I LOVE the stickers (seriously - don't believe me? click here). Here's one. And I have a couple from the Magna Carta Project (see below, following the test stickers). And a selection of Member stickers. And stickers from Project Challenges. And even more stickers!
Liz was a valued member of the Greeters Project who has moved to Emeritus status.
I posted this sticker with a bit of sadness. I'd joined the Greeters Project on 8 January 2013. But things change & now I'm a Greeter Emeritus. They are the Greatest Group!
And some test stickers (the first three are the Relationship Sticker, then five using the Connection Sticker; the others are based on the Descendant sticker). They were tests for the new (July 2021) Relationship Sticker and Connection Sticker.
For more Heritage stickers, see this page. It covers the new stickers and many more.
Liz (Noland) Shifflett is a member of the Daughters of the American Revolution.
... One of the stickers covered by the page just mentioned is the Society Member sticker, used here to display my membership in the DAR. For the version that goes on the Patriot Ancestor's profile, see this template page. See this G2G post for more information.
In addition to tending your own branches of the WikiTree, you can contribute through various projects, such as the Project Member badge I have for the Magna Carta Project. (As of 1 June 2020, my badges are no longer displayed here, so I removed most of the "About the Badges" section, leaving only the Project Member section, which included ... wait for it ... More Stickers! To see my badges, [click here].)
Liz is Team Leader of the Project's AM Team (Admin-Maintenance).
AND... some projects have both project badge and a members sticker, based on the new[ish] {{Member}} sticker - like US Southern Colonies Project does. (It also has Team Stickers, based on the {{Recognition Sticker}}.)
Liz (Noland) Shifflett is a member of the Peyton Name Study Project.
Liz (Noland) Shifflett is a member of the Noland Name Study Project.
Projects also have Member stickers for subprojects, which do not have their own project badge for members to display. For example, the One Name Studies has a project badge, but the individual names studied do not, but now they can have a sticker!
Cousin Connections
As my line ends with me, I'm pleased to provide what I know for my cousins (however distant :) and their descendants. In addition to profiles of our ancestors, I've added some pages with additional information:
Raised in Alexandria, Virginia, Liz moved south (a bit) and lives in Woodbridge, Virginia. She's a graduate of T.C. Williams high school (Alexandria) and began her career with the Federal Government while a senior there. She's now retired from her last Federal position: an editor for the NASA Office of Inspector General in Washington, D.C.[4]
Thoughts from Liz
I think about the lifetime of my Grandmother Elizabeth sometimes, being born in 1896 with horse and buggy the common conveyance and growing to drive her own car and fly to Israel and elsewhere. Before she died in 1989, man had walked on the moon and Space Shuttles were traveling to low Earth orbit and back.
Then today, as I finished watching the transit of Venus thanks to the Internet (not to mention the Solar Dynamics Observatory and NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center), I recalled the early days of the Internet, when I watched a grand slam by the Orioles - depicted by little animated stick figures moving around a diamond on a green screen.
Grandmother not only was born to horses and lived to see spaceflight, she was born to books and saw the advent of radio and television. I used to think, "What wonders will I see before I die?" And then I realized: I just watched the transit of Venus over a computer in my own home. I receive e-mails with images of the Earth from space, distant planets, the Milky Way, and more from the ISS, Hubble, Cassini, and other spacecraft. I think I'm seeing them![5]
AA - Northern Virginia Community College (Liberal Arts)
BA - University College, University of Maryland (Journalism)
MA - University of Oklahoma (Communication)
Something wasn't working right with e-mails to me through WikiTree from July 29 or 30 through August 3. If you sent me a private message and I didn't respond, it's because I didn't receive it. Sorry! Please re-send, as I think I've fixed the problem. You can also contact me by using the public bulletin board posting feature at right (or, if you're not a WikiTree member, post a comment or answer to my G2G post about this). Thanks!
April 2014 Notice about E-mails
The same problem that I encountered last August arose again (although I caught it faster this time). I think the problem started sometime late Saturday, April 26 (after ET 10:30 pm), and I fixed it Monday the 28th about 11 am. If you sent me a private message, trusted list request, or merge proposal and I didn't reply or take action, please re-send! Thanks!
Note to WikiTree:
Digital Afterlife: In the event of my death, I would like all of the profiles for people not living that I manage alone to be changed to Open. Also, if any project pages are still just in my name, they need to be turned over to the appropriate project. Space pages that I have created can all be changed to Open. If I missed anything (and for the Red/still living profiles on my Watchlist), I ask that they be managed by Team Wiki or a WikiTree Leader at the discretion of WikiTree. Thanks! Elizabeth L.N.

Challenges:
Challenge met! Liz developed a Gateway's profile in Feb. 2018
↑ Confirmed by DNA: 27 segments, 3,581.1 cM (from GEDmatch comparison of T227726 and T479362).
↑ Entered by Liz Shifflett, May 30 2012 (updated June 6 and December 1, 2012)
↑ Added by Liz Shifflett, June 5, 2012; links updated January 12, 2014
↑ Added May 30, 2012, by Liz Shifflett (firsthand knowledge)
↑ Added May 30, 2012, by Liz Shifflett (firsthand knowledge)
↑ 6x-gr-granddaughter of John Aldridge, born before 1702 in Virginia or Maryland
↑ 7x-gr-granddaughter of John Awbrey, born in Wales, came to Virginia in 1665
↑ gr-gr-gr-granddaughter of Elisha Brien, born in Virginia, married (2) in Tennessee in 1818; Elisha's father John changed his name from Bryan to Brien (his father was William Bryan, my 5x-gr-grand)
↑ The mother of Fannie Dixon (my 3x-gr-grand) was for sure a Harrington (Harrington-1539), and I'm fairly confident of the Harrington line for a few more generations. But it gets a bit squirrely around Thomas Sr (Harrington-428), my 7x-gr-grand.
↑ paternal grandmother's maiden name - brick wall is William P. Martin born about 1795
↑ working on my McDonald Brick Wall - proof of Willis McDonald's father/mother & grandparents
↑ Many projects have developed guidelines to help standardize how name fields (including LNAB) are filled out for the project's profiles. I created http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Name_Field_Guidelines to help people locate these guidelines & I follow this tag to help me keep it current.
↑John Henry Neal, born 1812 in Virginia, is my 3x-gr-grandfather on mom's side, and a brick wall
↑ pretty solid, albeit circumstantial, back to Philip Noland and his wife, and his dad/granddad (but not at all their added wives/ancestors)

Thank you for your participation on Team Virginia in the April 2022 Connect-A-Thon. You helped bring Team Virginia to an amazing 1st place finish. We could not have done it without you! This year's Thon members added over 84,000k new Profiles to the Global Shared Tree!! You did it! You made your goal! (no pressure, of course)
Liz (Noland) Shifflett participated with The Virginia Connectors during the 2022 Connect-a-Thon, and has added 50 connections.
Hi, Liz! I don't know if I ever mentioned this (or if you discovered it on your own) but we are 11th cousins! We are both related to Elizabeth (Soane) Duke https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Soane-27
Dolly Parton is also a descendant of the same person, so that must make her your cousin, too! Not only that, but you and I supposedly share 54 ancestors!
or not ... your profile's privacy is set to where your tree is private, so you can see your relationship to people whose tree is public (like mine) but others cannot check their relationship with you.
My Thon Mentor, thank you for your participation with Team Virginia in the January 2022 Connect-A-Thon. You helped bring Team Virginia to an amazing 2nd place finish. We could not have done it without you! This year's Thon members added over 85,000k new Profiles to the Global Shared Tree!!

This is your check in message, altho I have already marked you active..
This is the semi-annual polling for the US Southern Colonies Project. This check-in with members is to see if you have been active in the last six months in this project and do you want to remain a member of Southern Colonies.?
Please note that it is a requirement for membership in the US Southern Colonies Project that you respond to these check-ins.
I look forward to hearing from you.. Many thanks,
Mary, Project Coordinator, - Membership US Southern Colonies Project
Thank Mary! Yup, I'm still active in the US Southern Colonies Project - mostly with the Colony of Virginia Team. There are also a handful of top-level project categories that I check regularly for people profiles.
There should be no more than five Profile Stickers on one profile. Three is better.
If more than five Profile Stickers are applicable, contributors to the profile need to decide which five represent the most important things to highlight about the person's life.
This limit does not apply to members' own account profiles. The number of Stickers a member can use on their own profile is entirely up to the member.
Thanks Liz, but I don't need to be added to those profiles. I was just ruling out any connections to my own Sannicandro branches and the birth place for Michele was ambiguous. I'm certain now that there are no connections. Nick
Hi, Liz. Regarding Robert Clayton and his New England Company, it is listed on his HOP article. It wasn't quite an ordinary company so far as I could tell but was set up with the purpose of converting the heathen in New England and might or might not still exist today. Didn't find out exactly yesterday. If we don't want to explore it, I'm happy enough to see it gone. C
Thanks! I missed it in his HOP bio (I searched for "Company" not "Co"). I had deleted it because the category didn't exist (Category: New England Company turned up as a "wanted cat"... should the category be created instead?).
Checking in re: Southern Colonies. Yes I am Team South Carolina. I know about the Southern Pioneer project being under US and having their badge, but thanks!!! Let me know if I have left out anything. Babysitting granddaughter. 😊
not sure, but I think that if there are two Elizabeth Munfords (one widow Munford, one maiden name), that would explain why the family is in a bit of disarray here in WikiTree. A few years ago, I did a ton of work to sort out the multi-generational John Banister profiles here, but they're not as I recall having left them (and here I thought that I'd left enough sourced text that they'd be ok).
Anyway, I think maybe we also had a bad merge of a couple generations of John Banisters, which would explain why there were several suggestions in the family profiles related to mother/child date warnings when I checked suggestions for of Munford-60.
Lots more research needed to sort these out. I'll pick these up again on the weekend or next week - after taxes are done!
Instead of removing 1776, could you please change it up a sticker? I see there are already 2 stickers. I think Notables could be changed to a category since the other sticker indicates he is notable in his historical importance. If you don’t agree, then leave it as it is.
Following the information I posted regarding the daughter of Peter Erondell, I thought I should check the registers just incase there was a death for her and in so doing, I found the following information regarding the family of Peter Erondell which may be useful to you.
All St Mildred Poultry (taken from original parish register)
baptism 1600 Dec 7th - Elizabeth the daughter of Peter Erondell, borne the 29th November
baptism 1603 Apr 17th - John the son of Peter Erondell, borne the 14th of the same
burial 1606 Aug 13th - the daughter of Peter Erondell buried in the churchyard, dead borne
burial 1606 Sep 4th - Elizabeth Erondell buried in the new churchyard
burial 1607 Sep 6th - Maysodde the wife of Peter Erondell, buried in the south isle (sic) of the church
baptism 1609 Dec 21st - Elizabeth daughter of Peter Erondell. borne 14th
baptism 1611/2 Feb 9th - Joane daughter of Peter Erondell borne 5th
baptism 1613 Sep 12th - Richard the son of Peter Erondell, born 7th
baptism 1614/5 Jan 11th - Margaret the daughter of Peter Erondell, borne the 5th
baptism 1616 Nov 8th - Sara the daughter of Peter Erondell and Dorothee uxor (wife), borne 2nd
I did check for marriages but there were none at St Mildred Poultry.
Regards
Thank you so much! Very helpful! I had thought it likely that the 1600 Elizabeth had died young & this confirms it. It also looks like Peter might have had three wives - maybe he married where they grew up.
Hi Liz, These 2 profiles, Louisa Lydia Barwell (1838-1923) and Robert Molesworth (1806-1890) both have the error "Born after Template time frame" related to the Magna Carta Project sticker. It looks like both were added by you in Oct 2020. Not familiar with the MC stickers, I'm hoping you can help with correcting the error, many thanks.
Hi! Thanks for pointing these out. I marked both errors as false, but I'm not sure that's a permanent solution for template timeframe errors. Discussion with Andrew Lancaster, one of the managers of the Barwell profile, led to removing the sticker. I'm working on a different solution for the Molesworth profile.
Meant to follow up on the Molesworth profile - I changed the project sticker to a tailored descendant sticker. The Descendant sticker doesn't have a timeframe restriction.
OK, thank you for the Hicks Baltimore family page.. I had seen it or at least added the marriage image. Trying to stay focused on the Register and just adding that but now you GOT ME! I have to get the parents in there or we can not LINK the kids
P.S. Hicks caught my eye because I've spent WAY too much time on Hicks lately ... started with needing to sort out two pairs of James Hicks m Judith Collier (aunt/niece & turns out that most Hicks researchers say they married father/son). If you find yourself in amongst Virginia Hicks, let me know (earliest of the group I've been working on is Robert Hicks-5684, who was probably born about 1635 and turns up in Virginia land records in 1654).
So I think You are related to my mom, therefore I think you might be interested in joining the Huguenot Project on GEDmatch. Moms parents were famous- Earl A. Weaver-Pless and Wilma Davilla Snell from Winchester, Franklun County, Tenn . They were inducted into the Gospel Music Hall if Fame. Mom grandpa was John Ten Shillings Bell Shasteen Shasteen. I am part of a 50 person Shasteen project on Gedmatch. I wondered if you might be interested in joining the reserach group? If so, please follow the links below. Thanks, . On Ancestry Shasteen project It would be so great if you could join the Shasteen/ Chasteen/ Chastain project. Here is how:
After you have the GEDmatch kit number and uploaded the raw DNA file....You can follow these instructions: Log into your GEDmatch account at https://www.gedmatch.com/login1.php On the right side of the homepage, under DNA Applications, click on Ancestor Projects. Follow instructions within. Let me know if you need help.
INSTRUCTIONS TO JOIN NEW FACEBOOK GROUP
There is also a new Facebook group called Chastain DNA Project. This group will be a forum to discuss our matches and findings. We are a GEDmatch private project FB group and follow the privacy rules of GEDmatch. We do not repost (copy & paste) any information about any member in this FB group or GEDmatch to another FB group or website. To join the Chastain DNA Project Facebook group you must have a GEDmatch kit number, be a member of the Chastain DNA Project, and answer the questions in the request to join. You will find us at https://www.facebook.com/groups/718611882070900 . We hope to see you there!
Hi! Could you post the request on Conrad-14's profile? One of the profile managers should be able to attach him. Or you could post to G2G. Having read through the various biographies, I've concluded that I am not familiar enough with this family to say whether or not Schuffert-25 should be attached as son of Conrad-14 & Schuffert-6. The bio for Mary Clare (Conrad) Schuffert lists her children, and her son John is listed with a wife other than Catherine Hill (who is listed as Schuffert-25's wife); another son, George, is listed as born 1754 (which is the birth date for Schuffert-25). https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Schuffert-6#Research_Notes_on_John_vs._Martin_vs._John_Martin says that everything's been sorted by Schuffert-25 bio, but I still got lost. The will transcription supports a son John, but Sr/Jr does not necessarily identify father & son. Sr & Jr was used at the time in official records to distinguish men of the same name in the same area - not necessarily father/son or even uncle/nephew.
Sorry, but I just don't feel qualified to override the PPP that the US Southern Colonies Project added to the profile. (Posting a comment on Conrad-14 will send it to other leaders of the project, who may feel differently.)
Thank you for your generous help Liz. I will do as you suggested. This awful illness has oartially cooked my brain but I can always count on you for great advice. You are a special Wikitree member.
You mentioned on notes on leadership page "rehoming" of the earlier US Southern Colonies Space pages. Let me know if I can help there. I know we had a hierarchy at that time. Many I think had Jilliane'sname on them, so guess by now you have adopted them.
Thanks Mary! Let me figure out where I was on those. I know that I contacted the Louisiana/Acadian projects about the French one (haven't heard back yet). I'm also working on gathering them under a project category so we can track them better, since Jillaine was adamantly opposed to having them remain as project-managed pages (so yes, I've asked to be added as a manager on the ones I found... I think I found them all).
Thank you for your participation in October’s 2020 Source-a-thon. Your contributions helped us to clear over 57,000 profiles that needed sourcing. This makes our Shared Tree all that much better.
The 5th! Source-a-Thon will take place from the 2nd of October till the 5th of October. We really hope you will join us at our Team The Flying Dutchmen. Registering is open now HERE. More info at our Team page HERE or at our G2G-S-a-Th-Chat.
Liz, thank you for the work you did on Hugh Harry's profile, especially disconnecting him from a Brinton mother. (I just noticed this today.) This makes my line back then so much more accurate.
Thank you for all your hard work. I am rather new o Wikitree and appreciate all the hard work of those who had a lot of my ancestors up and ready to connect. Still trying to figure out some lineage brick walls. Still working on improving my sourcing, which is I am more conscious of nowadays. Which is fine, I find that a good challenge. I still have some branches, twigs to work on. Would love to work further on particular projects that interest me, when I can find more time that is. {Covid kinda making that a bit more tricky with kids in the mix ;) Looking forward to things settling down there. And getting back to normal there.} Genealogy is my big passion. Wish I had more time for it. Anyway thanks for your all your work! :)
Thanks for all the work you accomplished during our Connect-A-Thon 2020. It is amazing how many more profiles were created and added to our Shared Tree. You have every right to be pleased with your efforts!
I know......... first the Cl-a-Th now a DRP challenge. But it is our 5th Liberation Day challenge. Just to celebrate freedom and remember those that made us to live in FREEDOM! Join us please!
Thanks so very much for your participation in the spring Clean-a-thon! Every suggestion you cleared (over 500!) made our Tree that much better. The WikiTree community appreciates YOU!
How do I designate that it's a container category? I tried searching WikiTree for help on this but I must be using the wrong search terms or something. I feel like I've seen a Template that gets added to pages like this. Thank you for your assistance!
I removed the 'See also' you had added (DAR/GRS with Robert's DAR ID# AO47306). I'm a DAR member; I think that including his DAR ID# is what the below quote from their site states should not be done.
"The databases contain DAR proprietary information which should under no circumstances be redistributed to others; assembled or collected for purposes other than DAR membership or for citation in genealogical scholarship; or reproduced, published, or posted in any form whatsoever."
Working on the George Reade-10 Magna Carta trail to Lacy-284, and looking at the G2G question "How should the relationship finder work?" The posted trail from (Tailbois-7, Tailbois-8, to Talboys_of_Kyme-1 seems have been changed to ...
1. Mildred is the daughter of George Reade-10 Esq. [confident] Reade-10
2. George is the son of Mildred (Windebank) Reade [confident] Windebank-2
3. Mildred is the daughter of Frances (Dymoke) Windebanke [confident] Dymoke-8
4. Frances is the daughter of Anne (Tailboys) Carr [confident] Tailboys-43
5. Anne is the daughter of George Tailboys [confident] Tailboys-41
6. George is the son of Robert Tailboys [confident] Tailboys-39
7. Robert is the son of Elizabeth (Bonville) Tailboys [confident] Bonville-28
Should this question be amended to show the change. Might save someone else time trying to figure out the changed trail.
Thanks Liz, sounds like the best thing to do is like you said, delete Reade-10 reference to the question. I will be happy to do this only thing I never have deleted a reference to a G2G question. Would you mind doing the favor?
Thank you, Liz. I bought a book that has some pedigrees, and I was checking out the pedigree of John of Gaunt (Plantagenet-66) to see how the book lines up with WikiTree. Pedigree for John Plantagenet-66 to George Reade-10 turned out spot on, with the exception of the misstep of the G2G post, that threw me off.
I added you to John de Braose' trusted list and in the process was invited to add you to any OR ALL of the 4300 other profiles on my trusted list. This might have been more than you bargained for...
It did seem that kindness would compel me to forego this opportunity...
Thank you very much Liz! I had just responded to this information via the G2G post regarding the Gateway Ancestor. I hope that I had confirmed my understanding correctly.
I am working on them to create/edit profiles. The ancestors came from WV. Not my line but in the line of
1659. Arlo Burdette Stout(day lily and botanical gardens) 1067. HEZEKIAH MILTON STOUT 686. MILTON STOUT 345. DR HEZEKIAH STOUT
129. EZEKIEL STOUT 52. BENJAMIN STOUT 10. JONATHAN STOUT 2. RICHARD STOUT I 1. JOHN STOUT
And Two of the sons Frank D (Stout Island) and James huff (founder of University of Wisconsin) of 1173. Henry Lane Stout 743. WILLIAM STOUT 417. CAPT NATHAN STOUT 175. JOHN STOUT
60. JAMES STOUT 11. DAVID STOUT 2. RICHARD STOUT I 1. JOHN STOUT
Have two Stouts whose family immigrated to Wisconsin--one helped/founded WU and another went to New York as head of botanical garden. He made the Day Lily.

Thanks for joining Team Virginia on the 2021 Source-A-Thon. Our Team finished in 1st place by sourcing over 6,600 Profiles! That is an amazing job!!
We couldn't do it without you & look forward to you joining us on the 2022 Clean-A-Thon!

Best, David
Most of them are based on the Descendant sticker - see Template:Descendant - but the "test" ones are based on the new Template: Relationship Sticker and Template: Connection Sticker.
For more, see Space: Relationship Stickers.

Checking in re: Southern Colonies. Yes I am Team South Carolina. I know about the Southern Pioneer project being under US and having their badge, but thanks!!! Let me know if I have left out anything. Babysitting granddaughter. 😊
Anyway, I think maybe we also had a bad merge of a couple generations of John Banisters, which would explain why there were several suggestions in the family profiles related to mother/child date warnings when I checked suggestions for of Munford-60.
Lots more research needed to sort these out. I'll pick these up again on the weekend or next week - after taxes are done!
Cheers, Liz
Instead of removing 1776, could you please change it up a sticker? I see there are already 2 stickers. I think Notables could be changed to a category since the other sticker indicates he is notable in his historical importance. If you don’t agree, then leave it as it is.
Thanks!

All St Mildred Poultry (taken from original parish register) baptism 1600 Dec 7th - Elizabeth the daughter of Peter Erondell, borne the 29th November baptism 1603 Apr 17th - John the son of Peter Erondell, borne the 14th of the same burial 1606 Aug 13th - the daughter of Peter Erondell buried in the churchyard, dead borne burial 1606 Sep 4th - Elizabeth Erondell buried in the new churchyard burial 1607 Sep 6th - Maysodde the wife of Peter Erondell, buried in the south isle (sic) of the church baptism 1609 Dec 21st - Elizabeth daughter of Peter Erondell. borne 14th baptism 1611/2 Feb 9th - Joane daughter of Peter Erondell borne 5th baptism 1613 Sep 12th - Richard the son of Peter Erondell, born 7th baptism 1614/5 Jan 11th - Margaret the daughter of Peter Erondell, borne the 5th baptism 1616 Nov 8th - Sara the daughter of Peter Erondell and Dorothee uxor (wife), borne 2nd

Thank you for pruning and watering my family tree. That's awesome! A.J.
Would you please link Schuffert-25 to his mother, Conrad-14? I can't do it because of project protection. Thank you! E. McCraw.
Sorry, but I just don't feel qualified to override the PPP that the US Southern Colonies Project added to the profile. (Posting a comment on Conrad-14 will send it to other leaders of the project, who may feel differently.)
Thanks! Liz
edit - corrected the WikiTree ID for Schuffert-25

You mentioned on notes on leadership page "rehoming" of the earlier US Southern Colonies Space pages. Let me know if I can help there. I know we had a hierarchy at that time. Many I think had Jilliane'sname on them, so guess by now you have adopted them.

How do I designate that it's a container category? I tried searching WikiTree for help on this but I must be using the wrong search terms or something. I feel like I've seen a Template that gets added to pages like this. Thank you for your assistance!

I removed the 'See also' you had added (DAR/GRS with Robert's DAR ID# AO47306). I'm a DAR member; I think that including his DAR ID# is what the below quote from their site states should not be done. "The databases contain DAR proprietary information which should under no circumstances be redistributed to others; assembled or collected for purposes other than DAR membership or for citation in genealogical scholarship; or reproduced, published, or posted in any form whatsoever."
Thanks for your work on his profile.

Working on the George Reade-10 Magna Carta trail to Lacy-284, and looking at the G2G question "How should the relationship finder work?" The posted trail from (Tailbois-7, Tailbois-8, to Talboys_of_Kyme-1 seems have been changed to ...
Should this question be amended to show the change. Might save someone else time trying to figure out the changed trail.

I also redid the Magna Carta Project section a bit.
Thank you, Liz, I appreciate the work you do!

Looks like the mgr. on DeLancaster-11 is m.i.a., so you'll probably need to complete this one.

It did seem that kindness would compel me to forego this opportunity...
