Does anybody know how accurate the one world tree is on ancestry? A couple of weeks ago I gave my gt gt grandads name - Jasper John Jasper born 1857 in Lambeth, Surrey.The results took me very far back, now tonight I have looked again and gone through a royal family, one is Henry 1 Beauclerc 1068 and at the top of the tree is a man called Frodi Dansson born 433.Does anyone know if this could be a wind up or if its there is must be right.

I would take it with a pinch of salt. The only research you can be 100% sure of is your own. No harm in emailing them though, perhaps they will share their parish records etc with you. p.s I have a contact who believes that we are related to Ann Boleyn, could say I nearly laughed my head off but I wont :-)

I would be very suspicious , how can they have records that far back..... I think you can enter more or less anthying on it ,so unless you have the proof or can get it , take witha pinch salt. Kim
