When doing a Search for my relation as noted above. Antoine Adam was b. 1713 in Longueuil, Quebec and he died 11 March 1789 also in Longueuil. The response posted in your website showed his Ethnicity as American. That's absolutely false. He is as French Canadian as one can be. So his Ethnicity should be CANADIAN. Please make the correction and let me know then this is done. Family Search has my email address.

    We have over 8 billion records available to search and over 4 billion names in our FamilySearch Family Tree.

    IF you are discussing the Antoine Adam LTB7-PGP listed in the Family Tree this is a record of a person submitted by our guests and editable by anyone (you) who views it. We hope that any editing is done carefully and backed up by sources to prove the assertion.

    If you are discussing one of our sources it would assist us by including the url of the source so that we can select it from the 8+ billion other records.

    To assist you in your task of editing the records we provide this additional information:

    The purpose of FamilySearch and Family Tree is to allow our guests to discover their family. We do not have the staff available to do research. However, we will assist you in learning how to do the research. We will attach a few links to assist you in learning how to do your own research.

    I cannot Edit to change his Ethnicity from American to Canadian. All this crap your sending me doesn't fix the Historical Record. I even included a link to this file and it got auto deleted by Family Search. What a sad excuse for support.
