BOOK - About Genealogical Standards of Evidence, A Guide For Genealogists
by: Brenda Dougall Merriman.

Genealogy, by its very nature, revolves around issues of identification. In describing how we establish or argue points of identification through the use of various sources, we often see or hear- and use- such words as "evidence", or "proof" or "documentation".
