Hi Mary,

This is a check-in message to all of our members of the Louisiana Project. It has been quite a while since we have contacted the members on our list; are  you still interested in being a member of the project? We have some great plans for the next year and would love to have you participate.

Please reply to this message to let us know if you plan to remain a member or if you no longer wish to be a member.

Thanks,

Ginny Fields, Co-Leader of the Louisiana Project

Thank you for working alongside Team Roses in the April Connect-A-Thon. Together we added 2,502 new profiles to the Tree! No doubt about it, we rock!

Registration for the August WikiGames has begun early. For this event, a team will be chosen for you. https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/1738020/have-you-registered-for-our-2024-wikigames-yet

Thank you for joining Team Roses for the January Connect A Thon and helping us create a total of 3,457 profiles!

The April Connect A Thon sign up has already arrived. Team Roses has its own sign up post here. I hope to see you there!

Thank you so much for your help with my great-grandfather. This ia a miraculous breakthrough. The family has been looking for his connection back to Germany for years. In September, I discovered the ship he arrived on to New York from Germany. This a a fanctastic breakthrough. I can't thank you enought.

Thank you for joining in the fun this month and helping Team Roses source 2993 profiles! There was a lot of great clean up that happened too including merges and last names and relationships corrected. We hope you can join us for the Connect-A-Thon January 19-22, 2024.

Thank you for participating with Team Roses for the July Connect A Thon. Together we created 3323 new profiles. We rock!

Believe it or not the Source A Thon is just around the corner. Look for sign ups to happen in a couple of weeks.

Emma

Dear Mary,

since I didn’t see any reaction from your side about the check-in message from May, I assume you don’t want to remain a project member. If I don’t hear from you within the next 14 days, I will then remove your Germany Project badge. If you do not wish for that to happen, please reply to the check-in message below or send me a direct message.

If this message finds you too late, feel free to re-request the badge by replying to our G2G join post.

Kind regards from Black Forest

Dear Mary,

I've enlisted Category: Hatzenbühl, Kurpfalz for renaming to Category:Hatzenbühl, Rheinland-Pfalz according to Space:Germany Project Resources#Location Categories and hope this is ok for you.

Kind regards from Black Forest

Mary, thank you for joining in the fun with Team Roses during the April Connect-A-Thon and helping us create 3,911 profiles together. I know the challenge helped push USBH Project over 200k profiles this month! Look for dates for the July Connect-A-Thon coming soon.

Dear Germany Project member,

it's annual check-in time 2023. If you still wish to remain a member of the Germany Project, please reply to this post, by stating this intention. If we don’t hear from you in the next 30 days, your membership badge will be removed. In this case please don't be offended ... you're welcome to rejoin at any time. Please also note, that in order to receive help, with researching your German ancestors, membership is not mandatory. Just ask your questions in the G2G forum and tag them with Germany in order for knowledgeable people to see them.

If you wish to remain a member, we would like to learn more about your perception of the Germany Project in order to achieve a future development according to our members needs and wishes. For this, we created a survey, which we kindly ask you to fill-in.

In case you want to communicate, discuss and receive help about WikiTree in German, you might want to check out the WikiTree category at Compgen’s Discourse as well as the German Discord server Ahnenforschung.

Of course there’s still the official WikiTree Discord server, where we usually talk English. Feel free to learn more about Discord and the server at Help:Discord.

Kind regards from Black Forest

It's time for the One Place Studies Project Check-In!

We've put together a survey for you to fill out to check in with you, it will only take a moment as there are only a few questions. Filling out the survey lets us know you are still interested in coordinating your study and provides an opportunity for you to share any suggestions you may have for the project.

• https://forms.gle/FVwokwa4uNoVgtnJA

If you have decided to step away from your study, please reply to this comment to that effect.

Mary,

A very late thank you for participating with Team Roses during the January Connect-A-Thon. Together we added 4320 new profiles! That’s amazing! Look for information about an April Connect-A-Thon.

Emma

Mary, I'm so glad you joined Team Roses for sourcing fun and helped us source 4282 profiles. We took 2nd place by average score! Our next exciting event will likely be a Connect-A-Thon in January. Keep an eye out for announcements.

Emma

Mary, Thanks for joining Team Roses and helping us create 5730 new profiles during the Connect-A-Thon. We always do amazing things together!

Emma

I appreciate you looking at Abner Erwin's profile (Irwin-5279), but I don't think he connects to your Erwins. This Abner was born in Floyd County, Georgia (northwest of Atlanta, Georgia) with no known Louisiana connection. It looks like the other children of Isaac and Winifred were all born in Louisiana. So I'm going to disconnect Abner from the family, and you'll have to make a new Abner. Please let me know if you disagree or have more information.

Mary, Thank you so much for teaming up with Team Roses for the Connect-A-Thon and helping us to create 5465 new profiles! You blew me away as always!

Emma

So glad you were able to join the Roses for this year's SAT. It was great fun as always. Thank you for your incredible contributions to the Tree. You were on fire last month!!

Emma <3

I've added the German Roots sticker to your Eichenlaub-104 profile, as well as the Rhineland-Palatinate category. I will get the German Roots Project added as a co-manager, so you shouldn't need formal protection. You can add the sticker and category to any other related profiles, if you like.

Let me know if you have any problems or questions. Good Luck!

Mary you won a prize! gotta go claim it

Hi Mary,

I’m working with Eowyn to check-in with everyone holding the Project Coordinator badge to make sure we have the most up-to-date information. As a Project Coordinator badge holder, please can you let me know which project(s) you are currently coordinating and if you have a specific role as coordinator in those projects?

Many thanks,

Susie

Hi Mary,

Could you please look at Gamelin-2 where on 9 Feb 2018 you wrote a very nice, well sourced Marriage heading in bio. See Cindy's comment on one of your references. Thank you!
