Hi Alan, and welcome to WikiTree! You mentioned you are from England. I wanted to let you know we have a great project that focuses on the UK here called United Kingdom Project It would be a great place for you to get involved once you have settled into WikiTree.

You may find some of your ancestors are already on WikiTree and the people in the United Kingdom Project will be happy to help you in any way they can.

Thank you so much for joining WikiTree. Good luck with your research in 2015.

Hi! More quick tips:

http://www.wikitree.com/quiz/pre_1700 We encourage all to study and take the pre-1700 quiz.

How_to_use_WikiTree#Getting_Started

Free Space pages are wiki pages for supplementing your family history. They can be used to profile anything of significance such as an event, 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.

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

Questions, just ask! Mary~ WikiTree Mentor

Hi Alan,

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.

Good luck growing your branches, and thanks for offering to help with our shared tree :)

For my grandchildren I have created a family tree which goes back many generations in England. I am concerned to confirm the accuracy of my information and am desirous of putting flesh on the bare bones that I have. I look forward to collaborating with the group to the best of my (limited) abilities.

Hi Alan,

 I noticed you uploaded a GEDCOM. Here's a link to a great step-by-step of the process including screenshots that you might find helpful.

The help pages give lots of information about the process, best to start with 'Before you import a GEDCOM'.

Happy Hunting,

Jess
