The two responses that would be considered trustworthy, reliable sources of evidence to support a claim are:

  1. Information stated by a trusted adult
  2. An article in a scholarly journal

These sources are generally more reliable and credible compared to an online ad or a blog, which may not be subjected to rigorous scrutiny. Town census records can also be considered reliable; however, depending on context, they may not be as immediately relevant as the other two options listed.
