David Woodbury

Hi Dave , did you receive my email about Rachel Magoun ?

Regards Dawn

Born in 1950, I am a retired Registered Maine Guide living in Lincoln, Maine, son of Victor Woodbury and Dorothy (Miller) Woodbury.

I have inherited stacks of old family documents and photographs, mostly on my father’s side. I consider it my responsibility to make all the connections and add all the results to WikiTree. This is especially thrust upon me because my great-great-grandfather, Andrew Sweet (1837-1892), had only one child and she then had only one child who lived to adulthood, my grandmother Woodbury. So the ancestral records of all the descendants of Andrew Sweet are contained in this one collection.

My daughter, Ruth, and I have traced some lines back many generations. These are recorded in Heredis for Mac. I will add these records to WikiTree one by one as time permits.

Hi again, David,

Congratulations, you have now been a WikiTree member for one month! Here are a few ways to dive in even deeper:

• Read Beyond the Basics of WikiTree, for a guide to topics like Projects, Categories, and Merging.

• Look for projects that need volunteers.

• Check out our blog, a monthly newsletter along with tips, interviews, and guest posts from people in the larger genealogy community.

• Find WikiTree on several Social Media Sites.

Let me know if I can be of help, including with your GEDCOM.

Hi David,

Now that you have had a little time to try WikiTree, there are a few more features you may find useful.

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. Berry Henderson ~ WikiTree Mentor

Hi David,

Thanks for joining WikiTree!

As a mentor I'm here to help. If you have questions or problems with WikiTree, including with your GEDCOM, post a comment on my profile page or send me a private message.

• Here's how to add information.

• Remember to include locations and sources in new profiles whenever possible.

• Our vision is to build a collaborative tree with just one profile per person, so make sure to look for duplicates!

• If you have royal ancestors, contact the EuroAristo Project to see about connecting to pre-existing lines.

Each generation adds new surnames to the hodgepodge of family relations and each generation becomes further separated from the knowledge of the past. I am one of three in the family who have been collaborating to capture relationships and build a reliable record.
