Step one in a good genealogical search includes thoroughly analyzing any information you have collected concerning your current search. It's important to check for accuracy and include any missing citation information.
High Standards of Research
"Proof is a fundamental concept in genealogy. In order to merit confidence, each conclusion about an ancestor must have sufficient credibility to be accepted as "proved." Acceptable conclusions, therefore, meet the Genealogical Proof Standard (GPS)." *As stated by the board for certification of genealogists. (http://www.bcgcertification.org)
GPS consists of five elements:
reasonably exhaustive research;
complete, accurate citations to the source or sources of each information item;
tests—through processes of analysis and correlation—of all sources, information items, and evidence;
resolution of conflicts among evidence items; and
a soundly reasoned, coherently written conclusion.
