Is that ancestor really yours? 🤔

To be sure you’ve got the right ancestor, you need multiple pieces of evidence that tell a consistent story.

🔎 Gather and compare records:
Look at birth, marriage, and death certificates, census and military records, and even family Bibles. Go beyond names — check dates, places, occupations, and relationships.

đź“š Cross-reference everything:
See if the details align across documents. Consistent information strengthens your case — contradictions may reveal someone else entirely.

⚠️ And remember:
Online family trees are great clues, but always verify with original sources!

Building your family story is about evidence, not just names. đź’«

🧬 Just starting out?

I know it’s exciting but….Don’t rush!

One of the easiest ways to stay on track is to document everything.

✍️ Every name, date, and place — note where you found it. Even a tiny note like “census record, 1851” can save you frustration later.
