I have never seen a published genealogy book, RW World Connect online complied genealogy, or any other type of complied genealogy that DID NOT contain an error or mistake. Genealogies with sources cited contain errors as do genealogies without sources cited. My research is only as good as the last discovered document. There are more documents that may prove or disprove what appeared to be accurate. Many of us try to be as accurate as possible. Some do not. Have struggled with this concept and how to approach the problem of the research mistakes circulating in books, publications, and online research. The problem is that mistakes are everywhere and I can not possibly know who entered a particular error into their database... then shared their findings (including a particular error) with another person or uploaded their data (including a particular error) to an online site. A person may visit an online site today and never visit again to see that a particular error was corrected. It is a huge problem and I wish I knew the answer to how to correct errors and mistakes in genealogy.... in any media. Rae Jean ... in Tennessee
