Hi cousin - First let me thank you for all the help you give to myself and others on this platform. It is a lot of work, and you are greatly appreciated. I can understand how it must be frustrating when us amateurs make changes to the site, but I assure you we are not trying to cause trouble (at least not most of us). I noticed that you are not happy when I used links to my Ancestry tree, and I understand that it is not exactly within WikiTree rules, but I use it primarily as markers to keep from getting lost among the 25K plus profiles I have in my tree. I am currently going back over most of them now, and I will try to delete the links from the profiles you manage. However, if I miss a few, just delete them. However, I would like to leave the Ancestry links in some form or other on the profiles I manage, because it makes it easier for me to reference when somebody has a question. Thanks again and hope all is well for you and yours.

Hello Lise, I noticed you made edits on the profile for https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Levesque-337.

I wanted to make you aware that you should NOT delete, only add. Also, you completely changed the formatting incorrectly. I made the necessary corrections to the profile and added the categories previously listed back to the profile. May I suggest you take the advice of the previous comment.

Lise,

Please take the time to review the help for Biographies. Every profile should have the Biography and Sources sections (identified with the two equal signs). The references tag should immediately follow the Sources heading. On that help page, you will also find a link to Sources that explains how to format sources.

Hello Lise

It was drawn to my attention that you were changing the current last name on this profile https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Ivori-1 to that of her husband. Please note that women kept their own names in French culture, including New France. See https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Project:Quebecois Québécois project page for guidelines on names and location names, which also apply later. Thank you.

Hello Lise, I am Lisa - my mother actually wanted to name me Lise but my father Americanized it. I always regretted that. My godmother is Lise, so I feel we are already connected.

I checked our DNA kits and we share DNA on Ch23, 5,597,613-12,825,823. Cool! I am working on the Acadian section of my tree and am hitting a wall or two. Perhaps you can fill in some blanks?

Thank you for the corrections to Desiree Savoie's information. We knew the name Savoie was French but did not know they came to America from Canada.

I just spent a bit of time reading all the generations and am amazed! I can't thank you enough. I can't wait to show all these to my husband. I never imagined there would still be information dating back to 0300. WOW!

Hi Lise,

Thanks for your message! I recommend the Acadians Project, led by Roland. I'll let him know you're interested!!

Let me know if there's anything else I can do to help. We're glad to have you on board!!

Hi ,

Now that you have had a little time to try WikiTree, there are a few more features you may find useful.

Ideas on what to include in a profile can be found in Styles and Standards, including some tips on writing biographies.

If you need to describe an event, an heirloom or a location relevant to your research, you may like to learn about Free Space Profiles.

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

If you have any questions, feel free to ask via my profile page. Michelle ~ WikiTree Mentor

Lise --

You are now a confirmed member of WikiTree! Thank you for volunteering.

We are delighted that you have joined us. I am sure you can make some great contributions. Please check out the Acadian Project for information on the work that group is doing here.

Have fun and ask for help if you need it! WikiTree members are always eager to offer guidance to a fellow genealogist.

If you need additional help, our Mentors Project is a friendly bunch of volunteers who will be glad to assist you with WikiTree-specific problems.

See you in the branches --

Welcome to WikiTree! The initial email from us has helpful links that will get you started on WikiTree, which is not like any genealogy site you’ve ever used.

WikiTree is different because our goal is to have one profile per person, and that means we all work together as a BIG collaborative team!

What brings you to WikiTree? Do you have research you’d like to share? Are you interested in how your family fits into the big tree? When you confirm your email address, you’ll have an opportunity to volunteer and tell us about your genealogical interests.

Once you volunteer, one of our Greeters will be happy to confirm your membership, and you’ll be on your way!

Welcome to the family! We’re really glad you’re here.
