== How to Use the Record == | == How to Use the Record == | ||
Some record sets have indexes; these indexes were created at the end of the year. Copy errors could have been made in the index, so you want to find the actual record to verify the information is correct. Using the index is a helpful way to find the actual record. | |||
For death records, the information in records is usually reliable, but depends upon the knowledge of the informant. | |||
Regarding marriage and death records, name changes, shortened names, or nicknames may have been used by your ancestors, so pay attention to other relationships (parents, spouse, siblings, children, etc.) that can confirm whether you have the right person/record. | |||
