Can you sue the publisher of your family history if the family tree is wrong?

Who provided the material that was published? A publisher is just that. They format and do grammar and spelling edits, etc. but the content would have to come from you or a company you hired to trace your family history. That information will be documented to the extent possible and it is up to you to publish or not. Getting the family tree wrong means what? That they made errors when they transcribed, or that they included information that was not part of the manuscript? I think you are looking in the wrong place for someone to blame. You should also have had the opportunity to proof anything before printing and to correct wrong information. But if they published what you gave them, they are not responsible for the content. AND, I assume this was a "vanity press", meaning you had to pay them to print X number of copies. They just did the printing, you are the one responsible for what was printed.

How To Trace Your Ancestry?

Learning how to trace your ancestry is not difficult, but actually tracing your ancestry is time-consuming. Each time you find a bit of information about one of your ancestors, such as the fact that your great-great-great uncle died in the greatest battle of the Civil War, you discover all the time and effort you put into your research is worth it. Here are some tips on getting started:Stay organizedGood organization is essential when tracing your ancestry. Make a copy of each original record you possess, such as birth certificates, death certificates and marriage certificates. It is also a good idea to make a digital copy by scanning the document and saving it to disk. Once you make the copies, protect the original document by placing it in an acid-free sleeve and storing it properly. When you need to reference something on the document, use the copy instead of the original. It is good to use a filing system to keep photos and documents together, and you can use a similar filing system on your computer or on CD.Use reliable sourcesNow that many people have family tree information online, there is a wealth of information available. A common mistake is mining information about ancestors from other people's family trees. While these sources are extremely valuable in the right circumstances, they can send you down the wrong path if you use them incorrectly. If you are researching John Dillard, for instance, and find a family tree showing John Dillard's line back to the time of the Mayflower, it is tempting to copy the data into your own tree. Instead, first check the source material. If the person who posted the info does not include any source documents or notations, send an email asking for that information. If you are unable to obtain source material documenting that the information in the tree is correct, save the information in a word processing document instead of adding it to your tree. Continue your search; you may find reliable sources to back up the data you have saved and then you can add the information to your family tree.Reliable sources include original birth, death, marriage, military and immigration documents as well as census records. Tracing your ancestry is a worthwhile, rewarding experience. Learning about where you came from can help you in your journey forward, and this is a gift you leave your children and grandchildren when you are gone.
