Even if you use an online tree for a “clue” and never intend on publishing that fact unless you can find separate documentation, you should still cite that clue–at least so that you personally know from where the clue was obtained. It’s hard to know how much time should be devoted to following up on a clue if one does not know from where the clue was obtained. Clues from thin air are difficult to use.
