I’ve not heard back from you regarding the 1776 Project check-in so have gone ahead and removed you from the project for now.

If you’d like to rejoin at any stage you would be most welcome to do so by answering the G2G sign-up post here

Many thanks,

Betty -- 1776 Project Leader

Hi,

I sent you a check-in message several days ago about the 1776 Project to ask you about your past and continued involvement but have not yet heard back from you. Do you still want to be in the project?

If I don’t hear from you in a week or so, 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,

Best wishes,

Betty -- 1776 Project Leader

Greetings from the 1776 Project . . .

We're doing our semi-annual check-in to ask whether you have made contributions to the project in the last six months?

Please note that it is a requirement for membership in the 1776 Project that you respond to this check-in. Please post your response as a reply to this message on your page, for convenience of record keeping.

We look forward to hearing from you.

Hello,

I am checking in on behalf of the 1776 Project to announce the new project membership requirements and to verify that you are still interested in being a member of the project. All project members are being asked to join one of the project teams and also to make at least one project contribution every 6 months. We are also asking all project members to join the project's Google Group for project communications.

If you are interested in remaining with the Project, please reply to this comment or send me a message, request to join the Google Group, and let us know what team you would like to participate on.

We really appreciate your contributions on WikiTree, and thank you for all your hard work. If you have any questions, please ask. We would also love to hear any feedback you may have for the project.

If we don't hear back from you we will assume that you no longer wish to participate in the project and if so, you could rejoin at any time as is convenient for you.

We look forward to hearing from you soon!

Well, hi there, Vince!

Nice to find another Elkin/Elkins family researcher! Thanks for your catch on the Ralph Elkin/s new profile.

Are you familiar with the work on the Elkins family by Carolyn Elkins Stultz?

Hope to hear from you! ~ Lynda McCann (Vollmer-279)

That was quick! It wasn't even five minutes from when I proposed the John Moore merge until you completed it, Thanks!

Thank you for your merge suggestion on John Elkins, however, at this time with so little verification, I can not confirm it to be the same person. As time permits, I will do further research and make changes necessary.

Hi Vince

I am also searching for information on Leah Heaton (b. Carter ca1790-1840). I also have the Loudoun Co, VA 1809 marriage certificate of her marriage to James Heaton. I'm curious as to why you show the mother of the Heaton children as unknown? I am a decedent of Mary Heaton, sister of James Monroe Heaton. I'm going to upload my DNA to this site to see if we have a match.

Welcome to the 1776 Project (http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Project:1776), a subproject of the Military and War Project: http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Projects#Military_and_War_Project

There are category links to add to your ancestor's profiles and research links to learn more about your family. The Project is a good way to consolidate the WikiTree ancestors with historic connections to the years of 1773 (Boston Tea Party) to 1789 (ratification of the U.S. Constitution.) All patriot, loyalist, Hessians, French, Native Americans or any other profiles with a connection to these years should be linked to an appropriate category in the Project.

If you haven’t already, please set your preferences for your Tags Followed to include 1776 Project and any other tag terms that you wish to follow: http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Special:Following

Some categories have a template (SAR) to add at the top of a biography. If not, add a category link by putting the category name such as Template:1776 for those who bore arms in the Revolution and Template:1776 for those who contributed patriotic or civil service. Thank you.

Hi Vince, Thanks for your quick response! On WikiTree we always enter the name of the town, county, etc. that it was called at the time of the event. If that leaves something unclear, any changes can be explained in the biography. We also spell out the name of the state, Massachusetts, not MA, for example. And then from 1776 on, it's customary to use USA. And if you don't know the exact location, entering the state, or country on WikiTree is a great help to others trying to sort out which 'Tom Smith' you might have created a profile for.

Hi Vince, Welcome to WikiTree! When you enter dates prior to 1776, please don't enter 'US' 'USA' or 'United States'. Just the city, county & colony name are enough. Thanks!

Vince,

I am awarding you the PGM project badge. Please read the Project page carefully. Our goal is to enhance the profiles covered by adding good, sourced biographies and by discovering and merging duplicates.

It is very important to understand the good sources available. Generally, we use Robert Charles Anderson's Great Migration Series as our go-to source, unless there is something better or more recent. Also, inline sources are extremely important, so you should become proficient in citation format and methods, as well as with the Style Guidelines.

If you need help, please let me know. Vic

You are now a member of the WikiTree Community. Please note we are trying to build one Collaborative Tree which means one profile per person. It is important to ensure no duplicates are entered as you add Profiles to WikiTree - if you have pre-1700's ancestors to add please read our Pre-1700 profiles info.

If you need any help getting started check out the help section from the menu, top right, or head over to the G2G forum and take a minute to introduce yourself in the Tree House. You might also want to check out the introductory WikiTree video that a member created.

We also have Mentors to help too. Kern Brogan

Welcome to WikiTree! The initial email from us has helpful links that will get you started on WikiTree, which is not like any genealogy site you’ve ever used.

WikiTree is different because our goal is to have one profile per person, and that means we all work together as a BIG collaborative team!

What brings you to WikiTree? Do you have research you’d like to share? Are you interested in how your family fits into the big tree? When you confirm your email address, you’ll see a Volunteer option on your profile page. Click that and leave us a short message about your genealogical interests. A Greeters Project volunteer will be happy to confirm your membership, and you’ll be on your way! Welcome to the family! We’re really glad you’re here.
