I have been researching my maternal father's line [Fabyan] in New England. I have come across a number of other Fabyans that are not, to the best of my knowledge, related even thoiugh that family claimed a hotel that my trunk was involved with. I have, as someone else said, kept therm as a separate family ready to be merged. However, I suspect that I will have to go back to France in the early 1600s to find the connection. The project will never be done, will it?

I’ve been working on my database for awhile now and have a question. How do you all decide to add to your databases? Do you add anyone with the surname your are searching or only those people with a confirmed link? Until now I’ve only been adding only those that I can confirm a link. However, lately I’m wondering if I’m overlooking a lot of potential links because they may be several generations previous to the one I’m currently searching. Just wondering how you all feel about this too. Thanks!
