proof
Wouldn't you like to find that everything other people submit to those sites like ancestry.com is posted complete with sources?
All I did was follow a "hint" at ancestry, and bingo! Generation after generation of ancestors apparent popped up. With each new 5-generation chart, more climbed out of the dusty past. When the deluge slowed, the names were Roman and the dates were in the area of B.C.

Now what self-respecting genealogist would take any of that at face value?
Infinitely disappointed, I simply started over, and decided that all those "hints" would be taken with a grain of salt until proven.
Now I know that we will never prove everything we uncover and believe to be true, but I would like to try to prove as much as possible. There's just something about having all these beautifully lengthy ancestral lines and knowing that they cannot possibly be proven. I accept that fact. Besides life is too short to spend all of it trying to prove things that are impossible.
My new goal is to prove what I can and what I can't prove, then i'll simply enjoy the possibility of it being true.
Happy Hunting!
