Welcome to WikiTree! I am Dave Draper and I am delighted to see you join our community. Here, we are passionate about building a single family tree and discovering our ancestry. I hope you find WikiTree as exciting and rewarding as I have. There is a learning curve so here is a link that might help you get started. WikiTree How To Here is How To Do IT

That being said, as you add your pedigree to this tree, magical things happen!  Connections are made, cousins are generated.  After two years on this site WikiTree discovered 1,948 connections for me, both family and marriage connections.  WikiTree isn't a personal tree, its a community tree.  It took me a while to learn the full power of this tree.  We are here to help, because there is a lot to learn!

Welcome aboard!

Your next step is to upgrade to family member. It's free to upgrade. Then you can start adding your family branches and digging into the research.

Come back here to the forum if you have any questions.

Hello cousin C. Kester!  I have left a message on your profile before finding out you had made this post.  Dave has given you some very good information.  I do not know if we are cousins, but am looking forward to find out either way.  And again welcome to the branches of WikiTree.  Virgil M. Kester III (Kester-460).
