My husband is taking every minute of my time as his health deteriorates. I love genealogy, especially researching my ancestors who fought for our country’s freedoms. However, I am going to have to bow out of the Military & War project at this time. Thank you Diane

Mary,

I’m working to improving the profiles of those in my family who served in the military. I’ve discovered, through working on this, just how MANY of my ancestors were in the military but also served during a war. It’s been an amazing journey. I’m a bit slow but that comes with old age I guess. Diane Peel-486

Thanks for replying to the M& W Check in, Diane. Do not worry about being slow. You are probably very careful in your work. SO I marked you active.

I’m not sure exactly what to do. If you will give me suggestions on what is needed I’ll do it. I signed up for the project because I have about 12 Patriot ancestors. I’ve been so busy cleaning up biographies I really haven’t concentrated on the 1776 Project. Diane

posted by Diane (Peel) Walls
Thank you for the response, Diane. Working on the biographies of your own patriot ancestors is a good way of contributing to 1776 Project. In addition, take a look at our 1776 Profile Improvement Team page for other ideas on how to contribute.

Good luck and Best regards, Betty

Betty, I don’t believe I have joined a team for the 1776 Project. Can you add me to the PROFILE IMPROVEMENT TEAM, especially cleaning biographies and adding sources.

Diane, I have added you to the Profile Improvements Team. Since we don't have a team leader at present, take a look at this information sheet for more about the Profile Improvements Team.

Good luck! Betty

posted by Betty (Skelton) Norman
Thanks.

I had already looked at this before deciding on which team I wanted to be on. I WILL be referring back to it though. As a 20+ year member of the DAR and other lineage societies and a member of several Historical Societies, I am a stickler on documentation and making sure the person IS the person one is looking for. I'm looking forward to helping improve the Profiles for those who are our country's Patriots. If it's ok, I'm going to start with those in my family, then I'd like to see about those in my DAR Chapter. Diane

Hi Diane,

Congratulations on certifying to work on pre-1700 profiles! It’s very important that you read and understand the Pre-1700 Profiles help page. These profiles for deep ancestors are shared by many, and collaborating on them works best if we all follow the guidelines laid out on that page.

Hi Diane,

Don't feel crazy, it takes a little time to figure out WikiTree when you first get here. It'll feel much better as soon as you get the swing of it.

I checked and do not see where you have uploaded your gedcom yet. Under your name where it says "Diane's 3 contributions" is where I clicked to see. You can use that to check yourself :)

Let me know whenever and however I can be helpful.
