Now it's time for me to add my $.02 cents about this discussion Dave started. I've very new to genealogy research via internet. I, too, did it the old way for quite some time. However, the internet is a wonderful tool! Key word here is Tool! What's always the first place to start? Interviewing relatives, right? Now, how much inaccuracy do we find there? Plenty! But, it's a tool. No matter what our primary or secondary source is, we do have the privilege to accept what we find until it's disproven. Our responsibility is to prove everything - no matter what the source. I think the idea about two sets of records may be beneficial, but if a record contains an erroneous statement about one thing doesn't mean that it can't help someone else who finds it on a website and uses it for their purposes - it may be correct for theirs. Perhaps unverified (or not verified by two or more sources) should be labeled as such. But left off a website - I vote no. I'm still trying to track down the source some really off the wall records on some of my husband's family. But, it's out there somewhere, internet or not, I don't know. But do I want it thrown out? No! I want to find the source, correct it, and move on from there. Some of it may be incorrect, but at least it helped fill in a few blanks spots where it wasn't. And I thank the stars for duplication. It saves me time! I can see where better identification of sources would help, however. Linda Hollenbach Hartzfeld
