Hello, Gail,

Thank you so much for responding to our check-in for the Miltary and War Project.

Hi Gail. I believe I'm your 5th cousin once removed. Our common ancestor is Johann Philip Fetterman, b. 1761 My line is Johann Philip -> Philip -> Catherine Ann & Cornelius Starner -> Catherine Jane and William Llewelyn Haney -> George -> Beatrice & Ted May -> Jean and Walt Williams -> me

Hello, Gail! I'm setting up categories for the new Palatine Migration project. While looking for existing content that might have been waiting for these categories, I ran across your page about The Ship Winter Galley. Although it looks like you created it mostly for your own family, I think it would be of interest to other Palatine descendants (possibly including other descendants of people on this ship) wanting to know what our ancestors went through. Would you be willing to consider adding it to Category:Palatine Ships? (That's an existing category that I found and "adopted" into the new project.) And maybe you'd even considering joining us in the project.  :-) See the page Space: Palatine Migration for information.

Hello Gail, I would like to be added as a Categorization Project Member. Will you add the badge to my profile. My family originated from England and (or) the United Kingdom, so, would like to try my hand at categorization of them. Also, do some in Military and the categorization of the LDS Pioneers. Will be slow at it as I'm new at this and am still not too good at working on computer so will have to learn. Thanks, for all you do.
How goes the Mac Interest Group? I have added my name to the Category page. E Lauraine Syrnick just had a Mac related issue on G2G which I hope I helped her with. And recently had a conversation on G2G about using Parallels and the new MacBridge for Rootsmagic. Just wondering if we want to do a little advertising and promote this group?

One or more photos you recently uploaded is a nominee to be our Family History Photo of the Week.

We'll feature the winner on the main WikiTree home page all next week and share it on our social networks. I assume you wouldn't mind having the photo featured like this, if it were to win. If for some reason you wouldn't want this, let me know right away. We could remove it from the list of nominees if you let me know before Friday. Also, it isn't necessary, but if you have any more information about the photo or the person, I am sure members of the group would love to hear any stories or information that adds background color. You can add the additional information in the comment box here underneath the photo. Thank you!

Gail: I have an unnamed person as this is what I did I was entering a Son to my Grandfather and did not go back to the Grandfather to enter the data and this needs to be removed or something or a merge I am not sure how to change it
Hi Gail, Isaac Bédard is here twice as the husband of Marie Girard-145. So we have Bédard-243 and Bedard-38 (without the accent), which are the same person. Is the accent difference the reason why two husbands of the same name were attributed to Marie Girard ?

So, with French names if we put or not the accent, will the similar names be located ? I hesitated to write accents because sometimes they are weirdly interpreted in some programs. Please tell me if they should be there.

Thanks !
