Hi Christine, Ignore this, it got fixed!

Could you or another member of the Canada Project take a look at a merge I proposed today for 2 people named Mary Ann McSpadden they are Mary Ann McSpadden (1821-) and Mary Ann (McSpadden) Morris (abt.1821-1907)

The profile manager declined the merge less than an hour from the time I proposed the merge. The profile manager for McSpadden-311 has no sources added except an Ancestry Tree and a copied message Ancestry message board post from 2000. He has her birth as Edinburgh, all the sources give her birthplace as Ireland.

I would have added parents and siblings but realised that there is a duplicate.

I'm not sure what to do other than continue to source the profile I created.

Thanks M

I saw where you had entered some information on the Legget family line, and wondered if you could help with my dead end line. My great grandfather was John William Leggett, born 5 September 1855 in Mississippi. He died in Bogota Texas. If you run into any information on his line, would you please contact me? Thank you, Lynn Pedersen.

Hello, Christine,

I just wanted to mention that I was able to solve Secret Santa Wish #45 as the Death Certificate that I ordered on Christmas Eve day from the State of New Jersey arrived yesterday. I updated the case record and notified wisher Julia Frost, but I thought I would let you know directly as this was my first Secret Santa event and I wasn't sure about protocol for "late" solutions!

Cheers,

Kevin Corcoran (Corcoran-2525)

re: Connect-a-thon Canadian Team. thinking I will take part and register today -- and I have read the earlier newsletter as well as yesterday's about the Connect-a-thon, but I have a couple of questions. 1)To be on the Canadian Team do the profiles that I add have to be "Canadian"? I have ancestors who came from the US or the UK or Scotland and settled here, and then some of their descendants went (back) to the United States. Some of these migrators to the US I have already created profiles for, but I have more to do. Would creating profiles for them add to the team's count? 2) I don't have to commit all of my waking time for the three days, do I? I have an event to do to on Saturday (going to meet a 2nd cousin for the first time!) I see David Carlson as a team member and I have been in contact with him a few times in my eleven months on Wikitree. :-)

You're a Star!

My uncle, Edward Moles Giffin from Brockville, ON married my father's sister just after WW2. Her name was Yvonne Gilpin. Edward was born c1918. and died 2002. They had two daughters Susan and Cathy. I am the grandson of Charles Edward Gilpin born in Thornton, Essa Twp. Ontario.

Hey, Christine. I may have the information you were looking for in relation to the Giffin family. My grandmother was Mary Elizabeth Giffin, spouse of the late Whit Giffin. My grandmother was adopted by the McLellan's when she was 3 years old, to my knowledge but kept the Giffin name. I'll be continuing to fill out my tree as the days go on and I get more information from my mother, but so far I think this seems to be a match with what you've listed.

Hi Christine, it has been suggested that I contact you with the following question:-

My great grandmother Emma Jane Davey was born in Ontario in 1874. Her father William Francis davey was over there working on the Great Western Railway. He was an Engineer whcih we think means driver. The returned to England before 1876 when thier son was born. Are there any records pertaining to the railway that I might be able to find? Thanks Alison

your research notes on the profile of Bertram Ian Theobald have triggered an expansion of the tree of Theobald's of Kent England

Thank you

I just wish that the Canadian births and marriages were easier to find

Christine, I was contacted by Billie Keaffaber advising me that you had a question as to whether the Iroquois Confederacy, French and Indian War was being used. There are two sub-projects which both have one profile attached. For more assistance, you should contact either Paula or Terry Wright, co-leaders of the French and Indian War Project.

Christine, Billie Keaffaber told me you had a question about whether the "Iroquois, French and Indian War" category was being used. Currently, there is one profile in that category. This category is a sub-category of the "Iroquois Confederacy, French and Indian War" which is a sub-category of the "Native American Tribes, French and Indian War".

If you have any further questions, please contact [Haining], who is the coordinator of the Categorization Project.

From your friends at the Appreciation Team:

Congrats on the Super Star Badge!

Hi Christine.

I'm watching the video from last night right now. You did a great job presenting information to Ellen, and as I'm watching, you're talking about the research for Tim. You're very well-spoken and put-together. Nice job.

Chris

Not sure if I already thanked you for your Dear contribution. If not, thank you!

Hi, Christine!

Thank you for your participation in October 2020’s Source-a-thon. Your contributions helped us to clear over 57,000 profiles that needed sourcing. This makes our Shared Tree all that much better.

Keep up the great work!

Hi, Christine!

Thank you for looking after the Mighty Maple Leaves pages. Could you help me figure out the chat? I posted an "answer" but I do not see it anywhere. I guess I need to know how the forum works.

Hey Christine,

I remember you volunteered to help translate a cursive document the last time I posted one. Just want to reach out and see if you would be interested in transcribing another.
