Hi Joann, This year 27 members signed up to Connect Soldiers during the 2024 January Connect-a-Thon, which resulted in 367 soldiers being connected to family!!!! We beat last years score by 67 soldiers. Thank you for participating :)

Hi, Joann, and thank you so much for all the work you are doing. I was so happy to see some improvements to my great-grandmother (Louisa Andreoli Battistini). It is much appreciated. Her father and uncle appear among your many pieces of research. Much appreciated!

Hi JoAnn! Thanks so much for your work in improving our shared tree!

Hi and thank you for being a member of the Jewish Roots Project! I wanted to let you know about some new things we have going on.

- You can see new tabs at the top of our home page, where you can select topics to view or work on. You can also use our new maintenance categories - feel free to add them to your own family, or any other Jewish Roots profile, or work on the maintenance yourself, such as adding new records to profiles with only a couple sources.-I'm sending an invitation to join GoogleGroups, which we are re-starting this week. We'll probably do most group chat there, but the most important things will be posted on G2G, which you will be notified about if you follow the jewish_roots tag.

-You can also join Wikitree's discord server, where we have a Jewish Roots chat channel.

-If you have ideas or suggestions for the project, feel free to reply here or send me a message.

Thank you! -Elaine, co-leader for Jewish Roots Project

Hello JoAnn,

We are doing our annual check-in for the Profile Improvement Project. Since you have been inactive for greater than six months, we have removed your badge for the project. If you would like to rejoin the project when you return, please visit the project page at https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Project:Profile_Improvement.

Just a Thank You for the work on the Jutras-Mercier family. Attaching sources adds so much to the profiles, and I am glad you have take the time to do so.

Nice to meet you Joann Thank you for handling the Sabatino Tree.

Just a Thank-you for looking at Culp-1338. In 1917 they took a wayward path from where they had been living. Osceola, Saint Clair County, Missouri, United States. James Roland Culp "Roley" and Johanna M. Derksen met in Ida Grove County Iowa. Johanna gave (or had taken from her) 3 children away before this point in time. As her marriage to Roley- a traveling harvest worker in the time period (whose obit was found in my grandmothers adoption papers after death) occurred before {what Gmas birth cert says after the birth in 1916} Roley appears to be the father. Netties prior 2 sons she gave up for adoption are identified as children of a Fred Long of Ida Grove. All of this is recounted in a manuscript of the first son given away, of his discovery and confirmation of parentage by Nettie.

JoAnn, making more than one thousand contributions in September added so much to the breadth and depth of our Shared Tree. The Appreciation Team thanks YOU!

Sparks-2713 and Sparks-2466 represent the same person.

Merger proposed. Thanks.

Hi! Just checked our DNA... no matching segments.

Furthest back I'm really confident of is that Robert Hill is the father of Agnes. That Robert was son of Sion & Elizabeth could use more/better sources.

Congratulations on making more than 100 contributions to WikiTree for the Month of May!

We all appreciate your efforts to make our Shared Tree the best it can be.

Keep up the great work and THANK YOU!

Hello JoAnn,

It has come to my attention recently that you contacted a maternal family member of mine. What information were you looking for. Was it about the Rabbach family, or the Cohen family by any chance or someone else? Maybe we can help each other with ancestral information. respectfully, Duane

JoAnn, do you happen to speak any other languages? Would you check out our languages template and add it to your biography? For example you might add

{{ Languages | en | ro-2 | he-1 }}

to the top of your biography if you speak English natively, intermediate Rumanian and basic Hebrew, or you could use de-4 to specify near-native German or ru-2 for intermediate Russian, and so forth up to ten languages.

It really helps to know who speaks all the different languages used on WikiTree! If there is a language you speak that is missing from our categories, I would be happy to add it. If you only speak English, you're very welcome to use this text to make that clear:

{{ Languages | en }}

Thanks,

Karen
