    1. Documentation!!
    2. Debbie Mauelshagen
    3. I have some questions for "ya'll"... I do not use WFT so I need to know how well it is documented. I have looked at several different ged's from different people on the Sasser List and found various codes in the "note" field but no sources such as: 1820 Laurel Ky Census or XXX Co Marriage bonds, etc.. With out the proper documentation it is no more than a tool. The ged's that I rec'd don't even have my parents and immediate family's data correct. I am afraid that the information on WFT is being considered to be more than it really was intended. It is a tool and should not take the place of having the actual documentation research. I have no problem using someone else's research if they also can produce physical documents or copies of documents to back their claims. Now having said that and hopefully not offended anyone. Does any one out there have any physical documentation on the ancesters of Henry/Heinrich/John Henry (every one has slightly different names for him) Sasser. He is the one was married to Nancy Kirby. Some of their children were Keziah, Adin, Piety, Dixon, Malindy etc. I have Henry and Nancy documented but I have nothing before him. Even if you just know what Census and where then I can do some of the checking myself. I have seen that Henry's father was William who was married to Martha Bishop but I need the documentation for them and those further back as well. I would like to expand my web page to include the rest of the Sasser lines but I need the documentation. To many mistakes can be made I don't mind a little speculation but it needs to be identified as such. I want to change what I have from my ancestors to the oldest documented Sasser and his descendants which would include most of you. I am going to make a seperate page for the Sassers and tie in text of stories and information that has been and is being provided via the Sasser List. I intend to document as much as I can so as I go through my old email I may be in touch with some of you for sources, page #'s etc. If you are interested in helping me please let me know what you have or where I need to look for what I need. Thanks Debbie Mauelshagen
