on this whole problem is “the not recognizing Stephanie’s work”

permission. Without Stephanie Flora’s name the validity comes into

it is so important to validate your work! We need to know where you got
your info, SS, newspaper, (They are only half correct) birth records, death
records, oral info and from whom, Web site, who submitted it where did they get
it. . . I could go on and on for the people just getting into genealogy because
I am only repeating what’s been said at virtually every seminar ,
every getting started pamphlet/book and lecture </span></font></p>
