Hi, I am trying to pin down and standardize some unclear Swedish locations, but I have a problem with one of the profiles you manage; Paul Lennard Johnson [Johnson-118509]. I can't figure out if he is supposed to be born in Visby (old spelling Wisby) on the island Gotland or maybe somewhere in Värmland (old spelling Wermland, could be mistaken for Warnland). And I have no guess for the middle part "Summis" . Do you have any more clues? 🙂

Hello Helena, that was the info on his US Naturalization Record in Washington state. On a Sweden Indexed Birth Record Paul is recorded born in Sunnemo, Varmland, Sverige. Household Clerical Survey adds: Nora Vasby as village or farm. His father, Erik Johan Larsson, mother Maria Persdotter. It just befuddles me how they keep track of family. Hope this helps.

Thank you for adding your DNA Test information to your profile on WikiTree. Your information will be propagated to the profiles of your parents and your ancestors within about 24 hours of being added. It will also propagate to the profiles of the descendants of your ancestors, so they may see your information under the heading "DNA Connections" just as you can see theirs.

Getting started with DNA outlines how to proceed to use your DNA test information on WikiTree and DNA is a link to a collection of links about WikiTree's many features involving DNA.

The DNA Connections list on your profile will provide a visual way for you to find potential relatives on WikiTree who have also added their DNA test information. Using DNA tools at sites like GEDMatch.com, if you find a relative that matches your DNA sufficiently and you have genealogical sources for the intermediate relationships, you can mark the specific parental relationships back to the most recent ancestor that you both share as "confirmed with DNA." For details, guidance, and examples of how to properly document DNA confirmations, see DNA confirmation.

To get the best results, begin adding sourced profiles for your ancestors until you can connect to ancestors already in WikiTree. If you have exhausted what you know on one line, it can sometimes help to add what you know on another line. The more branches you are able to add the greater the likelihood of finding potential cousins to match with. The process of identifying which branch elements of DNA relate to will better enable you to find matches that relate to the particular branches you are researching.

Let me know if you have any questions and have fun!

Thank you for the welcome to Wikitree. I hope I am doing everything right but it is an extensive web site. My first question for you. I am trying to add Rebecca Ryan ( Ryan-7417) to my tree but get " No Profile Manager" to ask permission of. How do I add her to my tree?

I know this comment wasn't directly to me but I do have an answer!

You can go into the edit tab and add family members through there. Or because there is no profile manager, you can adopt the profile and become the profile manager yourself. To do that, you'll notice next to where it says "no profile manager" on the profile page, there is a link that says "adopt this profile".

Hope that helps!

Hi Ross

Danielle is corrected that you can adopt her profile. Are you trying to connect her to one of her children that you have already made a profile for. If so, on that profile, you can either go to edit and select add mother or click where it shows unknown mother on the child's profile, on the next screen instead of adding all the parents' information you would enter the profile name and number, such as Ryan-7417.
