Hi Cameo and welcome!

We have a long way to go before we can connect you to Queen Victoria.  smiley  Because of privacy rules, we can't work on living people. 

I found your great-great grandparents' marriage, Oklahoma 1927:

"Oklahoma, County Marriages, 1890-1995", database with images, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QVP6-JFKZ : 5 November 2017), James E Lawson and Sarah Ellen Miller, 1927.

You need to correct James's birth in his profile - you have him born after his son, and he's 35 years younger than his wife.

He is buried in Del City, OK:

Find A Grave, database and images (https://www.findagrave.com : accessed 07 August 2018), memorial page for James Edward Lawson (15 Nov 1903–15 Oct 1985), Find A Grave Memorial no. 86399282, citing Sunny Lane Cemetery, Del City, Oklahoma County, Oklahoma, USA ; Maintained by J Martin Graham (contributor 47263072) .

Is this your grandfather?

Find A Grave, database and images (https://www.findagrave.com : accessed 07 August 2018), memorial page for John Robert Conkling (27 May 1936–10 Jul 1986), Find A Grave Memorial no. 22058161, citing Elmwood Cemetery, Hartshorne, Pittsburg County, Oklahoma, USA ; Maintained by MillieBelle (contributor 46628380) .

These are sources you can add to your WikiTree profiles.  We can help you find more.  You can help us by adding as much accurate information as you have to your profiles, especially for your most recent non-living ancestors.

It looks like you're unable to add people because you haven't signed the Honor Code.

Here are some steps to get you headed in the right direction:

1. Read through the Honor Code and sign it. You can find it here: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Special:Honor_Code

2. Start working through the New Member How To pages here: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:New_Member_How-To

Both of those steps will help you understand how WikiTree works and how to add your family, and you always have the community here to help you, too! :-)

Good luck!
