Besides two convicts, one from the Isle of Man and one from London, I have three Scottish families, one from Liverpool, one from Germany, one from New York and one from New Zealand. All arrived in Australia between 1820 and 1875. My other interests are family, Rugby and reading histories and biographies. I hope that I will be able contribute to the doings of WikiTree

Here's a link to a great step-by-step of the process including screenshots.
Because WikiTree strives to have only one profile for each person, the further back you go in your ancestry, the more likely cousins will find you and collaborate. ANY Wiki Genealogist can edit "Open" profiles (over 200 years old = open). That means even though you've created an open profile, someone else may add or correct information contained within that same profile. If you're lucky, they may even add an original source or a photo. :) Each new profile is a valued leaf on our global family tree.
