Have you located a document that you think is for your ancestor, but aren’t certain if it really is you ancestor or not? Look at every date or event that is stated directly or indirectly in the document. Do not look at what you already think you know about your ancestor. Use only the document you just located. Create a chronology of those events. See if those dates are consistent with what you already know about your ancestor and the chronology you already have for him.
