    1. RE: [MISSISSIPPI] World Family Tree Volume #s, Tree #s

    3. In regard to those WFT CD's, it is important that everyone realize that the Trees were furnished by individuals who may have erroneous information, so you must VALIDATE every entry...I know of more than one case, where a researcher picked up an incorrect ancestor link with the same name and hence, they have a totally different lineage than the correct one...their haste to be the first to make their Tree available caused them to jump before they were ready... With the speed of the Internet, once the error is out there, it is virtually impossible to stop the errors from procreating themselves...So, be sure you VALIDATE YOUR DATA... >From: Adrian & Briana Etie <[email protected]> >Reply-To: [email protected] >To: [email protected] >Subject: [MISSISSIPPI] World Family Tree Volume #s, Tree #s >Date: Fri, 2 Jan 2004 21:03:55 -0800 (PST) > >There is a man on ebay that sells many volumes of Family Tree Maker's WFTs >.
