I recommend never to mass import other peoples work. I am careful

Manually importing the information, one knows his information.
I'm with you on thtat, James.
When I get stuck I am quite happy to look at FS Family Tree or Ancestry
Public Member Trees, for example, to see if anyone else has found
something I've missed, but I never copy the information. I just use it
as a pointer to where to look, then I do the research myself and
manually enter it into my Legacy tree.
I recently saw a tree which included one of my ancestral lines and had a
further generation back than I have been able to find. Yes, I could
find the Baptism & Marriage records for the 2 people concerned but
nothing to show they were the parents of my ancestors (and they were
from another county) and the tree owner was not able to offer any, so
they have not been added to my tree.
