Pardon the newbie question ... I can click and follow my family tree back to before the birth of Christ lol, but with zero sources ... how is any of this verified or useful? Here's the "ancestor" in question: https://www.familysearch.org/tree/person/sources/GVF6-3MC

Thanks so much for explaining!

    The fact that you question the authenticity of this claim, makes you at least an advanced newbie.

    I think a great place to start is close to you and prove or verify your branch of the tree. Look for every source your can for your most recent deceased ancestor, his wife and children. Then do that again for his parents, her parents, etc.

    I wonder what name generator the contributor used.

    The descendancy chart is ...painfully amusing. "Mrs. Beorn West Saxons". "Mrs. Aldhelm of England". Gotta love it.

    There's a lovely loop a little below that; I suppose you could use it for practice in finding and disconnecting incorrect relationships.
