Just thought I'd add my tuppence-worth - in the hope I can help save others a lot of time and avoid annoying frustrations.
You will, I am sure, save yourself a lot of time if you manage to resist the temptation of plagearising other people's research - typically from sites like GR. I wish I had!
Now don't get me wrong. GR (and similar sites) can be really good sources of possible leads. But that's how you should treat them - possible leads.
When I first started my 'research' (June '08), I was so eager to get an ancestor back to the 1700's that I grabbed details from here, there and everywhere. What a fool I was!
Notwithstanding that I have no desire to offend, but if someone has 2, 3, 4 or perhaps +7,000 people in their tree, I doubt that they've been able to properly research all of the individuals (unless they're very rich and have a team of researchers).
Please, don't do what I did - don't run before you can walk. Start with what you know, get the BMD's and work back from there. Yes, boring, slow and expensive I know - but you've got to be able to 'prove' your case; citing someone elses', undocumented, claim is not enough.
And when you get stuck, ask the good people here at RootsChat for the next clue.
Happy hunting,
Tim
