David, I'm copying your message and my reply here on your page just to make sure that you get it. --GayelKnott 20:30, 1 October 2018 (UTC)

BC Tanner and Ray O Tanner [1 October 2018]

If you look at the monuments for BC sr and Ray O sr, you will see they were concurrently married to women named Ethel. It is not possible these are the same men. They may have been related, but I did not know any Tanners, other than Uncle BC, Aunt Ethel, and their children, BC jr and Shirley Ann. BC stands for Bergia Cowean. BC jr and Shirley Ann are also buried in Pinecrest Cemetery, Mobile AL. How do we stop the propagation of incorrect information?--DML 19:31, 1 October 2018 (UTC)

Hi, David. Thanks for the information you have provided. None of the pages you originally added for B C Tanner and Ethel had any real information, and no sources. If you do not want people changing the information you have provided, you really do need to add sources to show where you got that information and to show why you think it is right. Without that documentation, and with little else in the way of information, there are many people who will try to "fill in the blanks". As they do try to add missing information, and particularly as they try to find sources for the information, they will probably make changes. I've used the information you have just provided to hopefully make the page for Bergia a little more accurate, but it would really help if you could provide some more sources.
