Biography

I grew up in the Canadian Maritime provinces (New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island), and three of my four grandparents have their roots there as well, with English (and some Scottish) ancestors. My paternal grandfather came to Canada from Bermuda, also with English ancestors. My roots are so English, I even have an ancestor named English.

Here are some of the names I'm researching: Allen [New Brunswick], Andrews [Devon], Beckwith [New Brunswick], Cooper [Bermuda], Crawford [New Brunswick], Easton [Scotland, New Brunswick], English [New Brunswick], Fillmore [New Brunswick], Finney [New Brunswick], Hicks [New Brunswick], Ingham [Bermuda], Johnson [New Brunswick], Kirkland [New Brunswick], Lockhart [New Brunswick], Masters [Bermuda], McGary, Moore [Bermuda], Morris [New Brunswick], Newbold [Bermuda], Prowse [Prince Edward Island, Devon], Richardson [New Brunswick], Rider [Devon], Scott [New Brunswick], Sharpe [New Brunswick], Taylor [New Brunswick], Weeks, Wheaton [New Brunswick], White [Bermuda], Whitter [Bermuda], Willis [Prince Edward Island], Young [Bermuda]

Leanne, I assume that you were responsible for "Welcome to WikiTree Series" on the Wikitree Youtube channel. You asked for suggestions for other topics that need covering in your admirably brief YouTube format. Two ideas came to me that seem worth considering:

1. The use of GEDCOMpare and how it should be used to update the WikiTree profiles.

2. How the 'One World Tree' works and how to make a connection and trace connections.

Hi, Leanne This question goes back to May 2016. How was the difference of opinion as to the parents of Susannah (Coates) Dixon (COATES-432) resolved? Im guessing one set of parents was Richard and Mary Coat(e)s and the other set was John and Catharine Elizabeth (Thornhill) Coates as shown now. Background: Susannah Coates who married Charles Dixon, and Isabella Coates (COATES-283) who married John Trenholm, seemed to be related to each other, leading to speculation they were sisters. Therefore when some Yorkshire records seemed to show Isabella was the daughter of Richard and Mary Coat(e)s, it was assumed that yhey were probably also Susannahs parents. However additional Yorkshire records were found which suggested Susannahs parents may have been John and Catharine Elizabeth (Thornhill) Coates. I would certainly love to learn how it was decided to go with John and Catharine Elizabeth. Although they seemed to have the best argument, I did not personally find it convincing enough to be considered decisive of the issue.
