Saw that you posted infomation on Roe family near Winchester Ont. Not sure if you have direct connection - I don't really understand how Wikitree works. I added land record to Robert Roe (Roe-762) profile but was not certain on sources etc so did not want to add more (normally use ancesty.) On Robert Roe profile on my mulloy-cowan tree have his signature on road construction petition dated 1854 - sorry do not know source (was internet) and cannot refind. Am decendant of Geo Mulloy - Mary (Mulloy) Roe's Bros. with one DNA match into Roe decendant Bill Mulloy (Mulloy166 on ancestry)
I have a birth certificate for John Blackman, born Burbage 23 Dec 1852 to William Blackman and Mary (Cox) Blackman. This dated from when I was following the wrong Blackman family!
II also have a marriage certificate for William Blackman o Mary Cox 22 Aug 1846 in Burbage. Would you like them? I can scan.
PS I did lots of BBurbage MIs and transcriptions years ago! Rob [email address removed]
Thanks for taking responsibility for the Orphaned Profiles. This After Adopting Orphans FAQ explains the special attention adopted profiles will sometimes need from their profile managers. One quick way to find the profiles you adopted is by searching your Contributions List for the word "adopted" and "manager." You can find a quick link to your Contributions List in the My WikiTree dropdown menu.
If any of the profiles need GEDCOM cleanup, there is a new tool that can help with the formatting so that you can concentrate on the genealogy. You can read more about it in the WikiTree AGC FAQ.
You might be interested in some of the tips and tricks that we have included in the How-Tos that we share with new members these days. They were created long after you became a member so you never received them.
If you have any questions about how WikiTree works, let me know by using the "reply" link for this comment or by clicking my name to visit my profile. From there you can leave a comment or send a private message.

However I assure you they are the same person.
There may be a discrepancy between the Children, but this is because I simply didn't add Sarah to the new profile because I knew it would add her when they were merged.
Sarah was my grandfather's aunt, and Sarah's children (Blackman) were known in my family.
Harriet Oakleys other daughter, Harriet Fuller (My great grandmother) is even listed as a sister to Sarah Blackman in the 1901 Census. Therefore meaning that Sarah's mother and Harriets mother, who are both listed as Harriet Fuller (Oakley) are the same person.

Ideas on what to include in a profile can be found in Styles and Standards, including some tips on writing biographies.
If you need to describe an event, an heirloom or a location relevant to your research, you may like to learn about Free Space Profiles.
Lastly, sometimes you'll run into unresponsive profile managers. We have a process for resolving those unfortunate situations.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask via my profile page.

Thank you for joining WikiTree. As a WikiTree Mentor I am available to answer any questions or help solve any issues you may be having. How is your experience with Wikitree going? If you have questions regarding Gedcoms, here's the link to the GEDCOM help category: GEDCOMS
Do you have Royal Ancestors? They are already here on Wikitree! Rather than create duplicate profiles for them, please contact the EuroAristo Project to discuss connecting your family line to their profiles. The Help Index is also an important place to find how to do most tasks.
Feel free to ask me via my profile page if you have any questions.
You are now a member of the WikiTree Community. Please note we are trying to build one Collaborative Tree which means one profile per person. It is important to ensure no duplicates are entered as you add any Profiles to WikiTree.
If you need any help getting started check out the help section from the menu, top left, or head over to the G2G forum, you might want to check out the introductory WikiTree video that a member created.
Our Mentor Team are a friendly bunch of volunteers who will be glad to help you with specific problems if you have any. Billy
Good luck growing your branches, and thanks for offering to help with our shared tree :)

A couple suggestions to get you started:
1. Our Honor Code is a very important part of why our community is such a friendly place to grow your family tree so please take some time to read it.
2. Feel free to ask a question at our G2G forum.
3. Our help pages, top right, have all sorts of useful information.
If you would like to contribute, click the volunteer button and leave a comment on your profile public bulletin board to let our greeters know (That is the space above immediately above this message). You should include a little bit about how you plan to contribute to the tree.
