I always put that I found most of my information (source) from Ancestry or My Heritage...is there something else that I should use?

Answer 1

I also use Family Search (https://www.familysearch.org/en/). As with any of these sites, double (or triple check) the information that you find. I've found a lot of misinformation out there.

Thanks Mack...Yes, i am afraid of my maternal information because of the misinformation...but my lineage is slavery..so finding information about my family and the slave owners/ white linage is confusing so and sometimes  they don't what to acknowledge me...as a relative. So maybe I won't add them..it's too much but I have some serious notables on my maternal side...Oh well!!
