Hi Integrators Challenge Participants! 

It's time for this month's Integrators Challenge. Prior months' stats will be posted soon. Here's the Challenge Tracker Results Page that has up to the minute stats.

To participate:

  1. Answer here (not comment). You can use the Challenge Tracker (preferred) or list your contributions in the comments under your answer here. You only need to post once. 
  2. If you opt to use the Tracker you are ready to go. 
  3. If you opt to just post in this thread, list the G2G question you worked on and what you did here (answered the question, create a profile, source profile) in a comment on your answer. Number your contributions.
  4. All Challenge activity should involve G2G questions from two months ago or more. If the question is unanswered try to answer it.
  5. Add the URL/Webpage Address of the question used to create the profile(s) under your Answer here when a profile is created to answer a G2G question. 

Whatever question you choose, look at the information there and check to see if there is a profile on WikiTree yet. Yes? Move whatever information might be in the question to the profile, and put a link to the profile on the question in G2G so everyone is aware there is now a profile on WikiTree.

No profile? Create one (or a few if several people are mentioned in the question, comments, and answers), and do the same as above. 

These are some threads to get you started if you don't want to do some searching on your own. If you use one of these, comment on your post below with which you are working on so you aren't doubling up another's work. Everything should be sourced! 

The Monthly Challenge runs from midnight the first day of your month and ends at 11:59 the last day of the month, your time.

Ask any questions you have here in the thread.

Hi Dorothy many thanks for hosting this months Integrators Challenge and just added the tracker link :)  And everyone have fun and good luck !
I have been working on tying a G2G regarding an Obadiah Barnes who married a Tenannt 'farmer' and supposedly was poisoned when he tried to flee to Canada with his family. I have an Obadiah Barnes in my family that I have no information on except his wife and their children. I just happened to discover a FAG full of data and a bio to complete several profiles, but still no connection to O.B',s parents.

Hi Jodi, welcome to the Integrator project challenge this month!!  Glad you could join us and hope you can connect Obadiah to his parents.. but we will  still appreciate the data and any new profiles you decide to add.

Once you start adding, just answer below a brief update on what you did (don't comment please) so you will get full credit along with what the tracker tells us...   Dorothy B. Project Coordinator.

Encouraging all our Integrator project members/badge holders to join in the challenge!!!!

Signing up to continue working on the Integrator Challenge, I started earlier in the summer with the Rosborough family where I added several profiles. 

This time I found two orphaned Rosborough profiles and two more of the same people, with an inactive profile manager that had no sources or birth or death info. So updated all four, and adopted the two orphaned ones in order to merge them later in the month. 

https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Rosborough-94 William Logan Rosborough

Found FAG source for his  l year old infant  daughter "Carrie" so added new profile on her too. https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Rosborough-296

https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Rosborough-170 Roberta Rosborough daughter 

https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Ruff-873  Spouse of Roberta.
