I will audit your family tree gedcom for errors, duplicates and false ancestors
Family tree auditor who finds the false ancestors in your GEDCOM
About this Gig
Most online trees are copied from other trees. That is how a Massachusetts family born in 1731 ends up as the "parents" of a Georgia farmer who died in 1830, and one wrong link drags in dozens of false ancestors. Nothing on the site warns you.
I audit the tree you already have. Send a GEDCOM export (Ancestry, FamilySearch, MyHeritage, RootsMagic), name the home person, and in two days you get a written report you can apply yourself:
VERIFIED CORE: who is actually proven by a record in your tree, and how strong each link is.
PROVEN WRONG, WITH THE FIX: impossible dates, death dates copied from the wrong person, places that did not exist yet, duplicates, grafted famous branches.
DOUBTFUL: what to flag rather than delete.
THE NUMBERS: how many ancestors, how many carry a real record, which links hold up the most unproven people.
How it is made: tools I wrote run every person through the checks, I read every flag against your own sources, and I use AI assistance to draft the write-up. Nothing is invented: every finding points at a source already in your tree.
Your file stays on my own systems, living people stay out of the report, and the file is deleted 14 days after delivery.
FAQ
Do you use AI?
Yes, and I say so up front. Tools I wrote run the checks, I read every flag against your sources, and AI helps draft the write-up. Every line cites a source already in your tree. By ordering you agree that tree details, with living people removed, may pass through an AI tool. Want none? Say so.
Do you look up new records?
Not in the fixed-price packages. The audit uses the sources already attached in your tree, read properly. Where a finding needs an outside record to settle it, I say so and quote that work separately by the hour.
What about living relatives?
They stay out of the report by default, the file never leaves my own systems, and it is deleted 14 days after delivery.
Will you edit my tree for me?
No. Ancestry does not let third parties edit a tree, and you should see every change anyway. The report is an edit list, written so you can apply it in an evening.
