Names aren't much use without dates and locations. It would help if people could put something like "19th c." if they don't have a better idea of a date.

I think GR gets a bit fanciful at times over statistics. Len

I think this site has become its very own IGI in its own right, as there are 22 million people on this site. And the IGI contains hundreds of millions of records, so apart from censuses, BMD indexes, and the IGI you can now consult GR as another resource in ancestry searching.
