    • Privacy for Living and Deceased Individuals

    While much of this information may be all over the internet, I prefer to take a more cautious approach. Details on the older generations will be available, while those of more recent generations will not.

    Facts, Sources, and Citations

    I strive to make sure the information in my tree all has a source attached to it. Without a source, that information cannot be verified as accurate. It becomes unproven, legend, or family lore and doomed to be repeated across the internet forever. Let's try to break the cycle of bad information in genealogy.
