Hi,

I sent you a check-in message several days ago about the 1776 Project to ask you about your past and continued involvement but have not yet heard back from you. Do you still want to be in the project?

If I don’t hear from you in a week or so, I’ll assume that you’ve moved on to other things, but you’re most welcome to re-join the project at any time.

Looking forward to hearing from you,

Best wishes,

Betty -- 1776 Project Leader

Hello,

It's time for a 1776 Project check-in! Please respond within the next two weeks to let me know if you want to continue as a member of the project. We'd like to know:

• If you are on the right team or if you'd like to make a change. It's a requirement that every 1776 Project member is a part of one of the project's teams, so if you're not assigned to a team, let us know which team you'd like to join.
• What you think the project is doing well, and what changes you'd like to see us make?

Please respond to this message by posting a reply below or sending me a private message on WikiTree. If we don’t hear from you within two weeks, we will assume you are no longer interested in participating in the 1776 Project, and your badge will be removed. If you wish to reapply for membership later, we will be happy to have you back.

Many thanks, and I look forward to hearing from you!

Hello Heather,

During the winter, the Nordic Project performed check-ins, sent as a private message from your profile. You are one of those members who has not replied, and this is a last chance to get in touch and let me know if you like to continue as member in the Nordic Project.

Please answer this comment, and get in touch by sending me a private message. If we have not heard from you within a month you will be removed from the Nordic google group and your badge will be removed.

If you have not received any check-in emails, you might want to check that your email adress for WikiTree is one you actually still use.

Thank you!

Missy Berryann Co-Leader, Nordic Project

Hi Heather, The New Jersey Slavery Resources space page is open for editing. Please feel free to add any resources to it. Our documentation team will keep up with how they are organized on the page, but we welcome any additions we can get. Thanks! Emma~~USBH Project.

Hello,

I am checking in on behalf of the 1776 Project to announce the new project membership requirements and to verify that you are still interested in being a member of the project. All project members are being asked to join one of the project teams and also to make at least one project contribution every 6 months. We are also asking all project members to join the project's Google Group for project communications.

If you are interested in remaining with the Project, please reply to this comment or send me a message, request to join the Google Group, and let us know what team you would like to participate on.

We really appreciate your contributions on WikiTree, and thank you for all your hard work. If you have any questions, please ask. We would also love to hear any feedback you may have for the project.

If we don't hear back from you we will assume that you no longer wish to participate in the project and if so, you could rejoin at any time as is convenient for you.

We look forward to hearing from you soon!

Never doubt how much you are appreciated! Thanks for all you do!

Heather,

Thank you so much for the sources. I added them to the Source Table for 1776

Heather,

Thanks so much for taking the time to post a resource for the 1776 Project Resources Page! It was very generous of you.

Hi Heather!

I saw your comment on the book "THE WOOLVERTON FAMILY: 1693 – 1850 and Beyond" at wikitree.com/wiki/Space:The_Woolverton_Family%2C_1693-1850_and_Beyond. I'm hoping you can look up some information on Thomas Dawson (1776-1834) in the book? I'm trying to prove/disprove his children, especially a David Dawson (1806-1896). Google provides a line for reference: "The thieves sprang up and fired, killing John Wolverton and wounding the constable. ... They lived at Bryan, near London, Ontario, and he died on 6 January 1855. ... [1267] Thomas Dawson is said to have been born around 1810 in St. John?, ..." so possibly pg. 1267 or footnote/endnote 1267, if that helps to locate anything. The Thomas Dawson mentioned is actually Tom Dawson Jr. I'm looking for Tom Sr.

Thank you! Aurora

Hi Heather. A few weeks ago, as I was looking further into the genealogy of my late mother-in-law Carolyn (Riggs) Spencer, I found that Carolyn was descended from several New Sweden families. Naturally I've been delving into Craig's articles and books, and in the process I found that Craig said court records (which ones?) gave Elias Toy/Tay's full name as Elias Janssen Tay. Elsewhere Craig says Elias' father's name is unknown - but in that time and place a patronymic (whether Dutch or Swedish/Finnish) always gives the father's name. The surname Tay or Toy would be Flemish or Dutch - "du Thoy" or "du Toict" (of the barn/stable).... And yes, I'm interested in the New Sweden project.

Hi Heather - I sent you a private message in reply to your post asking about my connection to the New Sweden families. Thank you for getting in touch!

Hi Heather, thanks for the heads-up on those additional Norfolk sources. I've added them to the Norfolk Resources page, and added the volumes for Norfolk to the existing Phillimore FreeSpace page.

Cheers, Chris

Hi Heather,

According to Lucy Husted's obituary, her parents were "Calib and Phoebe". The Illinois, Deaths and Stillbirths Index, 1916-1947 gives Luisa (Husted) Rigg's parents as Caleb Husted and Phoebe Purdy, both born in Ohio. MRs Phebe Husted married John Champ 12 Sep 1858 in McDonough Co.

Hi Heather, I've had fun adding people to the New Jersey's founder's category.  :-) I married into the Lippincott family, so my husband is your cousin. I hadn't noticed that my tree wasn't viewable. I opened it up, so you should be able to see how you are related now. Carrie

Thanks for the additions to Benjamin Angelo-20. I feel confident that your conjecture on the baptism record is correct and you have extended my paternal line by a generation. I have long thought that Benjamin was the son of Samuel Angelo and Ann (Annika) Cock, who were married at Penn's Neck in 1724, but I had absolutely no sources, before this!

You're welcome :) Keep up the great work!
