HI I have been doing genealogy for quite a while. TAKE HEART BEGINNING GENEALOGISTS! The web is great! I have found real live cousins I have been missing and in most places great people to help me. So far, I have not found very much information that was in error but I usually make sure I try to check it with other sources. After all, EVEN original sources can be wrong. EXAMPLE: one relative put his brother's birthdate on the marriage license! He wanted to be 21 not 17! Family research is fun! I volunteer and transcribe a cemetery for a webpage that someone has put online with cemeteries in PA. If any beginner or not so beginner needs help, write me! I may not have the answer but I will try to help. take care debi -- SIMPLE PLEASURES ARE THE BEST, ALL THE LITTLE THINGS THAT MAKE YOU SMILE AND GLOW. __________________________________________________________________ Your favorite stores, helpful shopping tools and great gift ideas.
