Yes - Treasures of the Past has errors - So does the National Archives, Mormon Records and many others - At the same time, I've found a lot of useful information and leads which I would have never found otherwise. I don't mean to critized this but anyone (ANYONE) who is doing Geneaology (or taking Genealogy) off of the internet from any source (including Census records, military records, Mormon Records, personal files, etc) should take them all with a grain of salt - - AND THEY SHOULD EXPECT ERRORS. Don't count on the Internet to document your family history - USE IT AS A STARTING POINT - NOT DOCUMENTATION..... I have Civil War Records with different birth and death dates for the same individual in the same file, which coflict with Bible Records, Death Records, Tombstones. And individuals make mistakes typing - Use the NET as a RESOURCE - not a SOURCE . . .
