Hi Steven,

Loved the color and various sized text...really grabs the attention!

---

Not sure where to post my guess total number of how much we get done. My guess is 175,000.

I unconnected a potential merge because I thought the wives were different people, but then found a source showing they were the same person. I said I corrected it, but I didn't. How do I fix my mistake?

---

I'd restart the merge, put the documentation for the wives matching on both wives, and then start the wife merge.

---

If I can freelance across the counties, count me in for the Mighty Oaks Connect a Thon please.

No.  This one was the Clean-a-Thon.  You need to go  post an answer -- not a comment or reply -- to the thread I linked.

I have not added all of my family lines yet to my "wiki tree". I do know my maternal & paternal lines; Kittle/ Burke and Roberson/Fernander/ Huccaby- most- seem to have started in the colonies in the 1500-1600. There are records in Massachusetts, Ann Arundel Co. Maryland, and New York,  I have not been very active on wiki lately; perhaps this activity will motivate me to continue.
