Genealogy Club: Are You Really My Ancestor?
When you find a name match for an ancestor, it's tempting to believe you're related. A name isn't enough to prove the relationship, especially if you have a common surname - like mine, Smith! Learn what it takes to prove a lineage, and how to handle conflicting information or multiple potential matches. I'll explore cases that illustrate how to deal with these issues.
