Hi Margaret, I note your comment on the proposed merge of Duggan-414 and Dugan-275. WikiTree is a collaborative system where individuals with duplicated profiles are required to be merged. Once merged the profile managers of each then, if they wish, share the management. You will therefore have access to the other profile after the merge is completed.

From what I can can see these are definitely the same person and you manage both so they do need to be merged.

Hi Margaret,

Congratulations, you have now been a WikiTree member for one month! Here are a few ways to dive in even deeper:

• Check out Beyond the Basics of WikiTree for a guide to topics like Projects, Categories, and Merging.

• To find projects that could benefit from your help, see Volunteers Needed.

• WikiTree is active on several Social Media Sites. Check out our blog where you'll find a monthly newsletter along with tips, interviews, and guest posts from people in the larger genealogy community.

Let me know if I can be of help.

Hi!

Just checking in with a few quick tips:

Free Space pages are wiki pages for supplementing your family history. They can be used to profile anything of significance such as a special pet, a meaningful event, a school you attended, a family heirloom .... They're "anything pages".

Not sure what to include in a profile? Check out our Biography Ideas and Styles and Standards help pages.

Lastly, sometimes you'll run into unresponsive profile managers. We have a process for resolving those unfortunate situations.

If you have any questions, please ask!

Hi Margaret, and welcome to WikiTree! You mentioned your ancestors in Ireland, Scotland and England. I wanted to let you know we have a great new project that focuses on the UK here called United Kingdom Project It includes our Scottish Clans Project and links to our Irish Roots Project They would be a great places for you to get involved once you have settled into WikiTree.

You may find some of your ancestors are already on WikiTree and the people in both projects will be happy to help you in any way they can.

Thank you so much for joining WikiTree. Good luck with your research.
