It does annoy me when people tell you what information they have found, never saying they didn't do any of it themselves until you find something wrong - then they are very quick to say it's not their research!

Another thing is the way people 'check' what they get from other trees (should they go to the trouble of looking at the information!). Just checking something is possible doesn't make it correct, so seeing that there is indeed a death reg for someone in a particular year doesn't mean it's the right registration for the person in question. If thee individual still appears on the following census then it would seem unlikely the reg found is the right one , so this sort of 'checking' is of little use!!
