Hi Lisa,

Thanks for taking the Pre-1700 Quiz!

Because pre-1700 ancestors are shared by many descendants, working within the projects which coordinate them is essential.

Use the Pre-1700 Projects list to find one which best fits your research focus, whether time period, location, or topic. Read the goals and tasks of the project and join if it is a good fit.

Add the project tag to your Following list to be kept up to date on any activity that occurs for that project.

Can't find what you're looking for? Let me know, and I can make some suggestions! :-)

Hi, I am Dorothy, a WikiTree mentor!! Are you enjoying your time on WikiTree so far?

Now that you have had a little time to try our site, there are a few more features you may find useful:

For instance, ideas on what to include in a profile can be found in Styles and Standards; including some tips on writing biographies

Also a friendly reminder about adding sources and references to your profile. Sources are critically important for genealogy and you will be helping future genealogists by listing where the information you've added came from. This page describes different kinds of sources: http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Sources

If you have any questions, feel free to ask!

Welcome L.,

You are now a confirmed member of WikiTree! Thank you for volunteering.

We are all winners when you bring your experience to WikiTree.

Have fun and ask for help if you need it! WikiTree members are always eager to offer guidance to a fellow genealogist.

If you need additional help, our Mentors Project is a friendly bunch of volunteers who will be glad to assist you with WikiTree-specific problems.

Happy Hunting, Jess

I started in 2000, improving my research habits & sourcing as I go along. I never feel completely done researching anyone - there is always more to learn. I'm always happy to do RAGKs whenever I feel I can be helpful & assist someone in scaling their "brick walls." I often research for friends & in-laws just for the fun of it. I encourage genealogists to record family stories while we can; this is as important as collecting photographs, & often a tidbit from such stories is the very information you need to solve a brick wall. I am delighted to volunteer as a Wiki Genealogist & agree with the Mission & Rules. Ancestry's price gouging, greed, and attempts to corner the market have risen to ridiculous heights & no longer serves the community. Sites like Wikitree are vital to our future.

Welcome to the Wikitree Family, L!

The initial email from us has helpful links that will get you started on WikiTree, which is not like any genealogy site you’ve ever used.

WikiTree is different because our goal is to have one profile per person, and that means we all work together as a BIG collaborative team!

What brings you to WikiTree? Research you’d like to share? Interested in how your family fits into the big tree?

• When you confirm your email address, you’ll see a Volunteer option on your profile page. Click that and leave us a short message about your genealogical interests. A Greeters Project volunteer will be happy to confirm your membership, and you’ll be on your way!

We’re really glad you’re here.
