I always add notes under a birth date for instance if I have got back to a Dorothy Nicholls born about 1690 but I cannot be sure of her baptism yet have found a candidate I add underneath "A Dorothy Nicholls was born in such and such a village in 1690" And when I have verified connections I add notes, such as names mentioned in wills, poor law records as well for pre 1837 research.
What does annoy me is when someone on an Anc tree is said to be born in 1700 in rural Suffolk but baptised in Bermondsey in 1701. Sorry but show me compelling evidence first before I believe this. And even more annoying is when someone born in 1700 is the son of someone born in 1400. Many Anc trees are more mythical than fictional books it seems.
