Welcome
Michael F. Harris, Volunteer Greeter
It started out that I was looking to find my Grandfather's Brothers and sisters for my Mom, But instead I found a brother on the 1930 census that my mom knew nothing about. My Mom had a big family, 7 girls and 6 boys. There are only 3 girls and 2boys left. So I am still looking and learning more every day.
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 youve 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 youd like to share? Are you interested in how your family fits into the big tree? When you confirm your email address, youll see a Volunteer option on your profile page. Click that and leave us a short message here on your profile about your genealogical interests. A Greeters Project volunteer will be happy to confirm your membership, and youll be on your way!
Just checking in with a few quick tips:
Looking to make more connections or find more information about an ancestor but not sure how to do that? Try categorizing your profiles.
Not sure what to put into a biography? Here are some Bio Ideas. Also, make sure that the biographies match WikiTrees Styles and Standards.
If you come across an unresponsive manager, we have a process for those unfortunate situations.
If you have any questions, please ask!!
