Hi Mark - Just read your feed - I guess on a Mackey connection, which was my husband's mother...however, I also noticed your comment about your family tying in with the Clapp surname. My sister is married to Lawrence Clapp, son of Cecil Clapp- his descent is straight back to the first Clapp that arrived in MA in the1600's. Neither one of them has submitted a DNA sample. D.M.

Mark,

Welcome to the Australian Projects team. I am working on the Eureka Stockade project. You will find most people on Wikitree to be supportive & helpful. If there you have any questions I'm happy to find an answer. Ken

Hi Mark. A section of a FLOOD tree has grown over to BENNICK (West Australia) who you added a while ago.

I think someone's leaping over from the Floods in Ireland soon. Cheers Wheels Flood

Hi Mark, welcome to the Australia Project. We are really happy that you've joined us. Thanks :) Gillian, co-Leader, Australia Project.

Hi Mark

It's that time of the year again: check-in time! As England Project Leaders, we like to check in with you every six months or so to see how things are progressing. Back in May, we didn't ask for a response due to the rapid emergence of Covid-19 because we understood that people's lives were changing rapidly. While we are still living in a Covid world, we do need to hear back from you this time around.

First of all, how are you doing? What are you currently working on? Are you happy with the team(s) you're in, or would you like to change things up?

Secondly, we're looking for some feedback on the Google Group and our Discord server. Do you use either or both of these? If you don't use either, why not? Do you have any suggestions on how we can improve participation and collaboration, either generally or for you personally?

Looking forward to hearing from you,

Joan, Amy & Lizzie.

Hi Mark, keen to join the dots on how we are connected. You made a recent profile update on Evelyn R Macdonald (Halloran). Apologies if I should have already made this connection, the whole Genealogy things is very new to me. Regards Brett Halloran

Hi Mark,

Your England Leaders are completing the six monthly check in with all team members. I wanted to thank you for your work on English Profiles. These are unprecedented and difficult times, and we understand as Project Leaders that your situation may have changed somewhat in the last few months. What we are all able to/ wish to contribute on Wikitree has changed. Please let me know if you are happy with your current role and team choice or if you wish to do something additional or different. Thank you again on behalf of all the project leaders for everything you do!

Kindest Regards, Amy Utting

HI I really need contact with you. My mum gave me some photo's last week and the first name on the back of the photo is one of yours

Hi Mark! I suspect your Isaac Love may be related to my ancestor, Jane Teresa Love (b. about 1823 in Cork), but no evidence yet. https://www.familysearch.org/tree/person/sources/LJKZ-2F7

Also, while looking up your ancestor, I found an Isaac Love in an 1849 land assessment document living in the same building in Cork City as a William O'Brien (maybe related to Mary O'Brien?): https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3QSQ-G94J-MSFZ?i=304&cc=2329951&personaUrl=%2Fark%3A%2F61903%2F1%3A1%3AQVMG-3Q27

Other Cork family names I am working on: Hunt, Love, Compton, Kemp, Rountree, Ball. I haven't yet had the opportunity to upload my tree to WikiTree, but you can have a look at Family Search if you like.

Let me know if you find a connection, and PM me if you like.

let me know if i can help with German translations / connections

Hi Mark,

On behalf of the England Leaders, I wanted to say a huge thank you for all your contributions towards the project in the past six months as a Team Member for GEDcoms and Managed Profiles. We've achieved a great deal during this time and we couldn't have done it without you.

Are you happy to stay in your current teams and the project as a whole? Are there any other teams you'd like to join? What are we doing well, and what would you like to see us doing differently moving forwards?

Please respond to this message via e-mail. I look forward to hearing from you.

Many thanks,

Susie, England Project Leader :-)

Hello Mark My Family is nearly all Devon and Cornwall. You do not match me, but you do have a match to my brother KX8461445 and half paternal aunt A213519 . Different segments and different MRCA. I would suggest that it is likely to be a link in the Exeter area.

Hi Mark, 14 degrees, very cool, especially as many links have a connection to the Shoalhaven area, even some to Bomaderry, where I grew up.

Regards,

Margaret

Hi Mark please could you give me the evidence for adding Perth to the death place for Alexander Murray-4168 as it looks unlikely to me. Sarah Jordan

Hi Mark!

In July 2019, you made 1000+ (actually, over 2900!) contributions to our Shared Tree! I commend for your time and effort. Keep up the great work!

Appologies for the delay in approving your request - been away for a few weeks. All sorted

Hi Mark,

Many thanks for all your work. I have inserted the date of birth and death for Michael Hallissey. When I have more time I hope to add some more information to the Hallissey tree. Ellen
