Abstract: A method includes receiving a genealogical data element and determining a rating, wherein the rating is associated with the genealogical data element. The method also includes receiving a rating associated with a second genealogical data element; and using the rating associated with the second genealogical data element to adjust the rating associated with the genealogical data element. An apparatus includes a genealogical data element and a rating, wherein the rating is associated with the genealogical data element and the rating is determined from a rating of a first genealogical data element and a rating of a second genealogical data element.
