The information provided on Ancestor Dig is for educational and informational purposes only. While I strive to provide the most accurate and up-to-date genealogical data, please be aware of the following:

1. Nature of Genealogical Research

Genealogy is an interpretive science based on available historical records. Conclusions are drawn from census data, vital records, ship manifests, and other primary and secondary sources that may contain errors, misspellings, or omissions made by the original recorders.

2. Accuracy of Information

While every effort is made to verify the information presented on this site, Ancestor Dig does not warrant or guarantee the absolute accuracy, completeness, or usefulness of any research article or tool. Historical "facts" can change as new DNA evidence, digitized records, or family archives become available.

3. Professional Responsibility

I am a lifelong researcher, but the content on this site should not be considered a substitute for legal or professional genealogical advice. Users are encouraged to perform their own due diligence and verify any information found here through their own independent research.

4. Third-Party Data

This site may reference or link to third-party databases, archives, and DNA services. We are not responsible for the accuracy of data found on these external platforms.

5. Updates and Corrections

I reserve the right to update or correct any article or research finding without prior notice as new information is discovered. If you find a discrepancy or have documented evidence that contradicts a finding on this site, I welcome your feedback via the Contact Us page.
