I am fully prepared to discuss any of the evidence for the profiles where I serve as the profile manager, and to defend or amend them based on any clear and convincing new evidence that an interested party brings to me, just as I expect the profiles managed by others to do the same.
The evidence I have, and am prepared to discuss, is from original sources or from published transcripts of original sources. I do not rely on the published trees of others, either online or in print, as evidence for any of my profiles. Family trees, by themselves, may be interesting finding aids but, used alone are not evidence.
My advice is to look at any tree, mine or anyone else's, with great caution. Contact the profile manager, or the tree owner at other sites, and look for, or ask for, real evidence. Don't simply rely on the unsupported speculation all too often found in published trees whether they appear online or in print.
