Hi Richard!

I see you've been on WikiTree for about a week now. How is it going so far? Was the first page of the New Member How-Tos helpful or did it leave you with questions? It has confused the best of us at times!

If you have any problems or questions click my name above, then ask in the comment section of my page or send me a private message. Just know that anything you ask, I probably asked the same question in the beginning.
