This is true of all docs--errors occur, then and now. The best we can do is get as many records as possible to try to sift out the truth.  I could write a book about all the errors I have found on certs and other docs.  But there is gold there too so it's worth the trouble and expense of looking for it.Virginia From: Nora FitzGerald via <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Saturday, November 28, 2015 7:21 AM Subject: Re: [NYC-ROOTS] death records errors Death records should be used as a guide not a fact unless you have backup.
