Hi Tony

After a long break, we are now getting the New Zealand Project back in action. Would you like to join the Kiwi Crew Discord server? This is where we are discussing how the project will be organised, though any major changes will be signposted in G2G. (Make sure you follow the new_zealand tag). There is no obligation to take part in challenges, but you may like to discuss NZ history and work with others to create quality New Zealand profiles. We’re a really friendly bunch.

Fiona - New Zealand Project Co-ordinator (Membership)

I have a heritage that provides a wealth of potential for research. My maternal gg grandfather, Alexander Black was a founding father of Auckland and a signatory to the Treaty of Waiting. While my paternal grand-mother was from the Pirirakau Hapu, with a French influence through the Bidois/Borell families.

Combined with that my grand-father was from Australia and his grand-father was a convict.

Research to date on both sides of the Tasman makes for interesting reading.

Hello, Tony,

It has been a couple of weeks since we contacted you about your participation in the New Zealand Project and we are following up to make sure you wish to remain a member and plan to contribute in the upcoming months.

If we do not hear back from you within the week, we will assume you have moved on to other things and remove you from the project. You will always be welcome to rejoin should your interests shift back in this direction.

Thank you,

Fiona ~ Volunteer Coordinator

Hello, Tony

As part of a revitalization effort for the New Zealand Project, we are checking-in with members to see if they are planning to remain active and make project-specific contributions in the upcoming months.

If you have other obligations at the moment and would like to be removed from the project at this time, you will always be welcome to rejoin if you find yourself with more time and interest later.

All of us at WikiTree would like to thank you for your contributions and hope that you are enjoying exploring your roots.

Please respond by commenting on my profile or sending a private message. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Hi, Now that you have had a little time to try WikiTree, here 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 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 will 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. Sandy ~ WikiTree Mentor

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 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.

Welcome Michael F. Harris, Volunteer Greeter

Got the family research bug about 5 years ago and have enjoyed every minute of the journey since then. Research has centered on John Robinson a convict shipped in 1819 to Tasmania, who settled in Oatlands after gaining his ToL. New Zealand based research has been on the Bidois and Borrell families who settled in Te Puna and from whom I have gained a French and Maori heritage. Main research treads are Robinson, Bidois, Borrell, Warner, Black and Truscott.

Welcome, as a guest to WikiTree! We're growing a FREE worldwide family tree, striving for ONE collaborative profile per person.

To start:

1. Our Honor Code is a very important part of why our community is such a friendly place to grow your family free so please take some time to read it.

2. Feel free to ask a question at our G2G forum. Our help pages, menu top right -very useful information.

3. Check out the Family Tree & Tools tab at the top of your profile!
