Not sure how I want to phrase this:
Searching on Ancestry for a person.

Do people actually check ANYTHING?
How can you look at your tree and then think what you have got on it is right?
I know my tree isn't perfect with Abt., Bef. or Aft. on it.
But seriously in the 1500s Sussex, Huntington, Suffolk ... that is one hell of a well travelled family !
