Hi Dana - thank you for being a member of the Jewish Roots Project! I wanted to let you know about some new things we have going on.

- You can see new tabs at the top of our home page, where you can select topics to view or work on. You can also use our new maintenance categories - feel free to add them to your own family, or any other Jewish Roots profile, or work on the maintenance yourself, such as adding new records to profiles with only a couple sources.

-You are already in the GoogleGroups email listserv, which we are re-starting this week. We'll probably do most group chat there, but the most important things will be posted on G2G, which you will be notified about if you follow the jewish_roots tag.

-You can also join Wikitree's discord server, where we have a Jewish Roots chat channel.

-If you have ideas or suggestions for the project, feel free to reply here or send me a message.

Thank you! -Elaine, co-leader for Jewish Roots Project

Thank you for attending to the errors on Pings-33.

I wonder what your source was for the location of her death, which you added. I had entered her burial place, which would point researchers in the direction of where to look, but I always hesitate to use burial site as death location because families do move their relatives to family burial grounds even if they die elsewhere. re: the Ancestry change: I was working from another person's start and noted in my Change Explanation that I had specifically left their Ancestry references because of not wanting to eliminate their work. I didn't realize that flagged some kind of error. With the notice of your work, I went in & changed the sources to more generic format that anyone can use to find the census record in whichever repository they work with. And therefore I removed your red-lettered note warning about subscriptions being required.

My addition to her death location was simply to add the county (Dane) and country (USA) to the location that had already been entered in her profile. I make no claim that the original death location was correct. If you are more comfortable treating that location as suspect, you could mark it "Uncertain."
Thank you for clarifying. I will make the suggested change.

Thank you for adding information on the Kurth family. I am a Kurth and have not been able to trace back my fathers history. His father was Ernst August Kurth (1900 - 1957) - That's all I have....so maybe one day I will be able to connect to the information you found. Thanks for all your hard work!

Thank you Dana, for reformatting the obituary on [[Schweger-9|Gretchen (Schweger) Sousek]. I had no idea of those particular commands and will use those in the future.
Thank you Dana for all nit-picking and futzing you did to help me better understand multiple inline <ref> tags to make my biographies read smoothly. I appreciate your help!

27 Mar 2019: completed goal of reformatting Wisconsin profiles after merge. 500 since August 2018.
Thank you for adding information to Downes-753. She was the second wife of my great-grandfather. I knew her when I was a child and went to her funeral.

I didn't have much information on her and since they had no children I didn't do any further research. You are welcome to work on any of my profiles, I appreciate all the help can get.

Thank you for adding to the information on the Wait family!! They are a branch of the family, sort of?, that I didn't know much about before, so I am glad that you were able to add to their pages. Thank you very much.
