Hi Frances,

Thank you for your commitment to the England Project and its goals in 2023! Together we are making English WikiTree profiles the best they can be!

I'd like to share our end-of-year 2023 Newsletter. You can read it here: England Project Newsletters. We hope you enjoy reading about what we have achieved in 2023!

On behalf of all the England Project Leaders, we wish you a peaceful, productive and enjoyable 2024!

Best wishes,

Joan, England Project Leader

I am not on wikitree much these days (health), but on the odd occasions I get to check out what's up, Frances has added even more contributions on my extended family tree. Thank you so much.

Hello Francis,

You asked me to add Nancy Ann Secor as the wife of Edmund Clay Secor, but you didn't give me her Wikitree ID number. I couldn't find her on Wikitree. Can you please give me more information? Is her profile under her maiden name, as it should be?

Karen

posted by Karen (Rollet) Lorenz
George Henry Taylor (1933-2006) is Nancy's husband. Nancy Ann Secor is the daughter of E Clay Secor - you have her listed in the biography of Edmund Clay Secor (1921-2002):

Spouse and Children Virginia L Secor Wife Female Nancy Taylor Daughter Female Jean Corliss Child Unknown Edmund C Secor III Son Male.

She may not have a profile yet, and I believe she is still alive, since she was born in 1951. Her brother and sister are listed as living and have private profiles.

You are welcome to add Nancy and connect her to Henry. I will orphan Edmund so you can adopt him if you would like to. I would rather not be a manager of another unrelated (to me) unlisted profile.
posted by Karen (Rollet) Lorenz
that's great- I'll do that, thanks
One more item. Can I add you as the manager. for Nancy's daughter Eden Laura Taylor? I adopted her before I found out that she was living.

Hi again Frances,

Thank you for all the work that you have done for the England Project. I do not seem to have had a response from you from the recent England Project check in.

If I do not hear from you within the next 2 weeks I will presume that you wish to leave the project. If you leave us, I hope that you will want to re-join us sometime in the future. You can do this by responding to our G2G post. https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/1516540/is-2023-your-year-to-join-the-england-project

Hi Maddy - I'm floating around, very occasionally popping my head into Discord and keeping an eye on the -thons.

Still working on the Lincolnshire unconnected/unsourceds.

Hi again Frances, thanks for your reply. I’m glad to hear you pop into Discord. If you enjoy the thons, you might like to keep an eye on our project challenge thread on Discord at the start of each month. We appreciate your help and thank you again for everything you do,

Best regards,

Hi Frances, having picked up my family history research again after a gap of nearly twenty years, during which a devastating house fire destroyed 90% of my notes and photographs, I was pleased to see your interest in the KEYWOOD family from Bray, Berkshire.

My research lead me to Edward KAYWOOD / KEYWOOD and Susannah Green my paternal 5th G.Grandparents. ANY information you may have about my/our family would be most welcomed. Steve KEYWOOD.

Hi Cous - please do fill in how you are connected to Edward and Susannah - their details were added by someone else - I wasn't confident enough in connecting to them.
Hi Frances

Thank you for joining the Mighty Oaks for the Connect-a-Thon. The 65 members who joined our teams were awesome. Our two teams added 12,905 profiles over the weekend. The Branches Team came second and the Roots Team came forth in the overall scores. Both teams were also in the top ten in the normalised scores. I hope you enjoyed it and will be joining us in April when we do it all over again.

Joan, Maddy, Janet & Fran.

Hello Frances,

Thanks for the typo fix on a place name in one of my managed profiles (Victoria, Australia) — however, St. Kilda is my preferred usage, and is also the most common one in use today for the Melbourne suburb and the local football club. Despite that, it does not come as an option in the drop down list.

Just thought I should let you know. Have a good festive season, and all the best for 2023.

Christine

I was correcting a typo from KLLDA to KILDA - swapping the L for an I - as I was looking at Hammertons.

it was good fun, couldn't believe that it took 181 profiles before I actually matched a profile already on wikitree
I know I only connected two to the tree, connected branches but no luck with the main tree connection.

Oh well next time :)

Hey Nic - I'm floating around in Lincolnshire - slowly working my way through the unconnecteds. Enjoying the hanging out in Discord and learning lots as I do.

The current project challenge is great.

 

Hi Frances

Thank you for joining the Mighty Oaks for the Clean-A-Thon and congratulations on your work during the CAT what an amazing result for the Mighty Oaks we fixed  32,841 suggestions. 

Altogether the teams fixed a grand total of 233,558 profile suggestions.  We hope you had fun while cleaning the tree. 

For the template to add to your profile go to https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Template:Clean-a-Thon  you will need to amend it to this year. See the Mighty Oaks page

See you later in the year for the Connect-A-Thon

Thank you Frances for the lead and clarification on my 3rd great grandmother's, Lucinda "Lucy" Rouse, last name. Some documents misidentified the last name as "Rouel", but I had a feeling the last name could have been "Rouse" since there was a person living in their household in England with that last name. We'll see where this goes. Thanks again so much.
posted by Raymond Howard 1st
I could not help notice the surname "Rouse". Do you know if this Lucy is related to Sarah Ann Rouse? The only info I have on Sarah is that she was married to George William Flowers (1847-1892) and they had at least six children...
I was connecting - I'll see if I can find it again! The Lucy seems to have a brother Richard, born 1809 in Grantham - so that would make them likely too old to be Sarah Ann's silbings. Lucy hasn't had a profile created yet, but here is her daughter: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Ludlow-996

Hi Frances!

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 England 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).

Hi Beryl,

I don't know the family group at all - was tracking down connectors challenge. I doubt her name is -married - but I can't find a definite source for what it is.
