Congratulations, you've been a WikiTree member for a month! We're glad you're here. A few tips to help you dive in even deeper:
Check out Beyond the Basics of WikiTree for a guide on some of our more advanced features such as Projects, Categories, and Merging.
We're very active on our social sites and we have an excellent blog where you'll find our monthly newsletter as well as tips, interviews with our members and guest posts from others in the genealogy community.
As always, I'm here to help if you have any questions!
Thanks for your message regarding the information your father already collected on your family history. I have found WikiTree to be an excellent tool for research and collaboration.
You are now a member of the WikiTree Community. Please note we are trying to build one Collaborative Tree which means one profile per person. It is important to ensure no duplicates are entered as you add Profiles to WikiTree. Once you entered your family members it is exciting to see other people finding your family profiles, asking questions, and expanding it.
If you need any help getting started check out the help section from the menu, top left, or head over to the G2G forum, you might want to check out the introductory WikiTree video that a member created.
Our Mentor Team are a friendly bunch of volunteers who will be glad to help you with specific problems if you have any.
Great to have you on board, good luck growing your branches, and thanks for offering to help with our shared tree.
2. Our Help pages have all sorts of useful information.
3. Our Honor Code is a very important part of why our community is such a friendly place to grow your family tree so please take some time to read it.
4. Explore the Family Tree & Tools tab at the top of your profile.
If you like to grow your own family tree and agree with our Mission & 9 Simple Rules, click the Volunteer button and leave a comment here on your profile on how you can contribute.
More importantly, have fun growing your family tree and connecting to persons with the same interest.
