I live in the Manawatu, New Zealand. After finishing secondary school I worked at Carthew's Lotto and Post Shop for 3 years, before becoming a Court Registry Officer and Deputy Registrar at the Palmerston North Family Court a position I held for 14 years, until I was hit by a car (16/04/2015) while I walked across a controlled crossing. I suffered a severe traumatic brain injury (TBI), so the Court had to medically retire me from the job. I am the mother of Donovan Nash Smith (09/03/2008) and Clara Maree Russell (11/03/2013). I now enjoy spending time with my children and my friends and family. In 2016, I submitted my TBI story and it was published in Amy Zellmer's book - Surving Brain Injury: Stories of Strength and Determination.

This week we have your last stop on the guided tour. Hopefully, you're feeling like a WikiTree pro! If not, you can always revisit the tour stops via the comment boxes on the right side of your profile.
You've covered a lot of ground the past few weeks. Today, we want to give you just a few more tools that can take you even deeper into the WikiTree forest without getting lost: How to Dig a Little Deeper.
As always, your questions are welcome!

You may have been hard at work getting connected to family members who are already here and adding those who were missing. You probably have at least a few profiles that you manage now.
There's a fast and easy way to access those profiles using the Watchlist. So, this week we're going to look at How to Manage Your Watchlist.
Please let one of us know if you have questions! Just click my name above the comment, then ask in the comment section of my page. We want to help!
Thanks, WikiMessenger Cindy
PS Good work so far! Have you noticed on your ancestor profiles on the bottom right is "Research" where you can get sources and more information? Give it a try sometime!
You have been here for a while now! We hope your profiles are starting to come together and that you've enjoyed getting to know all of us a little better.
You're probably getting a good feel for the collaborative nature of WikiTree by now. We know that collaboration isn't always easy. So, we've put together a few pointers that can make working in this type of environment a little easier: How to be a Successful WikiTreer.
Have questions? We want to help! Click the name above any of your comments, then ask in the comment section of that volunteer's page.

It's time for your next stop on the guided tour!
This week, we'd like to show you How to Join in the Community. There's no shortage of opportunities to get involved through social media, our forum, and projects.
Be sure to check out the One Name Studies Project to see if anyone has started a project for one of the surnames in your family. Don't see one? Follow the instructions for starting your own!

You've been here a week now, and we hope you enjoyed your first stop on your guided tour of WikiTree and were able to make good use of the things you learned.
Our next stop will give you some pointers on how to make your profiles stand out: How to Make the Most of a Profile.
As always, your questions are welcome!

I just wanted to check in with you to see how things were going. If you have any questions about WikiTree please feel free to contact me. Michelle~WikiTree Mentor
I wanted to let you know that we have a New Zealand Project. You might be interested in joining once you have settled into WikiTree. See https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/374070/you-have-interest-new-zealand-join-us-the-new-zealand-project
Thanks again for joining and good luck with your research. Maria
As we've said, WikiTree is quite different from other genealogy sites. So, we've put together a guided tour to help you learn how to use it. Your first stop is How to Start Climbing Our Tree. Next week, you'll get another message with your next stop on the guided tour.
You can also meet some heading over to the G2G forum. Feel free to jump in, introduce yourself, and answer our Question Of The Week: Do you have any heroic volunteers in your branch?
Tomorrow, you'll hear from a Mentor who will check in to see how you're doing and answer any questions you might have.

The email we just sent has helpful links to get you started.
WikiTree is different from other genealogy websites because our goal is to create one big family tree with ONE PROFILE PER PERSON. This means we all work together on our shared ancestors.
When you confirm your email address, youll be given an opportunity to volunteer to help document our collective family history. Use the Tags and comments to tell us about your genealogical interests. It can be a name, like SMITH, or a place, like AUSTRALIA. Be sure to click the "Enter Tag(s) and Volunteer" button when you finish!
After you volunteer, one of us will be by to confirm your membership. Then you'll be able to add your family!
Hope to see you soon!
Vicky
