The unfortunate part about Ancestry is that sooooooooooo many folks will
dive into that web site with
the full assumption that everything they see, read, copy, and assimilate
into their partially compiled
genealogical material is the absolute "gospel". The real truth; there are
no checks and balances. The researcher
should forever take with a grain of salt anything which is offered on the
internet.
