along and finds their ancestor listed with the whole genealogy already done. Wow! It’s so easy to just copy it and add it to your own database. Dozens of people do this, and so when you type in “Daniel J. Monahan, b. 1849,” 50 family trees show up, all with the exact information. It must be true if so many people have it, correct? These are great clues, but just use them as that. Have you ever considered that the whole family tree you just found online could be the figment of someone’s imagination and just put on as a prank? I could do this myself very easily, and it would be copied by everyone who found it and be taken as fact. Scary, isn’t it? All that “stuff” you have copied may be wrong. This is why professional genealogist preach; “document, document, document and “always site your
sources.” If you will notice, most Internet family trees have no sources, many have no person to contact and if they do, the contact person has no useful information. They will tell you they just copied it from someone else. In genealogical research, the rule of thumb is that you need three sources who agree before the fact is proven. That is often tough to do, and at times impossible, but it will stand the test of time when accomplished. The sayings go, “garbage in, garbage out,” and “if you want something done right, do it yourself.” These are especially true in genealogy. You will be amazed at how much more appreciation and connection to these ancestors you have, by finding them yourself.

But one of the overall best things about this restaurant is the way it matches quality and price. Its mini-desserts are $3. They’re far from bite-size, and many arrive at the table with a dollop of Breyer’s vanilla bean ice cream. The chocolate chunk cookie sandwich brilliantly combines warm freshly baked goods with an ice cream center, chocolate fudge ripples, swirls of caramel and a dab of whipped cream. A cute fruit and mascarpone cake has sweet mascarpone cheese frosting nestled between two rounds of moist yellow cake. It’s covered with

fresh and juicy strawberries and blueberries that give it a taste of summer, and is finished with a dollop of whipped cream. One of my favorites was the bourbon pecan cupcake. Vanilla ice cream, a moist cupcake and candied pecans helped deliver a sumptuously light take on the traditional pecan pie. The best or worst thing, depending on how you look at it, is that you don’t have to choose just one dessert at Tony Roma’s. Eight dollars buys you Tony’s dessert trio, a sampling of three sweet treats served side by side in a feast for the eyes and the taste buds.
