Biography

I Thomas Biddinger was born to Allen and Dolores Biddinger on May 10 1960. I was born in the small village of Commerce Michigan. In 1962 I came down with epilepsy and lived in the hospital for twe consecutive years without discharge. The doctor's had me on 30 pills a day and on the wrong medicine. At one point the doctors had me on 100 milligrams of Dilantin twice a day and 30 milligrams of phenobarbital twice a day with no success. I had went into three different commas and each time was comatose for a week at a time the last time they did not expect me to live. Then they put me in a research for a month run all the tests and use me as a human guinea pigs so to speak and eventually called in a specialist to look over my records and see what can be done. The Specialists took a look at my records and had been doing some research in epilepsy for quite some time and had found out that if I was exposed to a hatd case of the measles that the measles would shock my nervous system like a defibrillator shocks the heart and the medication that they had me on 100 milligrams of Dilantin twice today in the 30 milligrams of phenobarbital twice a day would take effect and it did. I was finally able to be discharged from the hospital and go home and my parents had to monitor my seizure activity I had no more seizure activity after that exposed to the measles and put me back on the original medication Dilantin and phenobarbital. At age eight I went back into the hospital for testing for the epilepsy and they damaged my right ankle with an IV in the hospital the doctors had to do a bone block surgery and later on I had to have total reconstructive foot surgery on my right foot and ankle and have for metal plate put in to stabilize my foot and ankle so I can walk effectively and normally once again. In 89 1990 I went and joined the apostolate for family Consecration and Kenosha Wisconsin and help them set up the pope John Paul the 2nd Holy Holy Family Center in Bloomingdale Ohio. I then moveed back to Michigan for a short time. and then moved to Florida where I became a Benedictine monk St Leo Abbey in st. Leo Florida 4/6 years before leaving the monastery when my mother took ill with a heart attack and had to have open heart surgery then in 2001 my father passed away my mother had recovered and my mother then passed away on January 4th 2006.

Hi again Thomas

We are so happy you decided to upgrade to the Family Member level.

Please visit our tutorial pages to learn how to use WikiTree: How To Use WikiTree. They will save you time, energy, and frustration as you add your family profiles.

Exploring the site is the best way to learn. One way to do that is to check out the drop-down menus on the top right side of your profile page. Finding a known ancestor and collaborating with the profile manager is another great way to start.

Hello Thomas,

Normally, we first Greet our Guests and then send them the How to guide once they upgrade. I sent a How-To message by mistake, rather than our welcome message. Forgive my enthusiasm and let me know if you need any assistance.

Hi again Thomas,

Check out the profile for Biddinger-34, sourced by Bartlett-4316. This is a good example of what we are looking for as far as sources. Let me know what you think!

Hi Thomas

1) for the profile Sapp-687, you will need to merge that with the duplicate. Which profile is the duplicate?

2) For Smeltzer-187 you have 1960 in a name field - please remove that.

Thanks,

Summer

Hi Thomas, I tried to add you to the trusted list of Queen Elizabeth II, but for some reason it didn't work. I'll have to investigate a bit more and get back to you. John

Also, I noticed your comment below about Donald Biddinger whom married Pat Corveth. Do you know what state? I can point you toward a state research site, and/or a WikiTree project that might apply. Check on Family search too, they usually have marriage certificates, birth certificates, census records, and best of all...totally free.

Hi Thomas,

Thanks for getting back to me! I recommend you start by searching on free sites such as Family Search or through a trial run of Ancestry. Sources are of the utmost importance - WikiTree prides itself on being sourced and accurate! :D Here are a few places you can start by looking at, to see how things work. Here is the Styles and Standards page, and there's always the Help page to look up things by topic. And of course, I'm always here to help too. I'll check back in with you in a day or two to see how things are progressing. :D

Hi Thomas,

I'm Summer, and I'll be your mentor to help you through your acclimation to WikiTree. You'll notice I've proposed some merges on a few duplicates. Please complete those merges when you can.

Also, when populating name fields, please put "Mr" or "Mrs" in the prefix fields instead of suffix field; suffixes are reserved for things such as Jr. and Sr.

Sourcing is also very important! Our Honor Code specifies that we must provide sources for our profiles. I've noticed your created profiles do not have sources, so let's try to work on sourcing before creating any additional profiles.

You can contact me privately if you need to discuss anything specific. I look forward to working with you!
