These are all good suggestions, but for me they mean a lot of dates, many of
them incorrect, and wouldn't sourcing my cousin for an incorrect date point
out how poorly she did her research?
What works for me is dates I've researched, sourced by wherever I got that
date. For my family reading their family story, why would they want to read
dates and alternate dates, not knowing because they aren't genealogists as
we are that the alternative date is, IMHO, incorrect, thanks to my cousin.
I guess there is no correct or incorrect way.

Once you find the correct date, you can move the original date received
from your cousin to the Alt. Birth/Alt. Death event and retain your
cousin as the source for that event. This maintains the history of your
research.
Also, if you already have a Legacy database where this "family" would be
entered, my suggestion would be to enter it into a separate database and
as you evaluate each person, move them into your database.
