Wikitree Me
- Go Legacy Heirs!
I began my adventure on WikiTree as a way of sharing some of the wonderful old photographs we have with relatives. Since then I've become hooked on looking for sources for every bit of information. I enjoy sorting out family members who were known to me by what turns out to be their middle names. And I have had more than one chuckle over old newspaper articles: Henry's birthday party, great grandfather Ehrman's return trip to Switzerland, Esther's stolen bulls being found, and Edna becoming honorary Remember When queen right before her death. I still have not found an article about the famous Clydesdale stallion great grandfather Ehrman brought back from Germany.
Some of my favorites on Wikitree
| Name | Birth | Origins | Information | |
| C.S. Lewis | 1898 | Ireland | Author "Mere Christianity," Chronicles of Narnia" and so much more | |
| Henry Wadsworth Longfellow | 1807 | Maine | Wrote "I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day," "Paul Revere's Ride" and many more | |
| JRR Tolkien | 1892 | South Africa | "The Hobbit." "The Lord of the Ring" and more |
Wikitree favorites that I manage
| Name | Birth | Origins | Information | |
| Дмитрий Михайлович | 1299 | Russia | Prince of Tver, Grand Prince of Vladimir | |
| Louis-Simon Braille | 1795 | France | Brother of famed Louis Braille | |
| Carol Davis | 1926 | Indiana | My aunt | |
| Nathan Ehrmann | 1841 | Switzerland | My great-grandfather | |
| Frederick Lehman | 1868 | Germany | He wrote the hymn "The Love of God | |
| Lennart Nilsson | 1922 | Sweden | Photographer of the unborn child in the womb | |
| Charles Wilson Peale | 1741 | British America | Artist and naturalist | |
| James Whitcomb Riley | 1849 | Indiana | "The Hoosier Poet"" | |
| Gene Stratton Porter | 1863 | Indiana | Author, artist and naturalist |
I love ...
This big, beautiful earth God has given us, and l look forward to His eternity. “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man The things which God has prepared for those who love Him." 1 Cor. 2:9

Shirley,
Thank you for putting the information in for our gg grandfather Phillip. I got a thank you from someone because I edited and put a bio on my husbands g grandfather. I don't see how they can send thank you's for that. I was looking to how to do it to send you one on the bio and didn't see how to do that. I am doing it here for you, couldn't see where to send the thank you. Still learning!! Thanks Cindy

Hi Shirley,
It's been a while. Just wanted to let you know my brother is doing Y-DNA it will take a while but might give more clues to Ehrman Switzerland ties. Also having husbands done. He should show ties to Jewish from lithuania. Will be interesting anyway to see where it shows all being from.

Hi Shirley!
You already have the OPS project badge, but I'll make sure your studies get added to the list if they aren't already there.
And I don't mind if you use my chart. I've put the code here so you can see how to create it: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Nelson-3486_Test
