I watched it happen in the FH Library and felt pushed out when I continually mentioned the importance of these two. Just letting folks, on an open edit program, jump in with no training seems nuts. Some folks say <br />Just trust the Lord. I can't imagine there would be time enough for one-on-one inspiration that would reveal what is needed to clean up some family lines. After reading "Hearts Turned to the Fathers: A History of the Genealogical Society of Utah", it is clear there have been controversies and contentions among and between genealogists and leaders since the beginning, with one approach tried here, then another one tried there. It is a testimony that this work has even succeeded as well as it has. Let's hope some sanity returns, and I am encouraged by the learning center presentation you cited on Research basics for consultants. Maybe the wind is shifting a little in the right direction again.Cathy Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10461484882494138496noreply@blogger.com
