This is the more difficult part of it all. Do I just list Facts and Fiction, or do I show where and who posted this information?

 The first advice is to be very doubtful of genealogical sites, or where people publish their ancestry online. Simply because you don't know where they got their information from, and whether they have verified its accuracy. Simply quoting sources is no guarantee that the information is correct. And you really can't "trust" many of the authors who have published "authoritive" books, particularly before the 1990's, when information and databases were not as available as they are now. This is not limited to your own ancestry or family name. It includes the "in-laws".

 Having said this, you should definitely look at the "in-laws" of your family and what they say. Not surprisingly, they may tell you more about your family than what your own family is prepared to disclose. And in many instances, the "in-laws" may have information and sources that your own family don't have.

 And to confirm my suspicions about the quality of the work published by Pama, read an extract published 14 April 2010 by eGSSA (Genesis 26, P4). There they confirm that Family Crests published by Pama were mostly incorrect and that N.H. Theunissen "thumb sucked" them! )

 I cannot emphasise it enough. Verify, check and re-check your information, firsthand! To find "real" information about the Venter family, go to the Venter Community
