Since you have the same last name maybe it is up to you to use the several books and enter these profiles with their sources.  You could start with your family and connect them all the way back to the 17th century.  That would be vey nice to see.

I typically use census, death birth certificates etc. I dont often use books  thing is though  they may of used the books but never thought to reference them its hard to say because  often you dont know what all they used.
