I am sorry that I did not contact you first as you are the profile manager for Peter Heximer, but I just started out simply wanting to add him as the father of Olive, who married my great uncle, Robert Joseph Holmes. In the end, I went down the genealogical rabbit hole and did a comprehensive biography with sources. I hope that you do not mind.

I wrote to you recently as part of the England Project's six-monthly check-in with our project members. I haven't heard back from you. I hope you are well.
If you could please drop me a quick note to confirm whether you are still interested in the project and wish to remain an active member, that would be very helpful.
If we do not hear from you within the next 2 weeks, we will assume you are no longer active in the England Project and remove you from our list of project members. You would be most welcome to re-apply to join the project at a later time by signing-up on the project’s G2G welcome post.
Many thanks!

Thank you ~ Sheryl ~ WiikiTree Greeter
We've put together a survey for you to fill out to check in with you, it will only take a moment as there are only a few questions. Filling out the survey lets us know you are still interested in coordinating your study and provides an opportunity for you to share any suggestions you may have for the project.
If you have decided to step away from your study, please reply to this comment to that effect.

I would like to thank you for all your contributions towards the goals of the England Project during the past year. We've achieved a huge amount during this period and we couldn't have done it without you and our other project members.
As the England Project Leaders, we are completing our six monthly check-in with our project members.
Are you happy to stay in your current project teams? Are there other teams you would like to join or become more active in?

On your tree you have Isabel Hepburn (born Stark). She is the sister of Jane Balfour (born Stark) who is my great grandmother on my father's side. I have merged them on my tree. I have also sourced a 1851 Scotland Census which shows the names of the Stark family.
Take care
Bill Everett
I am trying to create a profile for my cousin Jennifer Mary Hooker born July 24, 1981. Can you verify or deny that this is the same person as the profile you created, please?
It's that time of the year again: check-in time! As England Project Leaders, we like to check in with you every six months or so to see how things are progressing. Back in May, we didn't ask for a response due to the rapid emergence of Covid-19 because we understood that people's lives were changing rapidly. While we are still living in a Covid world, we do need to hear back from you this time around.
First of all, how are you doing? What are you currently working on? Are you happy with the team(s) you're in, or would you like to change things up?
Secondly, we're looking for some feedback on the Google Group and our Discord server. Do you use either or both of these? If you don't use either, why not? Do you have any suggestions on how we can improve participation and collaboration, either generally or for you personally?
Looking forward to hearing from you,
Joan, Amy & Lizzie.

Thanks for checking in. I've been spending quite a bit of time working on my family tree adding relatives, sources and biographies which is a huge task that doesn't leave me much time to contribute to the Norfolk Team, but I'm happy there to contribute when I can.
All the best, Gary
Your England Leaders are completing the six monthly check in with all team members. I wanted to thank you for your work on English Profiles. These are unprecedented and difficult times, and we understand as Project Leaders that your situation may have changed somewhat in the last few months. What we are all able to/ wish to contribute on Wikitree has changed. Please let me know if you are happy with your current role and team choice or if you wish to do something additional or different.

We sent you a message about a week ago about the England Project but have not yet heard back from you. If we don't hear from you by this time next week we'll assume you no longer wish to be in the project.

On behalf of the England Project Leaders we're carrying out a check-in to see how all the members are doing and taking the opportunity to thank you for all your hard work over the past six months. We have been so impressed with the way everyone has rallied together and gone the extra mile to make this one of the most dedicated, productive and friendly communities on WikiTree. What are you enjoying most about being in the project? What would you like to see improved or changed? Would you like to continue in the project moving forwards?
We're looking forward to hearing back from you,
Susie, Gillian, Wendy and Amy
