“My ancestors are so hard to find, they must have been in a witness protection program!” Eventually, all genealogists come to their census. Genealogists: The only people who are excited to read obituaries. “Done! Everything in the family tree has been found and is completely organized” — said no genealogist. Ever. Genealogist: Disturbs the dead and irritates the living. Genealogy is like playing hide and seek: They hide… we seek! “I’m not stuck, I’m ancestrally challenged.” Gene-Allergy: It’s a contagious disease, but we love it. Genealogy: Where the answer to one problem leads to two more! “My husband calls cemeteries ancestor farms.” “I’m more interested in what happened in 1816, than what’s happening today in 2016” Wife to husband: “Never mind the children, do you know where your second great-grandparents are tonight?” Only a genealogist views a step backwards as progress. “I used to have a lot of free time… then I discovered genealogy.” “I collect dead relatives!” “My ancestors did WHAT?” A pack rat is hard to live with, but makes a mighty fine ancestor. “I want to find ALL of them! So far I only have a few thousand.” “I think my ancestors had several “bad heir” days.”

Did you get my private message (email) last week, about how we are 3rd cousins once removed? I would love to hear back from you. If you did not receive my message, it is possibly that you have a spam filter that is diligently protecting you from mail sent via [email address removed] -- if you can whitelist email sources, please whitelist that one -- most email from other WikiTree members will be sent from there.
Last week I saw that you had created a couple of duplicate profiles for some of our relatives.and I proposed some merges. Today I see that you created a second duplicate profile for Sarah Johnson Clarke, the second wife of Thomas Gilbert Clarke. Please attend to your pending merge requests before you create any more profiles -- particularly before you accidentally create any more duplicates. To find your pending merges, go to https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Special:BrowseMatches and click on Pending Merges Waiting for Action by Me.
One of our mentors created a tutorial for the GEDCOMpare process that others found very helpful. I hope that you will too.
