For this great-grandparent challenge, in honour of all the front-line workers who have been risking their lives to save ours, I am featuring more medical figures. Most of these people are not connected to the main tree, and none of them have a full set of great-grandparents listed on WikiTree. In order for us to add a list to the Relationship Finder Quick Links page, each person on it needs to have at least one line going back as far as their great-grandparents (and preferably all eight lines).
The task is to seek out, source, and add profiles for as many missing great-grandparents as you can find. The rules are the same as for the first Quest for Great-Grandparents: Medical Edition.
I finally added the final four profiles to bring this challenge up to 14 people. Currently, it's tied for 17th place in terms of percent complete, at 30.4%. In terms of great-grandparents still to find, it's in a three-way tie for 16th place, at 78.
Somebody has added all eight of Louis Pasteur's great-grandparents. That moves this challenge up to sixteenth place in terms of percent complete, at 37.5%. In terms of great-grandparents still to find, it's in 15th place, at 70.
okay, i got all 8 (two of them are the same couple, but i'm not going to say that made it easier, because although one Wood/Wood marriage was between cousins, another was between what appears to be unrelated Wood families, and with all the forenames being the same as well, it was tricky).
This family is not yet connected to the tree. It seems to have lots of other notables. Tomorrow i will have another look for the purpose of getting connected. There are other sources available as well - but i'm done for tonight!
Merges are done, thanks to Greg Webber for a very quick response! So Dr. Wood is connected to the tree.
Splendid work, Shirlea!
Oh, wow! Connected to the main tree, and six great-grandparents in only 32 minutes? That has to be some kind of record!
