I thought you had to make someone an editor before that could happen. Or is your tree on Family Search? Anyway, many of those trees on sncestry just copy bad information from each other, more sure doesn't mean true.Kristinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06413795611563683135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8999463332198347326.post-73882395388033161012017-08-07T02:00:19.584-04:002017-08-07T02:00:19.584-04:00Wait a minute?

I only signed up within the past year and had never heard about this. It's got me worried because I've allowed the tree to be public so I could find other relatives. But the idea of someone making changes is just so very wrong.

In my research I've rarely needed to find anyone before 1800, so I'm very impressed with family history that goes to the 1500s. Occasionally I'll find a useful family tree on Ancestry.com but I've learned to double-triple check sources as they can often be mistaken about references.Mike Brubakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13065245846262417519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8999463332198347326.post-412079626253559812017-08-05T09:15:01.529-04:002017-08-05T09:15:01.529-04:00Hmmmmm....love all these Sepian puns!

I use Ancestry for records but not for the trees, because people just copy from each other and it's even worse if they can change what you put up on your tree. So lucky you can trace that far back, it's pretty much impossible unless your ancestors were nobility as yours clearly were.
