New member introducing myself

Question

Hello, I have been researching my family genealogy for many years, often working with my mother. She is gone now, but I have information I'd like to share. My main interests are finding out about "John Clark" who may have lived in the Rahway area in the late 1700-early 1800s, on my father's side, and "Ebenezer Buck" who lived at about the same time and married Sally Rial in central New Jersey.

Answer 1

Welcome aboard. I have found that Wikitree has been very rewarding for the last four years I've been here. Hopefully you will find the same thing.

Feel free to edit this post, and place the Buck & Rial names in under the tags as well, and perhaps New_Jersey. It will help bring attention to more people who have similar interests.

Also feel free to contact your greeter, if you need any help with learning Wikitree, because it does have a little learning curve. When you've been on a little while, and are starting to get your head around it, consider going on the Voyage, with the Profile Improvement Project. They have lots of great tips to help make your profiles look better.

Once again, welcome aboard. Look out for the weekly videos on YouTube as well, with the current challenge each week of this year.

Answer 2

Welcome to WikiTree, Mary. If you insert Clark or Buck on your profile page at the very top where you see your surname and click the search button, you will be able to see all of the Clarks and Bucks that are currently listed on WikiTree.  You may find that your relative is already on WikiTree.

I hope this helps you, and that you grow to love WikiTree as much as I have.
