This episode answers really the root of all family history research - how to know if a record is for our ancestor or not.

There are 6 Questions that you need to ask yourself before attaching a record to a relative in your family tree:

1. Who? - who is the record about?

2. What? - what is the record and what information is it providing?

3. When? - when did it take place?

4. Where? - where did it take place?

5. Why? - why might there be a conflict?

6. How? - how likely is it correct?

As we ask ourselves these questions, we can better decide if a record is correct or not.
