"Remember the rock whence ye are hewn, and the pit whence ye are digged."
Living artist, writer, scholar residing in Montreal, Quebec, Canada.
Please see the following profile for my adoptive family information:
Compilation of research has been an ongoing family history and artistic project undertaken from (1990- present) for over 25 years from publicly sourced data and private interviews with immediate family members called Genealogies of Illegitimacy.
Names of minor children are strictly private, except in the case of public figures.
For recent generations, many assumptions are made, that the parents were married at age 25, and that children were born 2 years apart, this is the best approximation that I have for unlisted offspring until further data becomes available!
Family members are encouraged to request access and update their personal information where available. This project focuses on genetic relatives, and immediate ancestors of Jason Knight.
If any family members wish to have their identity marked private, please contact me through the WikiTree Private Message link.
I know that there are many profiles that need cleaning up or further detail, I am working on it!

This week we have your last stop on the guided tour. Hopefully, you're feeling like a WikiTree pro! If not, you can always revisit the tour stops via the comment boxes on the right side of your profile.
You've covered a lot of ground the past few weeks. Today, we want to give you just a few more tools that can take you even deeper into the WikiTree forest without getting lost: How to Dig a Little Deeper.
Please do not hesitate to ask questions! If the above link does not work from your email, please go to your profile in the public comments and it will work from there.
Thanks, WikiMesssenger Cindy
You may have been hard at work getting connected to family members who are already here and adding those who were missing. You probably have at least a few profiles that you manage now. There's a fast and easy way to access those profiles using the Watchlist. So, this week we're going to look at How to Manage Your Watchlist. Please let one of us know if you have questions! Just click my name above the comment, then ask in the comment section of my page. We want to help!

You've been here for several weeks now! We hope your profiles are starting to come together and that you've enjoyed getting to know all of us a little better.
You're probably getting a good feel for the collaborative nature of WikiTree by now. We know that collaboration isn't always easy. So, we've put together a few pointers that can make working in this type of environment a little easier: How to be a Successful WikiTreer.
As always, your questions are welcome!

Welcome to WikiTree
It's time for your next stop on the guided tour!
This week, we'd like to show you How to Join in the Community. There's no shortage of opportunities to get involved through social media, our forum, and projects.
Be sure to check out the One Name Studies Project to see if anyone has started a project for one of the surnames in your family. Don't see one? Follow the instructions for starting your own!
Look at the list of active projects to see if one fits your interests or research needs. You already have so much info but do explore.
Please let me know if you have questions. :-)
