I am an artist living on the west coast of Canada. My focus in ancestral research folds into my creative practice as a textile maker and wearer. Looking to better understand places of departure and places of arrival... looking into the clothing of place. What were the fibres, colours, plant fibres, sheep breeds and weaving structures my ancestors where wearing hundreds of years ago? Who did they displace on their arrival, and what where the plants and animals of those places that those communities had been in relationship with? this informs my own plant relationships as I grow and make my own garments and informs my own decolonization work. I am very new to geneology work, my grandparents Marion (White) Davies and Tom Davies did much research in the 60's to 80's and it is their research papers and notes to the family from which I am working.

Congratulations on certifying to work on pre-1700 profiles! It’s very important to read and understand the Help:Pre-1700 Profiles page. These profiles for deep ancestors are shared by many, and collaborating on them works best if we all follow the guidelines in the certification quiz.
Primary sources should always be added to pre-1700 profiles at the time they are created. If you don't have a source for a pre-1700 profile, it would be best to ask for help in the G2G forum before creating the profile.

We are so happy you decided to upgrade to the Family Member level.
Please visit our tutorial pages to learn how to use WikiTree: How To Use WikiTree. They will save you time, energy, and frustration as you add your family profiles.
Exploring the site is the best way to learn. One way to do that is to check out the drop-down menus on the top right side of your profile page. Finding a known ancestor and collaborating with the profile manager is another great way to start.
Questions? You can always use the G2G link in the Help Menu to find answers.
You mentioned that you don’t know much about your family tree yet. I assume you are new to genealogy. No problem! Every genealogist is a beginner at some point. Take your time, keep track of sources, and ask questions. Check here for tips.
