Mission
The Bahamas Project is a collaborative effort to help grow the Bahamian portion of the Global Family Tree, Members categorize profiles, contribute proper citations, and acknowledge the research of others.
The project is open to those interested in The Bahamas, but non-Bahamas profiles should NOT use the Bahamas template. The Bahamas Project also includes the Turks & Caicos Islands from 1799 to 1848 when they were administered by The Bahamas.
When using G2G to discuss research related to the Bahamas Project, please use the tag For WikiTreers interested in persons who lived in the Bahamas. (insert scope here)
Group members can take primary responsibility for a specific person, and work on merging duplicates, cleaning up profiles, adding sources, and removing incorrect information. If there isn't a particular person that interests you, you can contribute to any of these tasks on any profiles, especially those that have no group manager.
Conversations related to this project happen on G2G using the tag bahamas.
