In genealogy, is there a standard way to indicate information is a probability but not a certainty?

Barton Slisz: Most genealogy programs have notes capability, so be sure to include the source of the information. Some helpful abbreviations are Bef (before), Aft (after) and Abt (about) which are common in family trees.Good luck,Dave--http://www.familypulse.org...Show more

Alise Rutgers: Standard would be born OH, and your notes about census are evidence where he was enumerated. That said and done, because my gedcom's online and I want to be found, we are having to adapt slightly - my style would be: likely Montgomery Co, OH
