It is once again time for our annual Scotland Project check-in. Please respond within the next three weeks to let us know:
•If you would like to continue as a project member •If you are happy with your current teams or would you like to join a different team •How much time per month (on average) you spend working on Scottish profiles •Anything you’d like the Scotland Project to do more of in the future
You can respond to this message by posting a reply below or sending me a private message on WikiTree. If we don’t hear from you within the next three weeks we’ll assume your interests have changed or you are no longer able to participate in the Scotland Project at this time, and your badge will be removed. If your circumstances change later you will be welcome to reapply for membership.
On behalf of the Scotland Project, I would like to thank you for your commitment to the project's goals. Every single contribution you make helps improve Scottish profiles!
It's time for our annual Scotland Project check-in!
This year we are hoping to learn what our membership would like to accomplish over the next 12 months.
In case you aren't aware, this year is WikiTree's ""Year of Connections"" and the Project's leadership would like to contribute to this in as many ways as possible.
We would appreciate it if you would share your thoughts and ideas with us on how we can accomplish this goal. We would also appreciate it if you would provide some feedback on our existing goals, including:
If you have not yet signed up to help on one of the project's teams, which team(s) would you be interested in joining?
How often should we provide a Project Newsletter?
Have you participated in the Tartan Trail? If not, is this something you'd be interested in doing?
Do you have a question(s) that we could add to a Frequently Asked Questions page?
Any suggestions or ideas you have on ways to improve the Scotland Project in general
We continue to communicate with our Project members via Google Group (official) and Discord (unofficial), as well as G2G. You may also reach out to any of the Project leaders via WikiTree's internal messaging system at any time.
Thank you for all you do to help the Scotland Project become a knowledge hub for Scottish genealogical research! We wish you all the best in 2022!
Sincerely,
Amy Gilpin
on behalf of the Scotland Project Leaders
Scotland Project Leaders check in with you at least once a year to see how you are doing. With the changes happening around the world, we understand that life is hectic right now.
What are you planning to work on for the Scotland Project this year? Are you happy with the team(s) you part of, or would you like to make some changes?
This time round, we’re also looking for feedback on the use of Google Group and Discord. Do you use one or both of these? If you don’t use either of them, what is the best way to ensure you receive Project communications? If you would like to join us on Google Group or Discord, let us know in your response.
We'd love to have you join the Twisted Thistles
in the upcoming Connect-a-thon the weekend of July 17 - July 20. If you'd like to join us and help to develop our ever-expanding Scottish tree, please register on the G2G post here
and be sure to mention you'd like to be on the Twisted Thistles team for Scotland.
We haven’t heard back from you concerning the Scottish Clans Transition. If you are still interested and we haven’t received a response from you by 24 March 2020, you will be welcome to rejoin by answering the current g2g thread for joining the Scotland Project.
For the moment, it's just the McNaughten/McNaghten/McNachtan (various spellings) line. I have two separate pieces of good but circumstantial evidence that my ancestor of that name (1720 land records, Pennsylvania) came from Islay but have yet to find documentation or DNA evidence to strengthen the argument.
I don't know if this is of interest to anyone but there is a gentleman in England who is doing an "all McNaughten" branches DNA project, collecting publicly posted DNA data for anyone from any line, looking for common threads for the entire clan.
My name is Sarah and I’m the Project Coordinator for the Scotland Project. As you may have heard, we have merged the Scottish Clans project into the Scotland Project. I am contacting you today to find out if you are interested in continuing with us under this new format. If you would like to go forward on the Scottish Clans Team, please reply and let me know which clans you have been working on or would like to work on. I look forward to hearing from you.
I hadn't actually meant for you to remove everything just the repetitive bits. Appreciate it though as clears the suggestion.
For your reference you can find the link to your suggestion link in the drop down menu's at the top of you profile. Just click the word suggestion and it will populate a list if you have any others on the profiles you manage or are connected to
There is a huge number of repetitive bits of data - Ancestry Family Tree 1144935 this is only needed once appreciated it if you could delete the rest. The repetative use will create and error on the system.

Hi Will, welcome to WikiTree and thanks for your post on G2G.
Ive added the Scottish Clans Project badge to your profile. If you click on the badge it will take you to the full list of our members. Ive also added your name to our members interest
page. Here you can let others know what you are working on.
