Hi, I am Dorothy, a WikiTree mentor!! Are you enjoying your time on WikiTree so far?

Now that you have had a little time to try our site, there are a few more features you may find useful:

For instance, ideas on what to include in a profile can be found in Styles and Standards; including some tips on writing biographies

Also a friendly reminder about adding sources and references to your profile. This page describes different kinds of sources: http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Sources

• Oh, by the way do you want to Join us? Please click the volunteer button and leave a comment here on your profile about your genealogical journey and if you want to contribute.

Thanks, Dorothy

Welcome to WikiTree as a guest !

You are probably here because you wondered about WikiTree. If you would like to enjoy the benefits of being a full member, leave us a message here letting us know that you read Volunteers at WikiTree

Once we see a message on your profile stating why you want to be a part of our collaborative genealogical community, one of our greeters will confirm you.

Enjoy this video done by one of our members about WikiTree video

Have a great day ! Maggie

Thanks for the note! Feel free to look around and use the search tab to find your relatives.

WikiTree is a collaborative site for people of all experience levels. Did you volunteer because you want to start adding your family and contribute to our shared tree? If so post another note when you're ready and we will confirm you to full member status.

If you just want to find out more about a specific person, you don't need to Volunteer. You will find the People Search under 'Find' in the menus, upper right of this page. You can also ask questions in the G2G forum. If you do decide that you would like to become a full member you will need to confirm your email address. Kern Brogan WikiTree Greeter

Trying this as a new search site. I have hit a stone wall

Welcome to WikiTree! The initial email from us has helpful links that will get you started on WikiTree, which is not like any genealogy site you’ve ever used.

WikiTree is different because our goal is to have one profile per person, and that means we all work together as a BIG collaborative team!

What brings you to WikiTree? Do you have research you’d like to share? Are you interested in how your family fits into the big tree? When you confirm your email address, you’ll see a Volunteer option on your profile page. Click that and leave us a short message about your genealogical interests. A Greeters Project volunteer will be happy to confirm your membership, and you’ll be on your way! Welcome to the family! We’re really glad you’re here.
