How does one find out why someone in their tree is "Historically Significant"?

Question

I've looked throught the lists (Mayflower, Acadian, etc.), scoured his profile ... nada ... I'm sure it's easy, I must be going brain dead!  Oh, it's Thomas Dickinson

Answer 1

Profiles are marked historically significant when a user group is working on them. It's hard to tell from this profile which user group is involved. You could ask Kathy, since she's the one who locked the profile. She's involved in the European Aristocratic Ancestors and Mayflower groups, so it's probably one of those.
