I see that you just did the Pre-1700 Self-Certification. That's great! Is there a particular time period, location, or topic you're interested in? Maybe you have some historically-significant ancestors? Participation in a project is strongly encouraged for those wishing to edit Pre-1700 profiles. Be sure to also check out our Volunteer Hub to see our projects that really need new members!
Let me know, and I can help you figure out if there's a project that might interest you. Welcome aboard, we are glad to have you!
Would you please explain your numbers at the front of your name ? You should remove the numbers and just have your first name, married surname and Maiden name if married. Then one of the greeters will drop by and confirm you a new member of WikiTree.
You can find more information about how we use names on our Name Fields help page.
A warm welcome to the WikiTree family! The initial email from us has helpful links that will get you started on WikiTree, which is not like any genealogy site youve ever used and it is FREE. WikiTree is different because our goal is to have one profile per person, and that means we all work together as a BIG collaborative team!
What brings you to WikiTree? Do you have research youd like to share? Are you interested in how your family fits into the big tree? When you confirm your email address, youll have an opportunity to volunteer and tell us about your genealogical interests.
Once you volunteer, one of our Greeters will be happy to confirm your membership, and youll be on your way!
Were really glad youre here. More importantly, have fun growing your family tree and connecting to persons with the same interest.

WikiTree members are always eager to offer guidance to a fellow genealogist so ask for help if you need anything.
If you have WikiTree-specific problems you can contact a Mentor? at the Mentors Project.
Take a look at our Question of the Week: Do you set weekly genealogical goals? If so, what do you want to accomplish this week?
Looking for some great ways to help out our collective effort? The Volunteers Needed page is the place to go!
