Thank you for the information.Does the GSMD accept published genealogies as source documentation, or do they require birth/marriage/death records only? I can produce copies of vital records for myself and the first few generations, but obviously as the line gets near the Revolutionary period, vital records are not available and may rely on published genealogies and/or published histories of counties and the like.Would these types of documents be considered as adequate source materials?
Likewise, if I contact my State Historian (contact information given on the contact page for my state) would that person be able to determine if anyone else has proven themselves since 1983, anywhere in the country through my line, or would their information be limited to my state?
Thank you for the link you gave us and the information.
