Biography
I was born in Manchester, New Hampshire in 1983. I attended schools in Auburn and Manchester. I attended Lesley College (now Lesley University) and Saint Joseph College (now University of Saint Joseph), attaining a bachelor's degree in science, nutrition.
In 2017, I achieved my goal of proving my patriot lineage and joined the Daughters of the American Revolution. My local chapter at the time was the Jesse Leavenworth in Leavenworth, KS. My friend Alice Hall helped me immensely and I'm forever grateful to her for helping me achieve my goal.
My dad's Coughlan-47 ancestry is exclusively Irish. I've found it difficult to nail down where exactly most of my Irish roots are, due to their very common names. I would love to know more.
My mom's Hartnett-245 ancestry is more American. Her father's side is Irish. Her mother's side is old Vermont families and New Hampshirites; and further back, England and some Canadians.

Please remove the category Pomeranian Voivodeship from https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Kujawski-17 profile. It's a high level category and profiles need to be placed in village categories.
Thanks,

Silas Buss and Hannah Pierce are in my family tree. I'm not comfortable enough with Hannah's info to post it yet. I believe she married Silas in 1770 in Lunenburg Mass and I found a Find-a-grave entry for her in Temple NH, but there are other posts that have her buried in Hadley Mass.
Let me know if you find anything. Thanks Karen

Mary~ Project Coordinator, 1776 Project
I sent you a check-in message over a week ago about the 1776 Project to ask you about your past and continued involvement but have not yet heard back from you. Do you still want to be in the project?
If I don’t hear from you in a week or so, I’ll assume that you’ve moved on to other things, but you’re most welcome to re-join the project at any time.
Looking forward to hearing from you,
Best wishes,
Mary~ Project Coordinator, Membership, 1776 Project

We're doing our semi-annual check-in with members to see if you have been active in the last six months? Please note that it is a requirement for membership in the 1776 Project that you respond to these check-ins.
Please post your reply as a reply to this message on your page, for convenience of the record keeping.
We look forward to hearing from you.

Thank you for contributing to the March 2022 Sourcerers Challenge!
WT Appreciation Team
Have you ever considered participating in one of WikiTree's Connect-A-Thons? It's a great opportunity to add new profiles, whether they are extended family members or someone who fits into of one of your projects. The next one will run from Friday, April 22nd to Monday, April 25th.
If you are interested in participating, you can sign up in the G2G forum registration post (https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/1392037) and add another badge to your collection. I invite you to join the Mid-Atlantic Team since I notice you have roots in New York and Connecticut. You are not limited to adding profiles for only this region, of course. Hope you'll consider joining the fun!
Thank you for contributing to the January 2022 Sourcerers Challenge! As you know, every source added to an unsourced profile improves our One Tree. Thank you for taking time from your own family history to help others.
Nan, WT Appreciation Team
Thanks for the interest in one of the Alamo Defenders.

You have to go slow, and use sources even for the wife, children. Their information is listed in the biography. Save often. Be sure to add sources for the wife and children. You will find the info I found for wife and children in the Biography.
Mary
Please remember that when adding relationships you need to add the sources, especially when working Project managed profiles. Those sources should be primary sources, such as birth/death/marriage records.

I am checking in on behalf of the 1776 Project to announce the new project membership requirements and to verify that you are still interested in being a member of the project. All project members are being asked to join one of the project teams and also to make at least one project contribution every 6 months. We are also asking all project members to join the project's Google Group for project communications.
If you are interested in remaining with the Project, please reply to this comment or send me a message, request to join the Google Group, and let us know what team you would like to participate on.
We really appreciate your contributions on WikiTree, and thank you for all your hard work. If you have any questions, please ask. We would also love to hear any feedback you may have for the project.
If we don't hear back from you we will assume that you no longer wish to participate in the project and if so, you could rejoin at any time as is convenient for you.
We look forward to hearing from you soon!

By the way, I live in Howes Cave NY, work at the Westover ARB in Mass. Retired from the AF (Stewart ANGB) in 1998, still involved as a Instructor pilot on the C5.
This week we have your last stop on the guided tour. Hopefully, you're feeling like a WikiTree pro! If not, you can always revisit the tour stops via the comment boxes on the right side of your profile.
You've covered a lot of ground the past few weeks. Today, we want to give you just a few more tools that can take you even deeper into the WikiTree forest without getting lost: How to Dig a Little Deeper.
Please do not hesitate to ask questions! If the above link does not work from your email, please go to your profile in the public comments and it will work from there.
Thanks, WikiMesssenger Cindy
You may have been hard at work getting connected to family members who are already here and adding those who were missing. You probably have at least a few profiles that you manage now. There's a fast and easy way to access those profiles using the Watchlist. So, this week we're going to look at How to Manage Your Watchlist. Please let one of us know if you have questions! Just click my name above the comment, then ask in the comment section of my page. We want to help!

You've been here for several weeks now! We hope your profiles are starting to come together and that you've enjoyed getting to know all of us a little better.
You're probably getting a good feel for the collaborative nature of WikiTree by now. We know that collaboration isn't always easy. So, we've put together a few pointers that can make working in this type of environment a little easier: How to be a Successful WikiTreer.
As always, your questions are welcome!

There are category links to add to your ancestor's profiles and research links to learn more about your family. The Project is a good way to consolidate the WikiTree ancestors with historic connections to the years of 1773 (Boston Tea Party) to 1789 (ratification of the U.S. Constitution.) All patriot, loyalist, Hessians, French, Native Americans or any other profiles with a connection to these years should be linked to an appropriate category in the Project.
If you havent already, please set your preferences for your Tags Followed to include 1776 Project and any other tag terms that you wish to follow: http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Special:Following
Some categories have a template (SAR) to add at the top of a biography. If not, add a category link by putting the category name such as Template:1776 for those who bore arms in the Revolution and Template:1776 for those who contributed patriotic or civil service. Thank you.
This week, we'd like to show you How to Join in the Community. There's no shortage of opportunities to get involved through social media, our forum, and projects.
I noticed that you're following several surname tags. Check out our One Name Studies Project to see if any have a project you can join. For the revolutionary war patriots check out the Military and War Project For the Irish connection go to: Irish Roots Project Please let us know if you have questions! Just click my name above the comment, then ask in the comment section of my page. We want to help!

You've been here a week now, and we hope you enjoyed your first stop on your guided tour of WikiTree and were able to make good use of the things you learned.
Our next stop will give you some pointers on how to make your profiles stand out: How to Edit a Profile.
As always, your questions are welcome!
