Thomas Stringer was first married to Sarah Allen she passed away. He then married her sister Tabitha Allen. I can't merge them because it would wipe out one wife. At least that is what I think will happen. I tried to merge them once before. If I'm wrong tell me how to do it. Cheryl Pardue.

We're 7th cousins through "Abraham Dew" on my mother's Mom's side. =)

Hi =) Just thought I'd let you know that we're 7th cousins through the Dew's. I see some other names too that are in my tree as well. Small world.

Here's some info that will help, was something that would have cut A LOT of reseaech time, if I had known.

The area where you will find many of your lines, today Marion, Marlboro, and Dillon Counties; was known as multiple names, depending on the time period. Marion District/ Marlboro Co, Georgetown District,/ Liberty, Georgetown District/ Prince Fredericks Parish, Georgetown District/ Prince Georges Parish, Georgetown District/ Carolana

These links can explain it better. Hope they help.

HELLO COUSIN! lol You are one of the first DNA matches that I have found on wikitree. I believe that you can DNA confirm your line, at least as far as Henry Hayes,as I too have his line. Though, we may be related on your Sherrod Smith line. I am pretty sure that he is descended from my John Smith b. Circa 1710. Also, I can help you with your Finklea line! I have a connection in my Wise line Finklea Geewood Wise is a ancestor Uncle to me. I'll include links to info on the Finklea (and other lines) of yours! Nice to "meet" you! Hope it helps!

This week we have your last stop on the guided tour. Hopefully, you're feeling like a WikiTree pro! If not, you can always revisit the tour stops via the comment boxes on the right side of your profile.

You've covered a lot of ground the past few weeks. Today, we want to give you just a few more tools that can take you even deeper into the WikiTree forest without getting lost: How to Dig a Little Deeper.

Please do not hesitate to ask questions!

Thanks, WikiMesssenger Cindy

PS Good work so far! Have you noticed on your ancestor profiles on the bottom right is "Research" where you can get sources and more information? Give it a try sometime!

Carla,

You may have been hard at work getting connected to family members who are already here and adding those who were missing. You probably have at least a few profiles that you manage now.

There's a fast and easy way to access those profiles using the Watchlist. So, this week we're going to look at How to Manage Your Watchlist.

Please let one of us know if you have questions! Just click my name above the comment, then ask in the comment section of my page. We want to help!

Carla --

You've been here for several weeks now! We hope your profiles are starting to come together and that you've enjoyed getting to know all of us a little better.

You're probably getting a good feel for the collaborative nature of WikiTree by now. We know that collaboration isn't always easy. So, we've put together a few pointers that can make working in this type of environment a little easier: How to be a Successful WikiTreer.

As always, your questions are welcome!
