i have noticed that many people do not read the family data collections they just save them to there tree, many people who have the same family members that i have, save records that say people are born in massachusetts in the 1580's that is not true, englishmen did not come to massachusetts until 1620. and another point when you fill in the data on people in your tree, you can not be born in the united states before 1776. You would be born in New England or other colonies not the United States
