Conflicting Information

Image
Do you use Ancestry's 'leaf' hints? If so, do you occasionally find a hint or two that have information that doesn't fit with what you already know about the person or family? I usually find such hints among the multitude of hints for the people in my trees. Usually, those 'incorrect' hints are 'way off'. These 'way off' hints are for events in England when the person/family is living in the United States. Today, however, I came across a hint for a death date that was a few months off of the date shown on Find a Grave. The hint was and index record with reference to a film number on Family Search for District of Columbia Deaths and Burials, 1840-1964. Even though the death date was different, the family names matched.

Ancestry / RootsMagic - Tree not Searchable

I work from RootsMagic. I click on the lightbulb and accept the hints. I write the citations within RootsMagic. I then use TreeShare to upload my changes to Ancestry.

Ancestry views my tree as having NO sources. Thus, it doesn't show in a search. [Try searching for Judson Foster Crawford died 1949 and look for the Crawford-Briles tree.] Yes, this and the member connect issue are Ancestry issues. BUT -- they wouldn't be occurring IF I didn't use the lightbulb to accept the hints. Yes, I could avoid this issue by accepting the hints on the Ancestry side -- BUT I lo...

Why Not Indexed

Image
I've been watching my Blogger stats and have noticed that Google is not listed as a referring site. Thus, I began to wonder why. I've been thru the settings and Google's Search Console and I haven't found an answer. So, I'm going to document what I see and then reach out for help. This morning, I tried a Google search for 'briles pauline'. I knew I had several posts on my Wordpress blog about her and that I had re-posted at least one of those posts on my Blogger blog.
