My aunt passed away just this last week. The genealogist in me feels like I should immediately add her death information, but I also want to protect her identity from potential identity theft, which I would assume is possible on any public genealogy site. I had the same dilemma when my brother passed away two years ago. I've just been entering the year and state in which they died, rather than going for the full details. I've done the same with my Ancestry tree.
How do y'all feel about that? Is it too early for me to include her death info? (I've already edited her page to show year and state, but that's all.) Am I being too protective of the information? What do you do with recently-deceased relatives, in terms of adding their information to genealogy sites?
