Communication Preferences: I am interested in communicating private message with cousins and anyone else with an interest in genealogy. Here is my family tree.
I have been interested in genealogy since I was a teen listening to family stories. I just wish I'd known to ask questions and write things down! So, that's what I've been doing for 40 years...writing things down. After my husband and I married, I wanted to know which of our relatives aimed across the battlefield at the other in the Civil War. His family on the South's side, mine on the North's. I found at least one incident, in Vicksburg. We both had an uncle and a grandfather there. His grandfather (1819-1863) was buried on the battlefield and my uncle (1839-1863) died of his wounds later in a hospital. His 3rd great-grandfather left a widow and young children; my 2nd great-grandfather went home to start a family. Genealogy makes history personal.

Hi Dorothy,

Thanks for taking the Pre-1700 Quiz!

Pre-1700 ancestors can be shared by many descendants, so collaboration is essential. You can learn more about joining the community in How To #3 and in the Project FAQ.

The Maryland Project may fit your research focus. If not, use the Pre-1700 Projects list to find other possibilities. Review the project page to learn about resources and guidelines as well as how to collaborate with the project members.

Have questions? Ask in the comments section of my profile.

Remember to cite reliable sources in pre-1700 profiles you manage, or edit. (See: Pre-1700 Reliable Sources).

Hi Dorothy,

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

Ideas on what to include in a profile can be found in Styles and Standards, including some tips on writing biographies.

If you need to describe an event, an heirloom or a location relevant to your research, you may like to learn about Free Space Profiles.

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

If you have any questions, feel free to ask via my profile page.

Hi! I've been working on my family tree for more than 30 years. It is usually just a weekend project because of other responsibilities. I also enjoy learning where my family fit in history. I've found so many interesting things in history where my family would have had first had knowledge, I wish I would have known these things when I was still in school! I did find that my family and my husband's family most likely stared across the battlefield at each other in Vicksburg! If they had only known, huh!

I will abide by WikiTree's rules and gladly add to the information as accurately as I can. Dorothy Mathis Vance
