Hi ,

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.

Hi Diana,

Just a quick PS

Don't forget to Head over to the G2G forum. and take a minute to introduce yourself in the Tree House or ask a question in any of the other categories. There's also a brickwall tag in the G2G forum: for that "special" ancestor who is eluding you.

if you have pre-1700's ancestors to add please read our Pre-1700 profiles info.

Best Wishes, and have fun adding your leaves and branches!

To help you get started, check out an introductory WikiTree video that a member created. For member benefits, see our Community Members page.

We also have a Mentor Team who will be glad to answer questions and help you with any specific problems.

Welcome and Enjoy!

I see you have uploaded your DNA for comparison.

Did you know we have a project for DNA where a lot of great new things are happening? If you are interested and would like to check it out, click here, http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Project:DNA

I've been searching for the facts concerning my family since I promised my Mother I would carry on her life's work. It was miraculous the amount of information she compiled by doing a great deal of legwork. She actually found the grave sites of several elusive members of our family! After her passing, I continued her work, (begrudgingly at first), but soon became hooked on tracing just about every line of our tree! It has become the love of my life! So much history!
