[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Okay, this thread went far afield, but can anyone recommend a legitimate geneologacy service? Is Ancestry.com any good? We are looking to identify some lineage for descendant rights, so hoping to be a good starting point to see if we should do a formal documented search.[/quote] Ancestry can be great for accessing Census, immigration, and other records. A lot of the information that comes up on their searches, though, will be from family trees other users have entered. That information is only as good as the research those users did, so proceed with caution. There are an awful lot of people out there whose idea of research is to find two people with the same last name living in the same area and assume they must be related, with no documentation. Late 19th and early 20th century family genealogies are also frequently riddled with errors. [/quote]
