Notes

27 September 2021: I'm adding basic information on the siblings of people in my direct line, stats and sources without biographies. I'll happily turn those profiles over to people researching those lines, and I want to give them a blank canvas. Please contact me if you come up on a relative's profile you'd like to adopt.

19 June 2021: I've learned a lot about formatting, mainly by stalking distant relatives' Wiki pages. (Hello and thank you, cousins.) I'll be going back to add clickable links to sources as time allows.

(I'm experimenting with inline reference in my bios as well, but they don't produce the classic citations I prefer.)

Meanwhile, if you want a link to one of my sources, just let me know. Collaborative genealogy is the best genealogy.

19 September 2020: I've adopted a couple of orphaned profiles in the course of my work on WikiTree, neither a direct ancestor of mine. If you want to take over those profiles, hit me up. They are:

Genevra B. (Misemer) Pewitt

Herman M. Pewitt

(Genevra is Herman's mother, married to an uncle of mine several generations back.)

Likewise, let me know if you want to connect lines or even take over a profile if you're actively researching that line. I've already met several lovely distant relatives here that way. Thank you all.

Biography

I was born in 1964 and was raised on a farm in Texas. I was introduced in genealogy in high school -- in case you couldn't guess, high school was a long time ago.

I've spent the last year or so moving all that research into an electronic format that I can then share online. I want the work to live on and grow even if I lose interest or am abducted by aliens at some point.

I live in Oklahoma now with my husband and child, about an hour north of where some of my ancestors lived a century ago before they moved on to Texas. I don't know what that proves, if anything, but it amuses me.

Hi again Dyrinda,

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 get the best results, begin adding sourced profiles for your ancestors until you can connect to ancestors already in WikiTree. If you have exhausted what you know on one line, it can sometimes help to add what you know on another line. 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.

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

I understand your privacy concerns, you can set your privacy level to show only the information you are happy for other people to see, the highest setting for an active WikiTree-er is the red setting, it shows the decade you were born. Due to new privacy laws that came out in May 2018.

https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:GDPR_FAQ

Any profiles you create for people who are still living and are not active on WT will have their privacy level automatically set to "unlisted" status, so the only people who will be able to see their information will be you and anyone you add to a trusted list for that profile. Each profile has their own trusted list.

Have fun and take care

Karen

Hello,

Thanks for the encouragement and the tips. I'm going to fine-tune the profiles added and make sure they conform to standards before adding any one else, so I welcome all feedback. I know I need to fix links in the references so they direct straight to the source. I'll also make sure the privacy settings are set correctly.

Thank you again,

Dyrinda

You are very welcome, Dyrinda, I am glad I could help you. Anytime you need any help, please let me or Pip know

Have fun, and take care

Karen
