SUMMARY:He Wasn’t a Captain! Strategies to Correct Myths and Mistakes Using Modern Methods
DESCRIPTION:National Genealogy Society Conference \nSession Number: S348 \nGenealogists frequently encounter myths and mistakes during research\, often without even realizing it. In the digital age\, it is especially easy for incorrect information to proliferate. From conflated records for same-named people to records created intentionally to mislead\, responsible genealogists must do their best to identify incorrect information and set the record straight. In this session\, Megan discusses how to recognize and correct a myth or mistake using the Genealogical Proof Standard (GPS).1 She shares creative strategies for sharing your written findings both with others who may fall into the trap of the same incorrect information and to a wider and/or future audience. \nThis is in-person. Registration for the conference is required. \n1. Board for Certification of Genealogists\, Genealogy Standards\, 2nd ed. (Nashville\, Tenn.: Ancestry Imprint\, Turner Publishing Co.\, 2019)\, 1-3.
