Sorry for the recent mass of edits I've sent out. (Nov 2021)
I had another surgery and it forced me to "rest" so I kept myself otherwise occupied.

I go through to link families when I have the time. Usually, I'll pick a random line from my tree to work on while I double-check/add to my records.
Or sometimes I'll dig through censuses to link families when I take pictures in the local cemeteries (not related to me, but possibly my brother-in-law's family.)

Sorry to those that I bombard with multiple edits. I never expect them to be done right away.

When I submit an edit, it is pulled from a compilation of records, censuses, social security, marriage/divorce (when available), newspaper articles, family records, etc, and/or BTDT experience in a few cases. ... Obviously not in the older or more distant relatives (I go out pretty far in the tree, sometimes until I hit the end of the line/hints).

***If you want to know where I got the info from before accepting an edit, I can email photos and screenshots as evidence. Leave me the name/number of the person in question in the comments and I will get you my email by emailing you through the send an edit email.*** I am always happy to send you where I got my info from if you have a question about it.

I do genealogy, not mythology. I like sources and use them.
I will never submit a misspelling/transcription error on a census record as a nickname.
One of my grandfathers had his name butchered several times in censuses. If anyone listed that as a nickname I'd not be happy.

I can do pictures locally, but I do have issues with illness and mobility so I am limiting my picture taking to just a couple in Marion County, KY for right now, as they are the closest to me. And one on the way to my doctor's office in Washington County.
I will not list myself as a volunteer picture taker because I don't want to be listed as an active person out looking and then have issues getting out. But I do try to look for as many on the request list as I can.

And I will try to get as many of the memorials without photos as I can in the cemeteries I am near or will be near several times.
