Thank you for your interest in our project and contributions to our South African family tree

Hi Sharon,

I will have a look and sign up for the project, thank you.

Hello Lindsey - I see you have 1820 Ancestors. Please consider helping with the 1820Settler project and don't hesitate to contact me if you need any help in that regard.

Hi Lindsey, 😊

I noticed your G2G post to join the South African Roots Project, that's fantastic! May I give you some tips for South African research on WikiTree?

Besides links to sources, there are help pages that might also be useful. Many / most of the South African genealogical lines and profiles of the eighteenth and seventeenth periods (and earlier) have already been made. Many have also been validated with primary sources.

A few handy links:

• Pre-1700 Quiz (self-certifying in order to understand better how to do pre-1700 genealogical work on WikiTree.
• What are duplicates? Why should and how can they be avoided?
• South African Quick Links My new favourite page for helping find baptisms and marriages.
• Please use the correct location name as was used at the time of the event.
• And another one is name fields on profiles.

(In Afrikaans) - in Suid-Afrika, Nederland en elders word die tussenvoegsel in vanne met klein letters gespel, tensy dit anders op die primêre rekords gespel word, byvoorbeeld van der Merwe, van der Walt, van den Berg, du Preez, de Villiers ens. Die vanne wat aangemaak word met tussenvoegsels in hoofletters (dit gebeur automaties in WikiTree) , kan jy regmaak deur dit in “edit” mode te verander in 'n van met klein tussenvoegsels (met as rede aangee dat dit die konvensie is vir Afrikaanse vanne), en dan weer te “save”.

I am here to answer any question you have, no matter how trivial you may think it is. There is no such thing as a silly question. Please add as much information as you can, it all helps to turn a “name” back into a person. I hope you enjoy the site as much as I do.

Happy tree climbing

Hey Lindsey,

Now that you have had a little time to try WikiTree, there are a few features you may find useful.

Ideas on what to include in a profile can be found in Styles and Standards .

If you need to describe an event, heirloom or a location relevant to your research, try Free Space Profiles .

If you run into unresponsive profile managers. We have a process for resolving these unfortunate situations.

A project of note is the Global Family Reunion check it out at Global Family Reunion.

Questions? Ask via my profile page. Mags
