I need help! I've been messing with Ancestry for several years but only recently got serious about my family tree. As I really started digging in, I realized there is a LOT on Ancestry that is incorrect. Some of the info is so off base I swear they just made it up out of thin air.
SO....the other realization I've made is that, I know how to Google, and I know how to look at OTHER people's research on Ancestry.....but I don't actually know how to do my own. Where do I start? For example, where are people getting copies of death certificates?
As far as what I have entered so far on my own, I just know things (names and birthdays, etc.) so I've been entering at least that much. But once I get past those people, I have to actually know how to research and I don't have a clue. Any pointers for someone just starting out?
