Don:
My father did a lot of genealogical research when he was applying for a coat of arms. He had to demonstrate a lineage from Scotland as he was applying to the Lord Lyon's court. (Said he was glad as it was cheaper than England.) This was his retirement project but didn't occupy as much time as he expected.
I now have his drawings of the family tree.
About 70 years ago, someone in the family gave him a portrait of "Great Uncle George" as they thought he looked like it. My sister has it now and ecently asked me who George was. I looked at the tree and there were two Georges in likely spots.
While he was doing his research, he found errors in the government records. He pointed them out and was told that for a fee they would fix them.
