    It sounds like that, if you are not 'comfortable' with the "Indexed" Records of, Birth; Deaths; and Marriages, of England (and, Wales); then, you need to do much MORE research about your Ancestral lines.

    .

    You should only attach the "Sources" (ie. "Indexed" Record); IF, you believe they relate to you Ancestors.

    .

    You must have some idea where you Ancestors come from/reside! But, if it is a "Surname" like "Smith" or "Brown (or, the like); then, you will find it difficult and time consuming.

    .

    Take a look at the various "Pedigrees" (ie. "Trees") that are 'On-Line', that match your Ancestral lines - that should help.

    .

    Remember the ONLY place to start is with yourself; and, work out from there, that should help you get 'comfortable' with your Ancestral lines; and, thence, 'comfortable' with the "Indexed" Records of, Birth; Deaths; and Marriages, of England (and, Wales).
