I have been researching every Tomlinson line, and anyone who came in contact with them, that could possibly lead to the parents of my 3rd great grandfather who showed up in Hanover Co, VA in 1820.

FamilySearch's full text search feature that came out a few years ago was a game changer providing instant access to unindexed records like court minutes, estate settlements, guardian bonds, etc. I haven't broken my brick wall yet but I have shared my findings and broken brick walls for others. That is rewarding to me.

Find a Grave is an invaluable resource to help memorialize ancestors. As a county's, and even another country's, legal documents have become easier to access, there will be more suggestions and corrections needed. Even tombstones, death notices, and more modern death certificates, not even mandatory until 1933, were based on the information the informant provided about the deceased. Keep in mind that the person managing a memorial has provided the most accurate information they had at the time it was written.
