Hi Cathy, Thank you for joining the June Connect-an-Officer Challenge. The Challenge had fifteen members working on connecting the Officers. We had 50 Officers connected to the WikiTree Community, there were 16 Officers who were connected to family, although not to the WikiTree Community, and 8 Officers who weren't connected to any family. The Challenge Tracker recorded 934 entries, although there would have been more, because not all the entries were recorded. Thank you again for all the work you did for the Challenge.
Cathy (Lee) Brandstetter created 57 profiles in June 2024 US Civil War Project Connect-an-Officer Challenge.

We will not have a US Civil War July Challenge, but in August we will be tackling the Marietta National Cemetery in Georgia

Hi Cathy, Thank you for the research you did on the Sutler's Challenge. We now have 31 sutlers listed in the Category: Sutlers, Union States of America.

We also have a new space page for those who would like to continue the research: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Sutlers_of_the_U.S._Civil_War

Hi Cathy,

Thanks for having a Big Heart and adopting Orphan Profiles. You will want to read this After adopting orphans FAQ to understand what to do next and it explains the special attention those profiles need. You may also want to go through the new member help on How to manage your Watchlist.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask!

Hi, Catherine

Congratulations on certifying to work on pre-1700 profiles! It’s very important to read and understand the Pre-1700 Profiles page. These profiles for deep ancestors are shared by many, and collaborating on them works best if we all follow the guidelines in the certification quiz.

Primary sources should always be added to pre-1700 profiles at the time they are created. If you don't have a source for a pre-1700 profile, it would be best to ask for help in the G2G forum before creating the profile.

Hi Catherine

How is it going so far. were the How-Tos pages helpful or did they leave you with questions? Questions ask in our G2G forum Click Here  

Clicking your green tags shows members who follow that tag. Add tags other family surnames, for locations. The tags link you to the community sourcing & research options.

We want to help you learn about the site and the community, hopefully you found the pages and links useful. Check out our Videos Click Here

Hi Catherine,

Thanks for volunteering! You are now a full member of the WikiTree community, and can start adding your family. Let me know if you have any questions.

Since WikiTree is different from other genealogy sites, we have a guided tour for new members at New Member How-To. Feel free to work through the How-Tos at your own pace.

Once you add profiles to WikiTree they become searchable and in my experience persons interested in these profiles will contact you and may provide further information to expand your family tree.

Great to have you on board, enjoy, and good luck growing your branches.

Ludwig :)
