This is why one record is never enough to tell the whole story. Records were created by human beings with accents, assumptions, imperfect memories, social pressure, and occasionally… very specific opinions about how “Jeffrey” should be spelled. 😊 The paperwork may be official. That doesn’t mean you should rely on it out of context. And somewhere, a descendant is doing the math nobody thought they’d do. 👀 #genealogy #family #generations #familyhistory #ancestors
