AncestryRegister.com has adopted an integrated set of geneapology quality standards that expand the potential scope of any family history beyond that available using traditional genealogy standards. The difference in standards is easily understood - traditional genealogy judges an entry's acceptability using a 'beyond a reasonable doubt' standard (i.e. unquestionably true), while geneapography accepts a 'preponderance of the evidence' standard (i.e. more likely than not to be true). Any entry that meets the geneapography standard but not that of genealogy is required to include a 'Qualifier' denoting which of six permitted reasons best describe the additional entry (Click HERE to learn more about the six types of qualifiers used by geneapography). Click about Geneapography to learn more about AR's new approach to creating Family Histories.
 
'Legendary' Entries are qualified as follows :
   Any person entry that lacks contemporary evidence for their existence, but whose existence and ancestry is attested to in widely accepted later histories or texts, should be identified using the 'Legendary' Qualifier. For example, certain Scandinavian and Anglo Saxon sagas like 'Beowulf' detail events and ancestries for which their is no surviving corroborative evidence. Provided they are properly qualified, their inclusion in a family may add interesting color and insight into a family's early history. The word 'Legendary' should appear in the entry's Title Prefix, Title Suffix or Given Name in any database submitted for publication (see also AncestryRegister.com Style Sheet).
   [Special Note]:This qualifier is appropriate for persons whose existence and relationships are known only from ancient histories or religious texts, but lack corroborative contemporary evidence. Since the further back in time one goes, the greater the likelihood such evidence - even if it once existed - has since disintegrated or been destroyed, only the later texts now remain. Inclusion of anyone based on such sources - whether they be early Anglo-Saxon, Scandinavian or French kings, or early religious figures - requires them to receive at least the 'Legendary' or 'Mythical' qualifier.
