Hi Mark! 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 to 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!
To become a full member (aka Wiki Genealogist), just sign the Honor Code. I've found the best way to research my family in WikiTree is to post what I know and connect to existing profiles when I find them. Youll find a list of (hopefully helpful) links in my "Greeter" sectionespecially the Sources links and links to my fellow greeters Debby and Maggie, who have helpful information on their profile pages also. If you get stuck on anything and can't find an answer in WikiTree Help, try G2G or give me a holler.
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.
I'm the eldest of 4 children , to Douglas John Barry Keating ( father)and Thelma Rita Bonnici (mother)
Grand Parents on my fathers side are John (jack) Godfrey Leonard Keating and Gwenifer Jocelyn gillies.
My grandfathers brother was Thomas Keating and he was married to Nell .

Warm regards Mark.

Now that you have had a little time to try WikiTree, there are a few more features you may find useful.
Ideas on what to include in a profile can be found in Styles and Standards, including some tips on writing biographies.
If you need to describe an event, an heirloom or a location relevant to your research, you may like to learn about Free Space Profiles.
Lastly, sometimes you'll run into unresponsive profile managers. We have a process for resolving those unfortunate situations.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask via my profile page.
