Thanks Sandra, that's interesting with the DNA.
Yes wise not to accept 'as is' in any trees.
I know I have done it before, put out some names etc into an online tree to see if I get any match come back, but I have read quite a few trees that I think people have been made up records, and other people have copied the same incorrect info into their trees, so that's annoying.
Hence my effort to try and correct this long held incorrect info that is recognised as correct only by the number of trees using it.
I'm a bit stuck and because the time period is some 40 years prior to Census records etc I can't confirm info so I'm now trying to knock out some of the possible names as belonging to other trees. even that's hard, an example is I have a name of a christening and the same name of a death 12 months later, but can't confirm if it was a baby buried or a different adult or elderly person. I suppose when they did these records they didn't expect us trying to do Family Trees 200 years later
