David, I agree with Jim here. Anything in doubt should be run by the rootsweb tree. Explain what you did and why you did it. As Jim says, plenty of people will not be shy about giving their thoughts on the matter. I hope neither Jim nor David will object to my sending this out for peer review. The point is to share our work we do on the ancestry with the entire list. Even if they opt not to participate, many of them have done extensive research and may wish to help you on this or that line.

If some has reason to believe otherwise, I'm sure they won't be shy - that's the peer review. Also, even if something slips by for now, folks are likely to find it some day and bring it up for discussion. > > Jim - Sent from my iPhone - FaceTime! > > On Oct 5, 2011, at 6:33 PM, DAVID BROWN <[email protected]> wrote: > >> >> Thanks Jim. I see now the mistake I was making on this point. >> >> Another question for you both: I think one of you mentioned a peer review function, but I'm confused as to how this works if the participants on the tree do not see the changes. For example, I added parents and grandparents for Anne Morehead (who married Bartholomew Dameron) based on a bond record I found from Northumberland Co., VA as well as per the research of Alice Algood (who relied, I think on some of the research of Isabel Gough). Do I need to post to the NN List that I made these changes? >> >> Thanks! >> >> David >> >> >> >> From: Jim Bartlett <[email protected]> >> To: Craig Kilby <[email protected]> >> Cc: DAVID BROWN <[email protected]> >> Sent: Monday, October 3, 2011 7:55 AM >> Subject: Re: [VA-NORTHERN-NECK] OK - there is one hard NN Tree rule... >> >> David/Craig >> >> I'd recommend using abt, bef, aft, etc as appropriate. I think they show up, as typed, on a persons page and on the pedigree charts. I recommend you print out a Pedigree Chart from time to time to see how your data will appear in that format; same for an Overview page or a family group sheet. >> >> Jim - Sent from my iPhone - FaceTime! >> >> On Oct 3, 2011, at 8:36 AM, Craig Kilby <[email protected]> wrote: >> >>> I haven't had that problem BUT on the main person page only one date will show up. You have to click on that even to see the full entry as you typed it. You can always type in an explanation in the "description" box under any event. That is one feature I like.
