Rob: The "verified" designation would refer specifically to the source you've cited. If that's a published book, the designation means you've seen the book yourself (as opposed to having copied someone else's transcription) and properly recorded the information--not necessarily that it's true. If the book should then happen to cite a baptismal record, for example, and you follow through and find that record (which you should if at all possible), then you can either replace the book citation or add another referring to the baptismal record, which would then also be designated "verified."

I can verify that what I have entered and what the book says is the same. But I can't necessarily verify that the book is correct. Thanks! Rob *** Give the gift of Legacy for the holidays!
