Congratulations, you've been a WikiTree member for a month! We're glad you're here. A few tips to help you dive in even deeper:
Check out Beyond the Basics of WikiTree for a guide on some of our more advanced features such as Projects, Categories, and Merging.
We're very active on our social sites and we have an excellent blog where you'll find our monthly newsletter as well as tips, interviews with our members and guest posts from others in the genealogy community.
And we're always looking for volunteers to assist in different ways.
As always, I'm here to help if you have any questions!
Im SO glad you found us. WikiTree's synergy is amazing. I just confirmed you as a member (once you sign the Honor Code, youll be a full member aka a Wiki Genealogist). An important aspect of WikiTree is providing sources for information (even if its just "Aunt Louisa told me in 1984...") my profile page has a link to Sources Resources, where Ive tried to provide an overview of source information.
Give G2G or me a holler if you get stuck on anything, and thank you for joining our collaborative tree. Remember that our mission is to build a global tree with just one profile per person, so please look for duplicates before adding a profile.
Um, after my grandmother passed away my family lost our main genealogist; so when I found her books I took up the mantle converting it to the 21st century and ask other elders to send me any info too. I'm a direct descendent of Jacob and Sarah Elliott and going to be making a few edits to my ancestry.com tree and then uploading it to a here which seems amazingly awesome. Can't wait to join. I already found stuff missing here that I found using the paid version of ancestry.com, excited.
As a guest, you can search for your ancestors and participate in G2G, where you can ask questions that you didn't find an answer to in WikiTree Help (see the "Help" drop-down menu at upper rightfor additional links that may be of use, please click my name and check out the links I list under my "Greeter" sectionespecially the Sources links and the link to my fellow greeter Debby, who also has helpful information on her profile page).
If you would like to join WikiTree, and help with our mission of one tree, please read the Honor Code, volunteer, and post a comment on your profile page; we'll be glad to add you to the WikiTree community.
