Ok Thanks
That's great, Kathleen Johnson, can you repost your source-a-thon request as an answer? The system works better for assigning race numbers that way. Sorry for the inconvenience. I have your number waiting for you (-:

Please sign me up; I think I'll be able to do this at least one of the days.  I don't know which team; is there a 'general' one?  If we source profiles outside of our 'team', do they still count?  It'd be great if we could have a EuroAristo team; I just don't have time to head it up...  Thanks!

http://www.wikitree.com/images/source-a-thon/bibs/355.pngSuper, Darlene ! Your number is 355. Thanks for helping with the source-a-thon.

Any profiles from any Unsourced category counts, Darlene. The teams are more for morale and to have distinct pages to track contributions on. Please, source those EA profiles ;-)

Howdy,
  If I understand things right I'm supposed to post "Sign Me Up".

  I'll be traveling but may have some computer time Sun/Mon. Concentrate on Massachusetts, 1850 to 1930, that's my normal haunts.
