Lizzie was born in Ealing, London, England on 24th May 1982[1]

Lizzie lived with her mother; Iris and father; Chris in London until she was 3 years old. The family with infant child David moved to The Wirral in the North West of England in 1985 where they remained until today.

In 2000 Lizzie graduated from Grammar School and went on to study Human Geography at the University of Newcastle Upon Tyne in the North East of England.

After her graduation in 2003 she returned to the Wirral and joined a graduate training programme in retail management where she still works to this day.

Lizzie's fascination with history has always shown through her reading, choice of films, television etc. However her journey through her own ancestry and further interest in supporting the growth of wikitree and helping others all started with one small tattered photograph found in an old tin box in an attic in 2015. This photograph is of Walter Haworth

Hi Lizzie

We are delighted to announce a new Profile Improvements Team namely the [England Tangled Families Team] which will be formed by merging the Arborists, Gedcoms and Unknown Teams,

As we know tangled families are created from old GEDCOM’s which cover many generations resulting in the need to merge profiles and having to disconnect others together with finding unknown spouses and family members.

The merging of the existing three teams into one exciting new team will hopefully reduce duplications and definitely will increase collaboration between you our experienced and dedicated members.

Team Leader for the England Tangled Families Team will be Fran Weidman who has agreed to manage the team bringing her excellent knowledge and experience from creating and managing the Unknowns Team together with Fran’s five year membership of the England Project.

Currently as a member of one or more of the named teams we are asking you to join our new amalgamated Tangled Families Team and letting us know by contacting Joan Williams or Malc Rowlands through Discord Messaging, England Project Google Group or Private WT Message if you want to join our new team.

Kind regards

Joan and Malc

Hi Lizzie,

I am interested in joining the Disasters Project and doing a project on the wreck of the Faithful Steward that claimed the lives of many of my family (Lees and Elliots. Someone has started a Space page on the wreck. I have written to them and have not gotten a response. I am not sure how to continue at this point. Do I just start the project? Do I start altering the Space page? https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Faithful_Steward_ship

Thank you.

Lizzie or anyone that can help,

I just joined as a member and put in a family tree to the best of my knowledge. I have to explore the site more to understand how it works BUT I have a question. I am trying to trace my great grandfather and great-grandmother that immigrated from Ireland to Buffalo, NY (around 1870-1886). I found their U.S. Census records of 1892, 1900, 1910, 1920 and know when and where they married in 1892, in Niagara Falls, NY. USA. I know their children, one of which is my grandmother that was born in Buffalo, NY in 1900. I also have a hard-to-read copy of my great grandfather's application for citizenship from Erie County Court, Buffalo, NY, that I believe was signed on August t14, 1873. My question is does anyone know of what documentation incoming immigrants, from the time frame of 1860-1880, might have to file while in the United States that would state the address or county of the country they came from, not just the Country? Or does anyone know how I can find my great-grandparent's parents' names in order to backtrack to Ireland? Thank you, Elthea Stiegman

Thank-you Lizzie!:) Hope this finds you happy and in good health. Let us know how you're doing too!:)

Genealogy has been a blessing to distract me from COVID-19 and encourage social distancing in these strange pandemic times. ... Mainly, I've been working on Northumberland & Newcastle (w/ some Yorkshire & co. Durham) families with some overlap and/or [dis-]entanglement from other counties (example: Category: England, Gray Name Study). This included helping out some of the families that have One Name Studies. ... Check out:

To help trace some of the unsourced profiles, I've organized a few pedigrees that are listed on these pages. I found that it speeds up tracking down profiles and tracing allied families.

BTW... I like the teams I'm on and I did consider maybe joining some other counties. Northumberland has a tendency to branch out into Yorkshire, Durham, and Lancashire ... and I think that's probably where I've been the most (along with Lincolnshire [due to the Ogle branch out there] and also Middlesex as we get into the 1700s & 1800s). I wouldn't mind being a part of those teams:)

As for communication ... The Scotland team's use of Discord really impressed me. For some reason I don't seem to make it over to Google Groups that much but Discord is a super-draw!:D ... I love Discord's UI ... It's a lot like another of my favorites -- SLACK -- but it's got the ability for voice, etc., so Discord is a good one to consider.

Lizzie, I am having challenges regarding citing sources. An example is https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Haviland-936 . I keep getting an error message stating that there is an issue with my source citations but I can't figure out how -- it appears to me that my source citation follows the examples listed on the right side of the page.

I appreciate any help you can give me to fix this before I continue making a lot of errors! Thank you so much.

Hi Marcie,

Apologies I missed your message, I will send you a private message which you should receive as an email :-)

Thanks for your lovely message, Lizzie. I'm happy with the teams I am in at present, although I recently joined Cornwall, Gloucestershire and Hampshire/IOW as well, so you might like to add them to column H lol. Thanks for everything you are all doing in England. It is a very special place to be and to work. Susie :-)

Am happy as is. (Been "living" in the GRO and probate search these last couple of weeks or so. Stretched out from where I was previously "comfortable" (place-wise) and am even remembering to look for and add categories!)

Hi Lizzie,

I saw that you're the project coordinator for Project: Titanic.

My great uncle died on the Titanic - he was part of the restaurant crew. (Turvey-1139). Do you have a table for the restaurant crew on your project page?

posted by Andrew Turvey
Well, your profile has helped me solve a minor mystery. Family rumour is that the cricketer Don Bradman is a distant cousin, and yours & mine ... our connection is through the Bradmans. You closer to him than I am, but I am very pleased to have this one finally sorted.
Great interview Lizzie! May you break down all of those brick walls.

I noticed in the Titantic Project that a lot of the 3rd class passengers have information and biographies, but no Volunteer is written down. Does this mean they still need more information?

I've just added a family member John Henry Chapman and his wife to Wikitree, they both died on the Titanic, but I can't find them in the Titanic project. Any comments?

Hi Lizzie,

I am 32 degrees from you. That is an amazing connection. Janine

Hi Lizzie,

I have taken the liberty to create a free-space page for French people aboard the Titanic. I used the information that was on the project page, but this allowed me to get a feel of what is there and what is missing. Please do reach out if you would like to discuss this further.
