   Each person uploads their Gedcom of verifiable information, and they then get   
   added to    
   a huge database of other verifiable individuals.  Plus, there are teams of   
   researchers    
   whose goal it is to combine this information to create one global connection.   
      
   I trust the information simply because of the dedication they have.
