Hello Ivana

Thanks for joining WikiTree. I'm a Mentor available to answer any questions or help solve any issues you may have about WikiTree.

How To Use WikiTree is a good starting point, and the Help Index is an important place to find out how to do most tasks.

Do you have Royal Ancestors? They are already here on Wikitree! Rather than create duplicate profiles for them, please contact the EuroAristo Project to discuss connecting your family line to their profiles.

If you have questions, feel free to ask me via my profile page.

Thank you for volunteering to help grow our World Wide Family Tree! You are now a member of the WikiTree Community. Please note we are trying to build one Collaborative Tree with one profile per person, so it is important to ensure no duplicates are entered as you add any Profiles to WikiTree. Everything on the site is a collaborative work in progress so don’t forget to read and sign our Honor Code. (http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Special:Honor_Code) This is what keeps WikiTree a polite, friendly and helpful community. We have many hospitable, enthusiastic members from all over the world, so always feel free to ask if you have any questions. I hope you have a wonderful experience on the site, Regards, Nancy Lee

For a few years now I have collected my mother's and father's family tree information on various bits and peaces of paper.

It would be great to finally put everything on Web, available for all relatives and interested to view and contribute. No mention of any of our family names on WikiTree so far, so reason more to start the process. I am eager to start!

I noticed you uploaded a GEDCOM. Here's a link to great instructions on adding a GEDCOM to WikiTree that you might find helpful.

If you have any brick walls, collaboration might help bust through. Because WikiTree has only one profile for each person, the further back you go in your ancestry, the more likely cousins will find you and help out. ANY Wiki Genealogist can edit "Open" profiles (over 200 years old = open). There's also a brickwall tag in the G2G forum: brickwall

The help pages give lots of information about the process, best to start with 'Before you import a GEDCOM'.

Hi and a warm welcome to WikiTree! Our community is working together to build a FREE worldwide family tree, striving for ONE collaborative profile for every person. Our help pages, top right, have all sorts of useful information, and you can always ask questions on our G2G Forum (http://www.wikitree.com/g2g/). Our Honor Code (http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Special:Honor_Code) is a very important part of why our community is such a friendly place to grow your family tree. If you'd like to help us by adding your family branches or help to grow the tree in some other way, please select the volunteer button and leave a statement, here on your profile, informing us of your interest in contributing to our project. I sincerely hope you'll join us! Happy researching, Regards, Nancy Lee
