Ancestry.com Thrulines™ & SSDI Questions Answered - Plus More!
In this video I answer some of the questions from a recent Genealogy TV episode called “Ancestry.com: ThruLines Explained” and the Social Security Death Index episode as well as some other general questions about family history research. CLICK SHOW MORE! 0:00 Introduction 1:53 Question: If a person shows up on Thrulines are you automatically related by DNA? 2:29 Question: If you put a person you think is your parent in your tree, will Thrulines automatically put them as a parent or only if they are your DNA parent? 3:36 Comment: There is so much nonsense on Ancestry, and other internet sources, that I believe none of it unless I can locate ample primary evidence. 4:27 Comment: Don’t just copy other people’s trees - or at least verify [the genealogical evidence]. 5:49 Question: Is it okay to write on the back of photographs? 6:12 Question: How do you extract data from Ancestry? [How do you download your tree from Ancestry.com] 7:12 Comments: Don’t assume that the location of someone’s death in the Social Security Death Index (SSDI) is correct. There are a variety of reasons it may be incorrect explained in the part of the video. 9:27 Question: Where do you put the different spelling of an ancestor's name on Ancestry.com? 10:53 How do you file records for multiple people in the same family with the same name?
