#Gemini #GenealogyResearch

Google Gemini helped me breakthrough a roadblock today regarding my 6th great grandmother's life in colonial Pennsylvania following her husband's death in 1769. At first it gave me information that just echoed inaccurate research present on the Internet. However as I fed it actual records that I had found, it corrected its narrative. Finally, it suggested searching some tax and land records that I had never found. These records gave me some important new insights

#Genealogy friends: I started a One Place Study (OPS) for a town of one square mile. The 1950 #Census lists mostly unnamed dirt roads (there are several of these).

I am struggling to figure out an address system. Some of these dirt roads are now named but many are lost forever.

My goal is to show each home with a photo and document the people that lived there on #WikiTree

I would love opinions on how to handle this. Any thoughts?

Thought you could trust all those old online trees? I just uncovered a long-believed Avery–Meeker mix-up that proves otherwise. My latest genealogy cleanup turned up a surprise… #GenealogyResearch #FamilyTreeFinds #GenealogyMistakes #ResearchCleanup

Perhaps interesting for people researching family history in Lancashire. Or perhaps not ... 🙃
