One thing on this topic. I have disproved a version of

So I always include a note about the disproven line,

Greetings again to all,
Cathy, there is no need for you to be sorry. You have helped me and
others many times. Thank you again for your contribution.

Of course, a lot depends on what you produce from your database--whether

I think someone in Legacy has suggested creating Events named
"Disproven Birth", "Disproven Death", etc. for this information. Then
