About The Taylor/Oberturf Family Tree
Welcome. I am Tracie Oberturf Taylor. This family tree is still a work in progress like most trees. They are never ending. I try to add only information that I can prove to be correct. If you see an error on my tree please let me know. Names followed by **, means I have questions on that individual and/or their family. If you click on the name I should have notes concerning what kind of questions I have for that person. If you see @ at the end of a name that is just a reminder for me.
I do get a lot of information from ancestry.com but I use caution with that. Not all the information from there is correct. Also through my research I have learned, when using the U.S. Social Security Death Index, the location that list where the individual died is not correct all the time. What they are actually giving you is the last know location of where the individual lived. Example: My dad lived in Grand Bay, Mobile County, Alabama and died in Mobile, Mobile County, Alabama but per the U.S. Social Security Death Index his death is listed as in Grand Bay, Mobile County, Alabama. The U.S. Census records that I attach to a person I copy word for word. I do not correct any misspellings.
I also use findagrave.com but once again I use caution with that one too. There are errors. One of the biggest problems I have found is with the cemeteries. Example: Providence Cemetery in Texas. I have found obits that say a husband and wife are buried at Providence Cemetery in Jacksonville, Texas which is in Cherokee County. When I go to find a grave one spouse is listed in Providence Cemetery in Smith County, Texas and the other is listed in Providence Cemetery in Dialville, Texas which is in Cherokee County.
I am willing to share my information with you, however before posting the information concerning my immediate family please let me know what site you plane to post to. There are a few sites that I really do not care for my information to be shared on.
