Hi Janice

Congratulations on coming back to WikiTree and re-certifying to work on pre-1700 profiles!

It’s very important to read and understand the Help:Pre-1700 Profiles page. These profiles for deep ancestors are shared by many, and collaborating on them works best if we all follow the guidelines in the certification quiz.

Primary sources should always be added to pre-1700 profiles at the time they are created. If you don't have a source for a pre-1700 profile, it would be best to ask for help in the G2G forum before creating the profile.

I had an original account but can no longer log in, so I am starting over. I wish there was a way to merge this new account with my former one, as I had an extensive tree created and several badges and conversations with other genealogists. I don't know why my former log in no longer lets me into this former account

Hi, Janice, do you have the Wiki ID for your original account?
posted on Cannon-7266 (merged) by Laura DeSpain
No, just Janice Cannon Witt created my 2x great grandmother's profile on June 22, 2018, so I had that account 4 years ago...it's Ginn-652 that I created. Upon getting on tonight, it says many of my ancestors are orphaned accounts! I guess I was eliminated? it's really weird, and kind of a sad feeling to see my ancestors orphaned when I had put their profiles in my tree. I am currently adopting them.

I believe that I found it. I will check on it for you. It may take a couple of days. I will get back to you as soon as I am able to so that we can get them merged. :-)

Thank you! I have been trying to rebuild my tree by adopting my ancestor's profiles!

Hi Janice,

We are so happy you decided to upgrade to the Family Member level.

Please visit our tutorial pages to learn how to use WikiTree: How To Use WikiTree. They will save you time, energy, and frustration as you add your family profiles.

Exploring the site is the best way to learn. One way to do that is to check out the drop-down menus on the top right side of your profile page. Finding a known ancestor and collaborating with the profile manager is another great way to start.

Questions? You can always use the G2G link in the Help Menu to find answers.

Hello, Jan,

Thanks for taking the Pre-1700 Quiz!

Because pre-1700 ancestors are shared by many descendants, working within the projects which coordinate them is essential. You can learn more about joining the community in How To #3 and in the Project FAQ.

Use the Pre-1700 Projects list to find one which best fits your research focus, whether time period, location, or special event. Read the goals and tasks of the project and join if it is a good fit.

Let me know if you have trouble finding projects which fit your focus. Click my name, then ask in the comment section of my page.

I am descendant of Gregorius Frey b. 1610 ancestor of Johann Valentine Frey b. 1721. DNA of male cousin shows that our great grandfather is direct line. Mary Ann Fry, mother of James Robert Fry, conceived child unknown Fry cousin, after divorcing Charles Fausel 3 years before conception of great grandfather.

Hi Jan,

I spotted your note on Johann Valentine Frey's profile.

It doesn't appear that the Frey/Fry profiles in your tree connect to Valentine and his immediate descendants.

You need to be connected for your gedmatch to show,

Hello, thank you for your comment. My father and mother are both descendants of Johann Valentine Frey. Do I just add people to my tree to connect?
posted by Janice (Cannon) Witt
That's right Jan.

I see that now your paternal line is connected to Johann Valentine Frey and your gedmatch/DNA does show on his profile. My goodness, you have a lot of cousins on there!
