I have researched my Gorst ancestors in Cheshire back to the time of Oliver Cromwell (and have the potential to get to Elizabethan times) by carefully reading ancient handwriting and translating from mis-spelled Latin from the Parish Records for St. Helen's Chapelry, Witton-cum-Twanbrooks, Northwich, Cheshire, England. Am I allowed to add my research to my tree?  I have another Gorst descendant in Australia who is waiting with baited breath to see what I've got.  Help please. Auriel

As you are already pre-1700 certified, you can add them - as long as you have sources - but you will have to stop at 1500.  Then you will need to gain another certification, for pre-1500 profiles.
