This makes Robert the ninth great grandfather of Pat.
Pat, the daughter of Mel and Helen Fuller, was born in the early 1950s in Moline, Illinois.[1] Later years have focused on her new interest in genealogy. Below continues more details of the surnames and other lines to study. If there were only more time left ...
Researching ancestors of my Parents:
My father descended from two Mayflower passengers named FULLER. He was a typographer as far back as I can remember.
My mother's family were farmers but she called those Weavers "a WILD bunch".
Breaking down BrickWall: George Weaver (1817 - 1892),'s FindAGrave memorial 17897960 gives clues of his parentage from an obituary published in Rock Island County during 1885. Immigration was listed as about 1828 when he was 11 has not been verified.
Researching ancestors of my Family:
Children of First Marriage: My first marriage was to a Sweeney who married a James, some say a distant cousin to Jesse. Though not an official Name Study, I do have an interest in reseaching my children's surname, SWEENEY, a surname of interest.
Grandchildren: The Babcocks and Stewart lines are paternal ancestors of one of my granddaughters. It's easy to Remember where these lines come together:
Remember's Father, Robert was the grandson of James Badcock who was born in England about 1612 and was living in Rhode Island by 1642. Remember's father and grandfather were born and died in Rhode Island. Remember lived there until moving to Stoniington, Connecticut where she married Phineas during 1745. It is not known how long she had lived there before she married at age 25.
Remember's husband, Phineas was the son of William and Sarah (Church) Stewart. William's parents have not been identified. More research is required.
The children of Pat and her first husband, Woodrow, are related to some people through both of their parents. For details see: Fuller and Sweeney Common Ancestors
Second Marriage: Researching the ancestry of my husband was the primary reason for starting my genealogical studies which covers many surnames of interest not mentioned above:
Consider the scope of your name study: I committed early to studies then got attached and ended up wanting more studies than was allowed. So I have one unofficial study. OOPS!
As you can see from the table below, taking on a Name Study for Fuller, James or Weaver would be challenging for just one person, while a Name Study for Christ, Thurber or Trump can be much more reasonable.

The Profile Improvement Project (PIP) is performing its first annual check-in with our project members. Please review the following and let us know if you are content where we have placed you or would like to be more involved.
We are in the process of transitioning to a team structure. There will be three participant PIP Teams to start -- The Maintenance Category Team, the Unknowns Team, and the Biography Team. There is also the Voyage Team which guides new Voyagers. See the Profile Improvement Project Teams for a brief outline of each team.
You're currently identified as a member of the Biography Team Level 1, working on profiles from your own watchlist, from projects in which you are involved, and whatever else you find. Biography Teams Levels 2 and 3 will work on designated profiles for notables (Level 3) and everyday people (Level 2). Please let us know if you would like to help with a higher-level Bio Team or one of the other Teams.
You joined the Project before the Voyage started in late 2018. We would like to invite you to consider a "fast track" Voyage, especially if you would like to work at a higher level on the Biography Team. If you’re interested, choose a profile from your own watchlist that you have completed to the best of your ability and compare it to the Voyage Biography Standards. If your profile is at Level 2 or better, include a link to the profile in your response to this check-in for a “fast track” review.
We would also like to invite you to join the email GoogleGroup and text chat Discord channel for our project. If you request to join our GoogleGroup, please be sure to include your Wiki ID. Neither is required; we also use the Profile_Improvement tag in G2G for Project announcements.
We thank you for all you do to help the Profile Improvement Project and WikiTree. The Project’s mission is to:
We know you’re working on profiles *smile* We would like to hear about successes you’ve had toward the Project’s goals. We would also appreciate any feedback you might have to help us improve the Project. Please share your thoughts in a reply to this comment or privately via private message to either of us.

You have placed me in the level that fits me best. I am content to focus mostly on my watchlist and make an effort to improve them using project standards as a guide.
As for fast track reviews, I would suggest two of my favorite profiles which seem more finished than any others. (Not sure if any profile could ever be finished though: 1. My grandfather, Clyde Thomas Fuller (1890-1957) as there were more news articles about him then I could ever use here. 2. I am the great grand niece of Clara Ann Elizabeth (Fuller) Herr (abt.1854-abt.1935) whose biography was a joy to write. Hope to start improving profiles of her husbands and their families sooner rather than later.
Health issues keep me from WT far too much. My husband has more pressing chores which keeps my computer issues from reaching the top of his to-do list. Therefore I'm not able to participate in either the GoogleGroup or Discord channel.
I saw your note about limited access and just want to make sure you are aware of this discussion. https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/1171638/president-bidens-ancestors-from-sussex-not-huntingdonshire
I've been ill and not on WikiTree much. Not sure how soon I'll be back regular. Trying to catch up a bit from my activity feed. Thank you and all the project members for updating Biden's relatives. Sorry I wasn't able to pitch in. Should Mary (Elkins) Biden (abt.1801-1863) be part of the Project? Her husband, William Biden (abt.1789-1849), is.
Pat
Normally the project only manages 4 generations of ancestors, in this case, because of the issues around "which William Biden", we are actually managing the 5th generation. As there does not seem to be a question about his wife, we decided that the project could forego management of her profile.
Robin
The Ambassadors project has been reorganizing and is looking for those who have a membership at a genealogical society, to help in spreading the word about WikiTree.
We're working on ways to improve how WikiTree connects and interacts with genealogical and local history societies. This is the kind of thing we want to do:
Are you interested in participating in some way? Do you have some ideas to share?
Azure Rae ~ co-Leader of Ambassadors Project
So sorry to hear of your family's health issues. Sending thoughts and prayers your way. Thanks for responding.
There is a FindAGrave template {{FindAGrave|123456}}. 123456 is a dummy number, just replace it with the memorial id.
Let me know if you need further assistance.
Azure Rae
I use the FindAGrave template all the time. Still have to update profiles I did before I started using the template.
I added a subheader under "Research Notes" named, "Ambassadors Project: Link Builders Team". Starting process to join project. I wanted to know if there was a Project sticker I could add within that subheader to highlight linking profile on FindAGrave memorial. Let me know what you think.
My Family Activity Feed is my main source of information as long as I can't get emails on my computer.

I did start a g2g discussion regarding Henry here: https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/1069462/was-henry-amidon-ammidown-phillip-amidown-mehitabell-perry
Maybe if you add Amidon or Perry to your tags you can at least get updates in your Genealogy Feed? (Amidon isn't very active so it shouldn't clutter things up).
edited by M Cole
WikiTree time will be sporadic. Be patient. I'll address any issues as soon as possible.
Will be monitoring my family activity feed. Please comment from profile needing attention. PM (Private message) if issues are for more than one profile. Thank you.
Computer conversion working slower than I thought it would. Limited access to email.
