RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

Legg inn av Bill Arnold » 27 nov 2007 16:42:03

Hi, Gen-Medievalers :0

I found the following post to gen-medieval in the
archives:

http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/read/GE ... 1196126774

BA: It caught my eye, because I used to live in Scituate, Massachusetts, and also
on Martha's Vineyard, re: Edgartown, West Tisbury, Chilmark, et al., knowing the
family and town names, and my ancestral family also lived on Nantucket. Can
anyone* explain to gen-medievalers how these family lists are derived? in some
cases I see place names, but no sources. Specifically, are these ancestors found
online? I have worked with Massachusetts sources, so I am curious to learn the
research methodology employed to arrived at this pedigree? Indeed, I find some
of my own ancestral surnames in there. Might lead to a Robert Peck, the Elder,
of Wakefield :0 But if I printed such a pedigree on gen-medieval, I am quite
sure everyone would be screaming: what are the sources?

Quality is in the toilet on this segment (all those darn Scituate
families were boring the stuffing out of me). But if anyone spots
egregious errors, I'd be happy to know of them.
