Thanks for contributing to the 1880 census USBHP page.
Nancy (Cox) Wilson was a New Jerseyan.

The sort problem you noted has been corrected for Cranbury. We will be heading to other counties in the next months. If you have a special county you'd like to see completed, let me know. The rich history of New Jersey African-Americans is a bit easier to research than other states.

In starting a new profile, I rejected a similar one that was already on the site. Can I go back now and insert that rejected profile in my family tree?

I have been adding sources by the year from 1830-1837. When I started on 1838 I found you had had sourced several on the first page. My question is Did you or are you doing the whole year? I will skip to the 1839 year if you are.

Hi,

We hope you can join the MidAtlantic Team for the 2023 Source-a-thon. It will start 8 am EDT on Friday, September 29th and end at 8 am on Monday, October 2nd. The Source-a-thon is different from the Connect-a-thon in that we will be improving existing profiles. To register for the Source-a-thon, please answer this post:

https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/1628429/register-now-for-the-2023-source-a-thon

Also, different is that most of the prizes given out at the hang outs are donated by members so there are a wide variety. If you would like to look at what has been donated so far or to donate a prize yourself:

Thank you for encouraging me to look at the How To Use WikiTree page. I'm one of those people who usually jump in with both feet first and read the instructions later. That was not a good strategy for learning how to navigate WikeTree. The Hot To page has been very helpful.

Hi Nancy, thank you for stickering and improving some old profiles you found for USBH. This helps our project so much! However, we don't use the challenge tracker for these profiles since the goal of the Connecting Challenge is to create brand new profiles attached to existing profiles (similar to the Connect-A-Thon).
