156 The closer your data entry methods match these requirements the more quickly your application can be processed. Deviation requires manual intervention before the application can be processed and may incur delays waiting for a DNA Committee member to finish other projects first.

1. Enter dates as DAY MONTH YEAR - such as 15 May 1836. Months can be abbreviated to the standard three character abbreviations such as Jan, Dec, and so on.

2. Enter places as XYZ County, STATE - such as Travis County, Texas, or Isle of Wight County, Virginia. Be sure to include the word "County." Do not include town or city names.

For non-USA places enter the closest equivalent of county, state.

3. In born, marr., and died rows ensure the date is entered in the left column and the place in the right column of the form.

4. Enter names exactly as they should appear in the database. Use quote marks (") around nicknames.

5. Use maiden names for women. If the maiden name is not known enter Unknown.

6. If surnames do not give a clear indication as to whether the father or mother in the next earliest generation is the line through which descent is passed then add a not to indicate the lineage track. For example, say generation three includes a father named John Doe and a mother named Jane Smith If generation four contains a father named Will Smith it will be obvious that the lineage tracks from Jane Smith to Will Smith. However, if John Doe married Jane Doe then it will not be obvious whether the father named Will Smith in generation is the father of John or Jane. Enter a note to help the DNA Committee whenever there may be a doubt. 
Questions - FAQ, Lineage Application Form (I452)
 
157 There are several reasons for this even though it makes more work for you. ​This is needed both for permissions and for automated processing.

The form gives us permission to enter your lineage information into the online database and to compare your DNA test results to others in the project.

The form data is extracted and processed electronically reducing the chance an error inserted by someone retyping the data. If you have multiple lineages of early Texas pioneers please submit one form for each line, but you can submit the forms as completed. If some of your ancestors are already in the database you can enter their name and person ID number to ensure ancestors are not duplicated. This is especially useful if one sibling or cousin has already had an application processed and the ancestors are in the database. To locate an ancestor's person ID look for the "Person ID" field near the bottom of the first section of a person's page, before the sections listing parents and spouses with children, if any.

It is not necessary to submit all Texas lines at one time. You can save a copy of the file on your computer, fill it in as time allows, then submit it to dna@txsgs.org once it is completed.

An accurate database, with photos, documents, family stories, and DNA results linked to the ancestors will become a "must see" resource for all Texas researchers.

165 We want the database we are building to contain the most accurate family trees possible. In order to accurately evaluate the DNA data we need the DNA data and the lineage of each test taker. Without both of these pieces we can not reach any credible conclusions.

For every generation from the DNA test taker back to the qualifying ancestor we need the best sources available to support the link between parent and child, birth date and place of each person, death date and place of each person, marriage date and place of each couple. These links and event facts are generally supported by census, probate, land, court, and vital records, and family sources such as Bible records or correspondence.

To ensure that the lineage is the result of credible genealogical research, the following ORIGINAL SOURCES are deemed acceptable: Vital records (birth, marriage, and death); probate records; all census records (local, state, and federal); and Bible and baptismal records. The following sources may be cited as circumstantial evidence but must be supported by an explanation: land; tax; military service; church, cemetery, and tombstone records; obituaries; and court records.

The inclusion of the following supplemental resources is encouraged but ARE NOT ACCEPTED as proof of linage: newspaper clippings; published family histories; published county histories; published biographical records; and city and county directories. Private papers and personal records such as letters, diaries, journals, and reminiscences may be evaluated on an individual basis.

Citations for all sources should include enough information for the DNA Committee to locate the source. Whenever possible, include county record book volume and page; census year, location, page, and household information; cemetery name and location for headstones; military service and pension file numbers including which war; newspaper name, date, page numbers for articles or obituaries; Find a Grave memorial numbers; Texas GLO file number, land district, and grant type; birth and death certificate numbers and location; and so on.

If an online database is used as a source it is helpful to include the name of the database and the website (Ancestry.com, FamilySearch.org, etc.) as well as the name on the document if it is not exactly the same as the ancestor name you provide on the application form.

Many records are now available for free on FamilySearch.org. Access requires a free account, but no subscription fees are charged.

FamilySearch records using a URL that contains the word "ark" or "PAL" are preferred as these are persistent links that should work for anyone, not just for a user during the current browser session.
