I assume your full question ended "….verify this?"
The simple answer is that you will have to attempt to confirm the details by undertaking your own, independent research. Checking different websites for other pedigrees that appear to relate to your family might be a help, but it is often the case that someone finds these details on one site and (without verification) copies them elsewhere!
After nearly forty years, I am still working to establish / confirm the facts regarding some branches of my family tree. So, in short, there is no easy way of confirming the accuracy of the family history details that you have received from another researcher. Just use this information as a basis for what could well be a well researched and completely accurate assessment, but do double-check as much as you can with any available resources.
