Eric and Kathy, I suggest we go back to the beginning on this family. Eric originally entered a profile for Richard Green-13986, 1740-1794. Please both of you, do not make changes unless you have a source for the data. Ancestry.com is not considered an acceptable source but if that is all you have use it with exactly what and where on Ancestry.com so others can find it.
Now that you are a member of WikiTree, you are helping to build one Collaborative Global Family Tree. This means only one profile per person. It's important that no duplicates are created and profiles are properly sourced - if you have pre-1700's ancestors to add please read our Pre-1700 profiles info.
To help you get started, view this introductory WikiTree video.
Welcome to WikiTree! The initial email from us has helpful links that will get you started on WikiTree, which is not like any genealogy site youve ever used.
WikiTree is different because our goal is to have one profile per person, and that means we all work together as a BIG collaborative team!
What brings you to WikiTree? Do you have research youd like to share? Are you interested in how your family fits into the big tree? When you confirm your email address, youll have an opportunity to volunteer and tell us about your genealogical interests.
Once you volunteer, one of our Greeters will be happy to confirm your membership, and youll be on your way!
Welcome to the family! Were really glad youre here.
Thanks
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.
