Matilda's maiden name was Fox, as per the sources on her profile

Could you please amend her Last Name at Birth or add me to her Trusted List so I can make the change myself.

Thanks Steve

Thanks for self-certifying for the Pre-1700 badge! Collaboration with Pre-1700 Project members is essential for those wishing to edit Pre-1700 profiles. Collaboration is essential because those ancestors are usually shared by many descendants.

It looks like the Canada Project would be a good fit based on your branch of WikiTree. Review the project page to learn about resources and guidelines as well as how to collaborate with the project members.

Do you have any questions? Let me know. I'm happy to help! :-)

Remember to cite reliable sources in pre-1700 profiles you manage, or edit. (See: Pre-1700 Reliable Sources).

This is Cheryl again. I just wanted you to know that I added the father of Jessie Muma Adams, Samuel Pierce Adams. If you would like to take over that profile, please let me know. All sources are included. Have a wonderful Labor Day!

I have added two profiles to your family. George Dwight Muma and his wife, Gladys May Lee Muma. You already manage George's father, and I was wondering if you were interested in taking over these two profiles as well. I have already added all of the sources.

Just let me know what you think, Keith.

Thank you.

How are you? I'm David a WikiTree Mentor. Thanks for adding profiles to WikiTree. There are reasons behind the eighth point in our Honor Code: "We cite sources. Without sources we can't objectively resolve conflicting information." A source provides a way to find out more about the person. Showing sources reduces confusion and duplicates.

Here is what our Sources help page says. It has lots of ideas: http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Sources

The Sources Style Guide shows how to enter sources in the biography.

A free and very good website to find sources with a source citation for your family/ancestors is Family Search.

Please make sure to look for duplicates on WikiTree before adding a profile. Having dates and locations attached to every person assists in our mission as well - if you have pre-1700's ancestors to add please read our Pre-1700 profiles info.

And I'm here to help too, just ask!
