About Me
I love quilting, genealogy, books, and solo travel. I love animals and have been a vegetarian since 2000. I'm currently an academic librarian, and my subject areas at work are history and political science.
I co-founded South Texans for Reproductive Justice with my sister. I was a clinic escort in McAllen, Texas through the passage of laws that went all the way to the Supreme Court (Whole Woman's Health v. Hellerstedt).
I participate in BioBuilders on WikiTree and have a tendency to fall down genealogy rabbit holes, so you might come across me if your relative was my grandma's sister's first husband's brother-in-law's great-great-grandpa.

As we start this first Thon of 2022, I just want to say thank you for being a Legacy Heir!!! Have fun with this one and remember, We take it at our own individual pace. If you like to love one profile all weekend, so be it! Make that the most beautiful profile you can. If you choose to do many profiles!!! That is great too!! Just make sure you have at least one good source. Even one contribution makes this amazing tree more beautiful, healthy and strong that it was before that contribution!!
Family, obligations and most importantly, YOU are more important than the thon! We love having you here, but if something comes up, elsewhere, take care of that first. You Rock Legacy Heirs, lets have some fun and connect some profiles!!

WikiTree Appreciation Team
This week we have your last stop on the guided tour. Hopefully, you're feeling like a WikiTree pro!
You've covered a lot of ground the past few weeks. Today, we want to give you just a few more tools that can take you even deeper into the WikiTree forest without getting lost: How to Dig a Little Deeper.
As always, your questions are welcome!
Charlotte
You've probably been hard at work adding family members and getting connected to those that are already here. You should have at least a few profiles that you manage now. So, this week we're going to look at how to work with your Watchlist: How to Manage Your Watchlist.
As always, your questions are welcome!
Mary R
You've been here a week now, and we hope you enjoyed your first stop on your guided tour of WikiTree and were able to make good use of the things you learned.
Our next stop will give you some pointers on how to make your profiles stand out: How to Make the Most of a Profile.
As always, your questions are welcome! Check out our g2g forum at: https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/
Dorothy B.
I'm a member of the Mentor project, and I just wanted to check in and see how things are going. Do you have any questions I can answer?
Ronel
You are now a confirmed member, and you can get started adding your family members. As we've said, WikiTree is quite different from other genealogy sites. So, we've put together a guided tour to help you learn how to use it. Your first stop is How to Start Climbing Our Tree.
Tomorrow, you'll hear from a Mentor who will check in to see how you're doing and answer any questions you might have.
Next week, you'll get another message with your next stop on the guided tour.
You can also meet some of our members by joining in the fun with our Question of the Week in the G2G forum: If you could pick a different time period to live in, what would it be?
Thanks, Cindy
