I have been a family historian for 45+ years. Professional Genealogist 22 years (Retired 2016). Our voices are being silenced even here as the left tries to rewrite history. DISCLAIMER: Genealogical websites on the internet are not professional, reliable, proven, documented, data sources. Nothing can replace old fashioned research and documentation which my attic is full and hasn't been touched in years, however, even though I stand behind all data on my memorials, I do not claim to use any documentation nor does this wording support a claim. If I did it would be a full-time job answering queries as everyone has their own opinion. I do support family traditional statements with circumstantial evidence to a degree. I'm probably one of the few who does. I no longer research so If you have conflicting data and want an edit, please send proof documents with sources and I will correct accordingly if sound. Be wary of Genealogical DNA sites. It's fun to play with but currently worthless and you give the government and 3rd parties (read the fine print) access to your DNA. The Human Genome Project states Genealogical DNA websites are scams as they cannot scientifically prove their findings past 1 generation (Legally). Current Professonal Genetics have PROVEN: to 1st Generation @ 99% accuracy (LEGAL), to 2nd Generation @ 74% Accuracy, to 3rd Generation @ 49% Accuracy, to 4th Generation @ 24% Accuracy, to 5th Generation @ .9% Accuracy. So, when a Genealogical DNA website that you sent in your sample and paid their fee and they send back that you are in John Doe 1615-1703 groupXXXX, ask them do they guarantee their findings? They won't answer of course, however if they do guarantee it, ask for a signed copy of that statement and please contact me with it. My collogues have several lawsuits pending on some of these websites and can use that information. I will be glad to transfer any memorial I have that is not connected to me. Below is the procedures for edit submittal. Only proven documented edits will be made. However grandmas stories are welcome and will be filed in the family file.

Edit procedure:

1. Describe claim thoroughly
2. Provide documented evidence of claim
3. If no documentation, provide substantial family traditional evidence for filing in
database for research.
