 Boy do the Genealogists get suckered in on that one when crusing the
web. I would bet that over 90% of the so called Genealogy sites are Pure
Unqualified JUNK. But they mearly dance arround bragging about theri "So
Called" finds without a thought in their head that it might be ALL
wrong. Even searching the Census Records can lead yuo so far astray it
is unbelievable. The Cencus is a Mindless beuratractic collection of
information with NO thoght whatsoever thast someone in the Future might
need that information. It is VERY poorly designed.
OF course it fulfills a "Political Purpose" and that is all that those
that designed are interested in.
