Also, please review our Reliable (and Unreliable) Sources for the Appalachia Project to help with sourcing our Profiles as you add or come across them. WikiTree requires valid sources on all Profiles and our Project has certain requirements for sources. Check the Appalachia Stickers Page for tips on adding stickers to profiles. In fact, you can add a team sticker to your own page!
I am always available for any questions or help. Thanks for joining the team.

I’m conducting the 6-month check in for the US Black Heritage Project. Because we are growing so fast, it’s not always possible for me to see what everyone’s working on.
I’d love to hear what you’ve been working on and if you are still happy being a part of the Profile Improvement team. Members can change teams at any time.
Emma
I am sorry for the delay in my response. I am still wanting to be part of the Profile Improvement Team. I have been editing some of the profiles I manage and adding profiles as much as my limited time allows.
I also started a Free Space Page for the landmark court case in Tennessee Ford vs Ford a case that went to the Tennessee Supreme Court when Lloyd Ford's white sons contested his will freeing his slaves and leaving the farm to the slaves instead of the sons. My aim is to work on this page a bit at a time to add transcripts and other information.
This is the time for the semi-annual check in with members of the US Southern Colonies Project. Have you been active during the last six months? Note that it is a requirement to respond to the US Southern Colonies Check-ins. Please respond to this message by clicking the reply button below this message, to post your answer. I look forward to hearing from you..
Many thanks,
Mary~ Project Coordinator, Membership, US Southern Colonies

Sorry for the delay, I didn't realize it had been 9 days since you posted. I have considered carefully my time limits and ability to contribute to the project. I have not been able to contribute much if at all directly to the project in the last six months, and do not anticipate being able to in the near future.
I am still interested in the project as almost all of my ancestral lines go back to Southern Colonists, however, that is not reason enough to be in the project. I believe right now due to my time constraints and work commitments it is best for me and the project if I step down as Leader of the Data Doctor Team and step away from the project.
I anticipate re-joining when I have more time to devote to the goals of the project.
Thanks, Emily
Mary
Welcome to WikiTree. I am glad to meet you. I have been trying to work on Archie and his family when time permits.
I am not a mentor or greeter, but would be glad to attempt to answer any questions you might have. My free time (WikiTree time) has been curtailed a bit lately, so I might not respond right away.
Emily
P Kreutzer, US Civil War Between the States Project Leader.
Thanks for the check-in. I am still interested in being a member of the project. I started putting in profiles of Confederate Veterans buried in some of the cemeteries I have visited in the Bluff City (formerly Union, then Zollicoffer, then Union again), Tennessee area. I didn't get very far last year, but I am determined to continue working on those profiles and getting them connected to the global tree.
At the moment, I don't have any suggestions.
Thanks for all you do, Emily
I sent you a check-in message a week -10 days ago about the US Southern Colonies Project to ask you about your continued involvement but have not yet heard back from you. Do you still want to be in the project?
If I don’t hear from you by the same time next week I’ll assume that you’ve moved on to other things. After that time, the badge will be removed. Please remember you’re most welcome to re-join the project at any time.
Hoping to hear from you,
Best wishes,
Mary, Membership Coordinator, US Southern Colonies Project
Sorry for the delay - didn't realize it had been over a week since the first message. I have been considering my role with the Southern Colonies Project, For various reasons, I have not been able to be as active on WikiTree as a whole in the last two years. I have attempted to continue to be at least minimally active in the project and stay as a member of the US Southern Colonies Project with the same teams at this time.
Thanks for following up.
Emily
Thank you for the reply to the Check-in. I think I am reading that you have been slightly Active. Thus I will mark you as slightly Active. From your contributions, most of the activity are the 1900's and 1800's.
My advice to you is to try to find the next generation, to push your activity into before 1776 for the Southern Colonies. I did find this contribution of yours: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Holland-1168.
Here is hoping that you have more activity in Southern Colonies this winter and spring.
Thanks.
Mary Richardson, Project Coordinator, US SoCOL membership
This is the semi-annual polling for the US Southern Colonies Project. This check-in with members is to see if you have been active in the last six months in this project?
Please note that it is a requirement for membership in the US Southern Colonies Project that you respond to these check-ins.
I look forward to hearing from you.. Many thanks,
Mary, Project Coordinator, - Membership US Southern Colonies Project

Thanks for your contributions in 2021! Emma
On behalf of the US Southern Colonies Project Leaders, I am doing a check-in with members to see if you were Active in the US_Southern_Colonies (US SoCOL) in the last two months. (If you do not know which team you are on, then contact me for clarification)
Examples of activity for Southern Colonies might be Teams, Bio Builders, Quality Assurance, Sourcing, Profiles, Stickers for Southern Colonies, Categories for Southern Colonies, Managed Profiles, PPP profiles, Arborists, Data Doctors for Southern Colonies
Please notify me of this activity by clicking reply or you can post a message on my page here: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Richardson-7161
Thanks for your help.

Thank you for joining the March challenge.
Emma
Thank you for your participation in October 2020’s Source-a-thon. Your contributions helped us to clear over 57,000 profiles that needed sourcing. This makes our Shared Tree all that much better.
Keep up the great work!
Pippin Sheppard WikiTree’s Appreciation Team
Thanks for all the work you accomplished during our Connect-A-Thon 2020. It is amazing how many more profiles were created and added to our Shared Tree. You have every right to be pleased with your efforts!
Kind regards,
Pippin Sheppard ~ WikiTree’s Appreciation Team
I tried to work Source challenges on the Tennessee team but I would get messages in the middle telling me to stop working on northeastern stuff. I don't like letting my NEHGS membership go to waste. I don't have that problem signing up as Noreaster. Thanks, Tim
Hello to a displaced Yankee living in Tennessee from a displaced Tennessean living in Massachusetts! I have landed on the Tree Nuts team - on the challenges I tend to range around wherever the profiles take me.
My mother-in-law was descended from some of the Cheever family from Lynn so I had adopted a few of the Cheever orphans a bit ago. I still need to add to her tree on here - I only have that line back to Sarah Cheever & Robert Moon.
Emily
As you may have seen, we have been doing some restructuring in the US Southern Colonies Project and are now organising ourselves into different teams. We have also changed the criteria for membership. Please have a look at the new project pages, and let me know whether you would like to remain in the project and, if so, which team(s) you would like to be in.
Please can you also send me your e-mail address. I can then make sure you are introduced to your Team Leaders and are in the Google Group.
Please note that it is a requirement for membership in the US Southern Colonies Project that you respond to these check-ins. We’re really excited for the future of the project and hope that you decide to be a part of it with us moving forwards.
Many thanks,
Susie, US Southern Colonies Project Co-Leader
Thanks for bringing my dad's profile up to par. I'll try to follow your lead as I do others.

The Global Cemeteries Project is currently undergoing our member check-in and wanted to verify that you are still active and interested in being a member of the project. Are you currently assigned to or working with one of our Cemetery Teams? If not, is there a particular Team or area you are interested in participating with? I would be delighted to help you get setup in one or more of our collaborative teams!
We use Google Groups for internal project collaboration, so if you are not yet setup for access feel free to submit a join request and we will get that approved as quick as possible. We also ask that members check their follwed tags to make sure you are following the correct project tag (CEMETERIES) so you don't miss any disucssions in G2G.
Last, but not least, we would like to thank you for all of your contributions to WikiTree and let you konw that any ideas or suggestions for improvement you may have for the Global Cemeteries Project would greatly appreciated!
I look forward to hearing form you soon!
Steve ~Global Cemeteries Project Leader
Still interested in the project. I have a bunch of photos I need to upload for cemeteries in Tennessee. I am currently on teams for Massachusetts, Tennessee and Connecticut. Haven't been very active lately, but hope to be more active in the next few months.
Emily
