The beauty of Geni's collaborative nature on display again.<br /><br />Of course, you will still have a valid connection to her somewhere else along the way. :) Might be fun to try to find it. <br /><br />For what it's worth, I have found that the Geni Anglo-American tree in general is very strong, particularly in New England. You sometimes get those annoying location errors due to either input errors from old GEDCOMs or well-meaning users who are trying to use it as an "of" field. Thankfully, it only takes a second to fix, as opposed to static trees out there where the bad info just sits forever and keeps infecting other trees. <br /><br />You wouldn't want to use Geni as your *only* tree, but I get better leads there than anywhere else. Even though profiles tell me once in a while that an ancestor was born in Boston in the 16th C. :)Ashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18086603459766397576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26204193.post-88785009063879036322014-06-06T08:50:01.757-07:002014-06-06T08:50:01.757-07:00It does appear this error has been fixed on Geni.c...It does appear this error has been fixed on Geni.com.Erin Spicelandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09495286852011724918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26204193.post-92045796171976975092014-06-06T07:17:06.742-07:002014-06-06T07:17:06.742-07:00Read my Answers to Geni Skeptics. http://schoenbl...Read my Answers to Geni Skeptics. http://schoenblog.com/?p=471Randy Schoenberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12855025173204387728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26204193.post-91828541653314647432014-06-04T10:31:35.490-07:002014-06-04T10:31:35.490-07:00There seems to be a lot of bandwidth devoted to co...There seems to be a lot of bandwidth devoted to connecting us common folk to someone famous. I would be interested in a passing way, much as I am interested in all my Mayflower ancestors. The only time I bring any of them into the conversation is when I tell the story of them killing their 14 year old servant boy. I suppose if I traveled in genealogical circles it would be more important to me to be related to someone famous.
