It’s time for our annual Ireland Project check-in! Please respond within the next two weeks to let me know:
If you are happy with the team you’re on or if you’d like to make a change. It is now required that all members with an Ireland project badge work on at least one of the project’s team(s), so if you’ve not yet signed up please do so in your reply to this check-in.
What you think the project is doing well, and what (if any) changes you would like to see us make? Are there any teams you would like to become more active in?
Would you be interested in helping to work on an Ireland Project newsletter?
Please give us some feedback on the use of google group and discord. Do you use one or both of these? If you don’t use either of them, what is the best way for us to ensure you receive project communications? If you would like to join us on either one, just let us know in your response and we will get you signed up.
Please respond to this message by posting a reply below or sending me a private message on WikiTree. If we don’t hear from you within two weeks, we will assume you are no longer interested in participating in the Ireland Project, and your badge will be removed. If you wish to reapply for membership later, we will be happy to have you back. Many thanks, and I look forward to hearing from you!
My West line from Matthew goes through Shrewsbury, New Jersey and is established. This West line comes to me by the marriage of Margaret West to Philip Edwards (through my Paternal Grandmother). My direct Paternal West line comes through Richard West through Greenwich, New Jersey. I am FTDNA tested to the Y-111 level. Thus far have little DNA direct shown Cousins. Both West lines have yet to be locked down to the immigrant individual beyond a shadow of doubt.
I would like to join the "Thayer One Name Study." John Thayer (1610-1610) is my 8th Great Grand Nephew. John's mother was Ursula (Dimery) Thayer (1568-1627). Ursula is my ninth Great Grandmother.
Thanks very much for your consideration.

Just join this site so I'm hoping I am proceeding correctly. I saw your reference to Sereno Dwight, son of Elizabeth Wheelock. This is my family line. Is this your direct line? Have you found anything in your searches that possibly ties this family to Capt. Sml Wheelock and Hannah Amidon of Tyringham MA?
Thanks for contributing to Puritan Great Migration profiles over the last six months. Every little bit helps, so please keep those edits coming!
Like all WikiTree projects we check in with team members twice per year and it's that time again. Please respond within the next two weeks to let me know:
If you'd like to continue as a PGM project team member
If you're happy with the team you're on (Research and/or Profile Improvement) or if you'd like to make a change
Optionally, what you like since the reboot back in May or what you think could be improved. This could be something about Discord, or Google Groups, or managed profile spreadsheets, or challenge participation or really anything. If you like everything the way it is, you can let me know that too :)
If you'd like to tell me about a particular project or family you're working on, I'd love to hear about that as well.
Please respond to this message by posting a reply below or sending me a private message on WikiTree. I look forward to hearing from you.
just some information on the relationships of Snows, Shaws, Aldens and others. Joseph Snow 1664-1753 m. Hopestill Alden 1671-1753, two of children were James Snow 1693-1749 m. Ruth Shaw, his brother my ancestor Isaac Snow 1700-1737 m. Hannah Shaw 1704-1762
Thanks for adding the Anderson Directory info to Edward Clark’s profile. However I think the third entry might be for a different Edward. This one showed up in Portsmouth in 1657. I suppose he could have gone from his original place to Portsmouth though...
I will check out the sources. I have seen the GDMNH one before and it goes along with the Torrey info
I am confused. I see and understand you have rejected a proposed merger of [Fits-Raandolph 42] and [Randolphs 1621]. I am naive - but I don't see the reason for the rejection.
Also, in the table below about matches it doesn't show any matches at all.
Jim Vincent
Jim, I don’t see the table you’re referring to...my recollection is that it was an unmerged match that I removed so I could then propose an actual merge.
Jim: I found the match you were talking about. I did reject it. One was for a PGM profile, the other was for a Guest Member. But that information wouldn't have shown up in the email.
Thank you for your efforts with Holly-953. It was my mistake to even create this non-person. I just posted as complete an explanation as I can onto her page (Holly-953)
You added PPP to Unknown-471285 so I'm getting complaints that it's not set up correctly. I've never found a solution to this, other than to attempt removal of PPP in those cases where the project disowns it, or once when a project was willing to say how it should be set up.
Hi Tim, I didn’t add PPP to the profile. I suggest that you post a comment on that profile explaining the specific complaint. It seems to be set up correctly.
Thanks for all the cleanup you've recently been doing due to duplicates created by others and parental mis attachments by others. I'm scanning the PGM feed and you're doing a lot to help. Thank you!
James Appleby (Appleby-206) was created in April 2012, not very recent!! Although I have been going through my watchlist and adding missing bios.
The later James, who I checked out when I edited this James, has a wife in New Jersey, who probably needs detachment.
I found births for several more Appleby children, but those records, don't necessarily link to James and Dorcas. I think the later ones, might appear in his will, which I cannot find any access to.
Thanks for pointing out the problems with the profile of Marjorie Robinson-28813. I am attempting to contact those who claim to be her direct descendants in an effort to elicit evidence proving her dob, parents, etc. Are you connected to these Robinson's?
As to your statement, "Let me know if there are any objections to disconnecting," the answer is emphatically YES, I OBJECT to any disconnections without an exhaustive investigation and a reconnection to new parents with evidence provided. To do otherwise relegates the profile to a state of limbo where they may never be seen again. The solution is not to disconnect them but to find evidence supporting who their parents are.

Hi I think the date of death on here is actually from Susanna Breck wife of JOHN Breck, not Edward. Susanna is mentioned in Edward's probate file, and she later remarried to Daniel Loring.
You have better information than I. I have deleted myself as profile manager. She is looking for a new caretaker...

I think this orphaned profile is PGM eligible though not in Anderson Luke Potter. He was made Freeman in Concord 13 Mar 1638/39 so that places him in New England by 1638. (https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=coo1.ark:/13960/t75t46t47&view=1up&seq=31&q1=Luke%20Potter)
There has been activity on the profile during the latter part of 2020 so unless it was a very recent orphan, I'm surprised it wasn't adopted.

And I see I mistyped the names – and in fact I can’t even find the people I cited. I must have been dreaming. And I am a bad typist. Jim Vincent
Thank you again, and I apologize again.
Thanks,
Congrats on the Super Star Badge!
Keep pruning!
