View source for Category:Loose Ends

The Loose Ends ought to be individuals who have a parent which [[Help:Special Cox Genealogy Editing Issues#Meriting a Page|merits a page]], but does not have a page. However, at this point remaining loose ends are generally individuals who don't merit a page because source information is lacking, but who were originally added with links before the page merit criteria was created. These individuals would have been documented in old family history, asserting the connection without attached evidence. Initially, such matters were expected to be cleared up quickly, and, in fact, as the evidence does come in, these connections are usually vindicated. However, it would be wrong to pretend that these connections are not usually of a spurious nature.

This is less true on the Castillo/Dunn side of the family, where many Loose Ends exist due to the little attention that this side of the family tends to get in this wiki.
