Thanks Charani Ron
I think I will just use the research notes when I need to clarify proof.
Ron, I will adopt your probability approach when I have negative proofs as I
agree entirely with you on that.
Why I am doing this...
I am trying to look at my Family Tree as if a descendant 2+
Alan,
Your last sentence is one one that everyone should really note, and
illustrates one of the dangers of taking trees from user sites on the web.

Hi kb,
Thanks for the tip on Bayesian probability. I must confess that the math is way
beyond me these days (maybe alwaysJ) but the underlying broad principle is
definitely something I can run with for some of my research.
I agree that Legacy seems quite weak in the research log, notes

I find this thread very interesting and informative, thanks to Kb and Ian for
their comments I am in a similar situation of my 6x Great Grandfather being the
