    1. Re: [OHLORAIN] Going crazy!
    2. Nancy, I have encountered the same problem. It took me two years to prove someone had placed another Solomon instead of my great grandfather, with his parents. Finally death certificates and baptismal certificates on both cousins Isolved it but the incorrect information remains out there. So I have decided: 1. not to share except with two close cousins collaborating on same work-we all agree not to share with people researching collateral lines. When we finally are sure we have documented well enough we will publish. 2. To always put sources of my info in my tree-I was a little lazy about this in the beginning and now regret it as I am not sure of where I got some info. It is difficult to say no to some who request but I simply indicate we are not sure of all the data yet and are only sharing in this tight circle for time being. 3. While I can't get others who have put incorrect info on their websites and other sites to correct this and many other erros, I have resigned myself to the fact that when our document is posted others researching the lines will check all sources. We are really operating as historians and we should abide by accepted methods of documentation. Mary Boehnlein
