I too have found not just my Lawrence ancestors but many others with MANY inaccuracies. The worst of which was my ggreatgrandfather's information which is very easily proven considering he died in the late 1970s! I may just be spinning my wheels when I do this but I always try to contact the submitter and notify them of the error. I've done this probably a half a dozen times or so and I've always gotten a positive response. I think people are in such a hurry to add numbers to their family tree that they don't bother making sure it's correct. Unfortunately those are usually the same people that publish the information to the internet for all to see. Until people learn that they should use information like this as additional clues and not FACT, this problem will never go away.
