Crista may times you reference not climbing someone else's tree. Which leads me to a question or a few, do you only add members to your database once you have the proof that you are seeking? Do you add those who you are researching to the database but just don't link them to your tree or do you keep the info in a notebook (electronic or paper) until you are ready to actually add them to your tree? I am just a bit confused how you keep everything organized in the process of getting to that proved person. When you mention location resolution - do you ever use lat/long coordination points to set the location since that will not necessarily change but the boundary of a state/country/etc may?

Search is turned off for Ancestry's KZitem video channel so we can't search for "Genealogical Proof Standard" to find the rest of the series. So it would be helpful if you can add links to the other videos for this series in the description. Thanks for your videos!

My maternal grandmother, whom I never knew, was shown on her gravestone as dying in 1994, yet my mother, who died in 1989, remembered getting the call about her death. The death certificate would tell me, but unfortunately, it’s not available in a search of records. I can’t find an obituary for her, either, and everyone who would have known is deceased. I really wish I had started our family genealogy sooner!

What was your grandmother's name when she died? Where did she die?

On your Mary E and Elizabeth example, I have another possible example for you. I have come across the same type of thing but have found that the woman had been married a couple of times and there was conflicting reports of what her actual "maiden" name was.

Boundary changes: it's something I'm really struggling with. My parents were born in East Prussia, which is now being listed on ancestry as Lithuania. They were not born in Lithuania (it was German at the time). From 1912-1915 or so, it was Lithuanian, and thereafter it was German again til after the war. The records on ancestry under "east Prussia (Poland)" but the transcription is stated the places in Lithuania. All wrong! I hope the team at "Ancestry.de" will brush up on their German history!!!! I found some documents all the same, but still surprised that it happened.

It's great that you understand border changes that happen throughout history. There are records created all throughout our ancestors lives that reflect various locations based on the current geographical and political nature of the times. When an official government document is created and Ancestry indexes that document, we index what is on the document. We do not change it to reflect anything other than what was reported at the time. However, how a location is listed in your own family tree is entirely up to you.

I had someone ask for my ID once. She then wrote on the form she was filling out "Darlene Campbell" for my name. I have no clue why she took my ID if she wasn't going to use it. My name was correctly spelled on the card in front of her. I was not a happy camper!
