Hello Paula,

It has been a good while since the Magna Carta Project asked members to check-in. We are interested now in updating our membership list and making sure that it accurately reflects our current membership. We would greatly appreciate your timely response to the following questions:

1. Would you like to continue as a member of the Magna Carta Project?

2. Do you have any interest in taking a more active role in the project and, if so, what might you be interested in doing?

3. If your interests have changed and/or you no longer have time to participate in the project, would you like to remain a member of the google group and continue receiving updates about project activities?

If you do wish to continue as a project member, please either post a response to this message or send me a private email. If we do not hear from you by October 16th we will assume you are exploring different interests and no longer wish to be involved with the project.

with warmest regards,

Jen, Magna Carta Project co-leader

Our user name at Ancestry: Howard_CarolAnn.

Our data base is on line there. AAAAAAAlong with other trees.

Carol Ann ( who is 80) and I are ok. I added some profiles at Wikitree. I added names at my ancestry tree.

So, I am doing some genealogy. I am into presevation now.

I decided to put in some new profiles. Which you noticed. We see too many doctors too often. Doctors watch old people.

I do have a coplicted system. I put names in at my Ancestry tree. I use the :hint system" to find basic facts. I put the facts into our data base. Then, I add profiles at Wikitree. I have to profiles one at a time. Putting up a GEDCOM of 42,000 + people at wikitree is impossible. I do have material at different places on line. And, I have material at a few Libraries. No book is possible. Too many non paternal events and dead ends. I have to find other places and people to send stuff.

Hello,

I have joined the Chapman One Name Study, can I please have a One Name Study badge added to my profile?

Hi Paula,

I would like to be made part of the Spencer Project. I've done a great deal of research on the Spencers of Virginia.

I emailed you reports on Waldrop the other day.

I have been adding profiles at Wikitree. I think that most Waldrop profiles are mine.

I sent a thumb drive to 2 NC Gen Societies. I sent thumb drives to my sister and nephew.

Paula Thanks for replying to the Military and War check in. I keep a google sheet for Military and War as well as another for Southern Colonies. So I have marked you as Active. Have a good year. Mary

Paula,

I sent you a check-in message a week ago about the Military and War Project to ask you about your continued involvement but have no yet heard back from you. Do you still want to be in the project?

If I don’t hear from you by the same time next week 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,

Mary, Project Coordinator, Military and War Project

Paula, will you add Roll of Honor badge to https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Grosvenor-670

Steve did not add that badge to my list of badges to add??

Thanks

Thanks also for the birthday message

Can a Notable sticker be added to Audie Murphy?

Hi Paula,

Are you still interested in supporting the Choctaw Nation team of the Native Americans project?

https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Project:Choctaw_Nation

I ask because someone just expressed interest in joining the team and when I looked at its page, I saw you listed as project coordinator.

Thanks.

If you liked what I did with Wanzel, wait till you see what I do with her 2nd great-grandpappy. I think I found his father!!!!

Kizeah Ridge has not been proven be the wife of Jabez Jarvis Sr. In fact, there is good evidence that she is not. Please take her off the tree!

Thank you Howard!

You have contributed a phenomenal amount of research!! I will keep working and watching. Sometime images are indexed or records turn up. Thanks for all of your hard work!

Paula

I am adding a few profiles

Waldrop genealogy is as finished as it ever will be. I just want people to find accurate material without a lot of trouble. We are, both, old.

Thank you for helping. I really appreciate it.

I am Waldrop-192.

Carol Ann is Waldrop-97.

We are married to each other.

Wolud you take care of that?

Thank you!! I appreciate your help.

WE have trees at ancestry. I have been working on one of them. Ancestry gets a lot of traffic, which is why we have trees there.

Carol Ann and I are, both ill. She is 78; I am 76. Both us appreciate all that you have done . Green Berry is Carol Ann's waldrop ancestor.

If you want to add profiles from the GEDCOM that I sent, pease start with Green Berry Waldrop --- Waldrop- 102.

Thank you!

I emailed you a GEDCOM. You are free to use it.

Paula

I am going to email you a GEDCOM of some of our data. Be sure to look for ir.

Howard Waldrop

Hi Paula,

I sent an email to you yesterday regarding changes on an Arbuthnot profile. I haven't received a reply, so I just want to make sure I'm not landing in your spam/junk folder.

Looking forward to your response.

Hi Paula,

It’s time for our annual Ireland Project check-in! Please respond within the next two weeks to let me know:

• If you are happy with the team you’re on or if you’d like to make a change. It is now required that all members with an Ireland project badge work on at least one of the project’s team(s), so if you’ve not yet signed up please do so in your reply to this check-in.

• What you think the project is doing well, and what (if any) changes you would like to see us make? Are there any teams you would like to become more active in?

• Would you be interested in helping to work on an Ireland Project newsletter?

• Please give us some feedback on the use of google group and discord. Do you use one or both of these? If you don’t use either of them, what is the best way for us to ensure you receive project communications? If you would like to join us on either one, Just let us know in your response and we will get you signed up.

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 Ireland 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!

Sincerely, Jen Hutton, on behalf of the Ireland Project

Hi Paula,

I’d like to join the “Johnson” one name study.

Hi Paula, just wanted to thank you for all the work you've done on the Civil War Project. It makes things a lot easier for me.

P Kreuzer, US Civil War Project Leader

Hi Paula, I would like to join the Johnson one name project when you get around to it. Thanks

Paula, thanks for your offer to help with the Military and War project. I have very little experience in leading a project but I'm very eager to get my feet wet. Your guidance is greatly appreciated.

Barry

the wife was ill; and this corona virus business put a crimp in genealogy. I hope to find people chasing Waldrop

Hello, May I join the "Johnson Name Study" project?

Hi Paula,

I hope you are keeping well. I am working on the Air Transport Auxiliary (ATA) female pilots. Please can you set up an ATA space page for me linked to Women in WWII.

Unlike the Women Airforce Service Pilots, this was a civilian group attached to the Royal Air Force, do you know which sticker I should use for those that died on active service?

Thank you.

Hi Paula,I am trying to write nicer biographies for my grandfather and great grandfather for Memorial Day. I have just done my first sticker, WWII, and the flag isn't showing up. Can you give me any tips? The profile is Edward Chaillet II and here is what I entered... I tried it with and without the last "image=United States of America" but can't think of something else that is in the wrong spot or has bad spacing and hope that you might see right away what is amiss. Thank you for your time and expertise.

Leah

Hi Paula! I know you're really active, but... I'm trying to get the membership lists for US Southern Colonies Project squared away and I have a lot of "unmatched" info for you, and I also don't have a record of your ever responding to the project's checkins (I've only been involved in the January 2021 checkin... I just double-checked and if you responded, I either missed it or mis-filed it). So... two things: US Southern Colonies Project has two participation requirements: (1) respond the the 6-month checkins & (2) join a team.

If you'll reply to this comment, that'll take care of (1). And you are a member of a team, but I need to clarify which one(s). This is what my records show:

You are

• a member of the Province of South Carolina Team (you're on the trusted list & listed as a member on the page, with your interest areas, added by Mary in November 2020, as "ancestors in South Carolina and Georgia"
• not a member of the Georgia Team. Should you be?
• listed in the Project Members table as being on the Jamestown, Carolina & SC teams - you're all set for the SC Team but not the Jamestown or Carolina teams. Do you want to be on either/both/neither? (You're currently on the trusted lists for both the Jamestown Team & the Carolina Team, but not listed as a member on the page.)

Thanks!!

P.S. Also, just to clarify - folks who are members of the Southern Pioneers Project should have the United States Project badge, not be awarded the US Southern Colonies Project badge. Anyone wanting to be a badged member of the US Southern Colonies Project who isn't should answer the project's G2G welcome post (see the link on the project page, under "How to Join").

edit - forgot to add (1712-1776) to the SC Team name

Paula, I reached out to Mary Richardson as well to ask if someone from Team South Carolina would be willing to help us dig in to this South Carolina family? It's part of the WikiTree Challenge ending Wednesday and we're trying to decide if we have enough info to declare this Joachim Hudson profile to be conflated and in need of splitting:

https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/1220906/who-really-was-jacob-hudsons-father-james-joachim-joakim

Paula would like to work with you and team on improving South Carolina, especially since my Stephens and Langstons came from there, were in war there too. Let me know how I can help

Thank you Paula,

Your mentoring is working Darrel

Thanks Paula:) ... Refresh my memory ... Did I put in a request to join another project?

Paula, Need you to award Civil War badge to this lady. https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Stephens-3929

Alice M Thomsen. Then I will add her to Military And War Google Group..

~ Mary ~

hope you are OK

Hi Paula,

I would like to Join the Roll of Honor project, please. I have added the tag to my profile, however, there is not a new thread on G2G to post an answer to. I have several members of my family (from both sides) that have earned some of the highest Military Awards given, including Silver Stars, Bronze Stars, Meritorious Service Medals, Distinguished Flying Crosses, Purple Hearts, and Air Medals.

I would also like to join The Forgotten Ones sub-project, please. I have at least 2 members of my mother's side that are currently listed on the Tablets of the Missing at the American Cemetery & Mausoleum in Manila, Philippines.

Greetings! I am interested in joining the One Name Study for Johnson, will you please add the One Name Study badge added to my profile? Thank you!!!

Hello Paula, I would like join Spencer project.

My maternal grandmother was Mabel May Spencer, daughter of Howard Orson, son of Orson Spencer. My sis in law Kathleen Black is writing a book about Orson, she has been gathering info for years, including a mission to the Nauvoo temple where she worked in the records room. Fascinating stuff! I am fairly new here, but have trees on Family Search and Ancestry.
