extracted - what's special about it?

Post by corner_shop »

What does "extracted" mean? Surely everything is extracted! I get the impression looking at some posts that it has a special meaning. Unfortunately its lost on me, anyone know?

Hi Cornershop, extracted is a reliable source, from the actual Parish Register, submissions are sent in by any tom dick or harry and are unreliable. HTH from Linell.

But still be careful, even extracted information can be inaccurately copied.
Currently investigating the Hillmans of Sussex.
