Who put Mary Locklear in as "Mariah Mary Locklear" and has her parents as Solomon Locklear and Phyllis Dunston??? That picture is one that came from my tree on Ancestry as my gggreat grandmother Mary Locklear, so I am curious how it is posted here with that lineage. Now I may have posted her previously in my tree, but I see this pic was recently posted. And I surely know that I did not put her parent in. So.....who has this information to verify the lineage attached to the picture, and where was the pictured taken from?????

Thank you.

Jennifer

How did you access someone else's tree and why are you so mad?

Mr. Burns,

I did not access anyone else's tree. We can see anyones tree that is posted. The question is why did someone take the picture I had posted to my tree on here, change the name and parents. I put hours and hours into verifying my information. Some of my lines I have spent years on gathering information and finding pictures of my ancestors, so if I seem "mad" I apologize. It is just disturbing to see people hap-hazardly posting genealogy on a website that is not only incorrect, but stolen from other peoples trees or pages.

When I joined this page, I was under the impression that our information was safe. I wanted to share valuable information for those family members seeking their ancestors. Not people that were interested in creating their own stories.

I've been doing this for quite a few years and have discovered that items like pictures are out there on the web mislabeled. I also have come across a picture of a relative in someone else tree with wrong info. If I can, I try to contact the person and let them know their info is wrong and who's picture they have. If I can't contact them, what else can I do? I let it skate.
