Welcome to WikiTree!
We're growing a FREE worldwide family tree, striving for ONE collaborative profile for every person.
A couple suggestions to get you started:
Our Honor Code is a very important part of why our community is such a friendly place to grow your family tree so please take some time to read it.
Feel free to ask a question at our G2G forum, found in the upper right of the screen, under the My WikiTree tab.
Our help pages, also top right, have all sorts of useful information.
If you would like to contribute by adding information, click the volunteer button and leave a comment here on your profile to let our greeters know.
You should include a little bit about how you plan to contribute to the tree.
Happy Hunting,
Jess
