Hi!

Just checking in with a few quick tips:

Free Space pages are wiki pages for supplementing your family history. They can be used to profile anything of significance such as a special pet, a meaningful event, a school you attended, a family heirloom .... They're "anything pages".

Not sure what to include in a profile? Check out our Biography Ideas and Styles and Standards help pages.

Lastly, sometimes you'll run into unresponsive profile managers. We have a process for resolving those unfortunate situations.

If you have any questions, please ask!

Yesterday was a travel day, and I am now in Salt Lake City being introduced to The Library by my half-sister! I will definitely follow Paula's advice when I have a chance :-)

Hi Jan,

Did that work for you? Need anything else?

Paula

I have double checked with admin to make certain and this is the ONLY situation in which it is okay for you to go ahead and make a duplicate of you mother and siblings. Then propose a merge with the existing ones. Let me know it you need help. Thank you for your concern over our rules against duplicates!!

Hi!

Thanks for joining us, and I hope you are able to connect with the other people quickly and get things corrected - we're a friendly community here so there shouldn't be any problems.

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.

My half-sister, Lou Daly is encouraging me to try this out - she is the avid genealogist in our family. I googled my mother, and found this listing, where my mother's married name is spelled incorrectly by the original poster (someone I don't know!) and my first name is also incorrectly spelled (I'm Janis Augustin, not Janice - my siblings are all listed correctly). I see that my half-sister has also contributed. I am joining her in Salt Lake City later this week for a few introductory days at "The Library".
