Also, I've restored John as Hugh's son. He's listed in Hugh's will, so I thought the removal must have been an accident.
Thanks! Nan

I have added three sources on the profile. If you send me a private email, I can send you photos of two of them because you might not be able to pull them up.

I am a direct descendant of John Meyrick-4, and do not wish the profile to be changed without a source.
Your work for US Southern Colonies might include 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 or you can post a message on my page here: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Richardson-7161

Just want to let you know that Find a Grave is not used as a source on early profiles. The original gravestone no longer exists and most times the FAG is unsourced. Care must be taken not to duplicate. But thank you for proposing merge on Hutchinson-8209. You can be sure that if your ancestor migrated before 1640, it would be highly unlikely there would not already be a WikiTree profile.

One of our mentors created a tutorial for the GEDCOMpare process that others found very helpful. I hope that you will too.

Thank you for adding your DNA Test information to your profile on WikiTree. Your information will be propagated to the profiles of your parents and your ancestors within about 24 hours of being added. It will also propagate to the profiles of the descendants of your ancestors, so they may see your information under the heading "DNA Connections" just as you can see theirs.
Getting started with DNA outlines how to proceed to use your DNA test information on WikiTree and DNA is a link to a collection of links about WikiTree's many features involving DNA.
The DNA Connections list on your profile will provide a visual way for you to find potential relatives on WikiTree who have also added their DNA test information. Using DNA tools at sites like GEDMatch.com, if you find a relative that matches your DNA sufficiently and you have genealogical sources for the intermediate relationships, you can mark the specific parental relationships back to the most recent ancestor that you both share as "confirmed with DNA." For details, guidance, and examples of how to properly document DNA confirmations, see DNA confirmation.
To find other potential relatives, continue adding sourced profiles for other lines until you can connect on all branches. The more branches you are able to add the greater the likelihood of finding potential cousins to match with. The process of identifying which branch elements of DNA relate to will better enable you to find matches that relate to the particular branches you are researching.
Have fun!

Have you seen the Research option under the name-### menu? Just supply your WikiTree credentials, and search your desired location. I prefer sites like FamilySearch (with a free account). As an example, I used RootsSearch to provide an example for you on Warren Kimsey Morris. Morris-27969
Have you had a chance to review the Sources FAQ? Here are a couple of pages that might be of help https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Project_Reliable_Sources and https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:United_States_Project_Reliable_Sources
Thanks for taking the Pre-1700 Quiz!
Because pre-1700 ancestors are shared by many descendants, working with members of the projects which coordinate them is essential. You can learn more about joining the community in How To #3 and in the Project FAQ.
Use the Pre-1700 Projects list to find one which best fits your research focus. Review the project pages for special guidelines and to learn how to collaborate with the project members.
Let me know if you have trouble finding projects which fit your focus. Click my name, then ask in the comment section of my page.
Remember to cite reliable sources in pre-1700 profiles you manage, or edit. (See:https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Pre-1700_Profiles#Cite_reliable_sources).
