Hello Chantelle, I am a new member to this site and am currently doing research on the Rutley framily from Berne, Switzerland. I would love to talk with you as I am planning on going there. Thanks J Lowe
Hi Chantelle, I see that you just volunteered and signed our honor code. That's great! Here at WikiTree we like to have our members involved with others; collaboration is key! Is there a particular time period, location, or topic you're interested in? Maybe you have some historically-significant ancestors? Why don't you stop by the Canadian History project, (currently led/coordinated by Erin Breen to see how you can participate? I'll let the leaders know you are interested!
Let me know if you need help with anything. We are glad to have you on board!
Chantelle, I was looking at your tag, and I'd like to suggest that you change it so that you have one tag for each surname (Speight, Dextrase) and location (Canada). By doing that, you can then click on those tags, and you'll be taken to a page where you'll see other genealogists who are also following those surnames and locations.
Thanks for volunteering, Chantelle! You are now a confirmed member of the WikiTree community.
