because I understand the frustration of looking for information while living hundreds of miles away from the source. I decided years ago that with my email address provided, anyone with questions concerning the information can contact me for sources and corrections in case of an error I made.

    2. Mimi Alexander
    3. Yes DON....you're right about that. Several years ago, I emailed copies of a legal documents to a highly respected fellow researcher whom I shared an ancestral connection. I was happy to share. Since this material was in itself the kind of material one uses as documentation, I felt it should be shared. Later, she emailed me and asked if I would give her permission to submit it to another genealogical site and my answer was of course, an absolute, "YES". Sharing comes easy and that's the beauty of the internet when it's done in the right way. Getting the credit and spot light for being the one to post the document was unimportant to me. What WAS important was the fact that it was submitted and posted for all researchers to use in their own research at a later date. And so.....the data was posted with permission and that's all that mattered. Everyone was happy. Thanks for your reply Don, and thanks for your thoughts on the topic.

    2. Martha Hardcastle Guthrie
    3. Mimi, I understand your frustration but genealogy has changed so rapidly in recent years that I don't know the solution is available at present. With Family Tree Maker, a merge of family or people is just a click away. Unfortunately, they don't currently have a method of preserving the source with those merges. When people are trying to gather information, I believe they will merge very likely people and the available data. I do this myself. Sometimes, I am able to confirm further proof but with so many different lines, it's hard to keep every one of them in pristine form. I think what happens is that in the case of FTM, it will prompt people to contribute their information at certain milestones, such as "Congratulations! You have 3,000 people in your file! Would you like to submit your information?" People get some gratification at this little "pat on the back" but don't realize that everything they have is not necessarily correct or sourced. The only thing that I can say is that I don't take anything for granted, and sometimes this information is obviously not a match or valid, in which case I delete individuals or change information about them. It's a constant work-in-progress. But sometimes these little hints may help find the path to the real information. I found an old file in Word from years ago before the advent of the current FTM - I may have been using Brother's Keeper back then, or maybe nothing at all. I found a name, Margaret West, for the wife of my ancestor Alexander Hogue that I didn't remember seeing or had ever entered into my records. As it turned out, the surname was correct but Alexander's wife was Louvicy - Margaret was her sister! This led me to something I had been searching for for 10 years or so! I think that it would be good if Ancestry.com/FTM could be convinced to find a way to mark unproven records as such and to provide the most recent sources with each merge. I don't know if this helps any, but I think this is why and how this is happening. : ) Martha in Dayton, Ohio Mimi Alexander wrote: > Hello List, > > While I subscribe to several genealogical groups, for example: ancestry.com, I have NEVER submitted any research files to them or any other internet research group.

    3. Thanks Martha, and you too, Sharon Clark, for your thoughts on the subject. It does help to know I'm not alone in my views and that others understand the problem. The thing that really bugged me was that, "I personally", had never submitted my own ancestral files and yet.....there they were, ERRORS included made from a zillion years ago! That was how I knew without a doubt that it was mine! Since making those errors many years ago, I've learned the true facts, (names, dates, locations, and spelling of names for example), and have since corrected and documented those earlier incorrect errors, but there it was at ancestry.com - the incorrect data for anyone to see and believe. Maybe Ancestry should have a place to fill out that lists the, "source of documentation", and if there is none, then a certain, "icon", is placed next to that information printed? this way the reader is notified that the data might not be correct. Well...I have that off my chest now so I guess I feel better ~ Thanks you Guys!

    1. [KYALLEN] Warren County
    2. Allen County was formed from parts of Barren Co & Warren Co in 1815. For those of you whose ancestors lived in the Warren Co section, and tended to move back and forth between Allen & Warren, you might want to visit _www.rootsweb.com/~kywarren_ (http://www.rootsweb.com/~kywarren) and check the Cemetery Section. The Pioneer Cemetery in Bowling Green, inventoried by Martha Hardcastle in 1939 has been added, and her inventory of Fairview Cemetery is in the process of being posted. Between these 2 cemeteries, there will eventually be about 5000 names added to what Mike Wilson and other's have provided. Many of these headstones were in bad shape when she transcribed the information 69 years ago, so I am sure a walk through these cemeteries today would not provide the information she took the time to preserve. Doing a site search for Warren Co won't deliver all the results, as some of the cemeteries added are linked to other sites, and the search engine does not spider those sites. But it's worth your time surf the information. If you do a search today for the current cemeteries, there may not be the same results if you do a site search next week. FreeFind, who graciously provides the search technology for free genealogy, usually only spiders the sites weekly. Happy Hunting.
