I have a situation where we know by DNA results we match a particular family line, but even having hired a researcher we've not been able to prove our gggg grandfather, and may never, a great possibility exist that it is a certain person, so I use Possibly with the person's name. I list the Census and other records we have for this person as events, and explanations regarding same. Many people have copied my information from my website over the years, by putting this information on the family website, maybe someone with have other information on this particular person and contact me. In other situations I use events such as: "Family Researcher" and I document the information this researcher has and if it's online I include the URL. "Family" depending on what it is, I may add private to it so it's just for my records or further research. Syble
