Subject: Bruce Gustin's wise analysis

Applause for Bruce Gustin's thoughtful comments in issue #38. Ideally,
every piece of data should be accompanied by a citation to at least 1 primary
source which can be verified independently, now. Unresolved conflicts and
unverified data are "in question."
I suspect most beginnners do not question enough, and sincerely pass off
erroneous genealogy as Truth. But proper research is not the same as
contacting people and filling a database with unsubnstantiated facts.
Sweepers, sweepers, man your brooms. Clean sweep, fore & aft.
