Hi again,

I sent you a message a couple of weeks ago on behalf of the Germany Project and have not yet heard back from you. I hope you are well!

If I don’t hear back from you by the end of April, I will assume you no longer wish to be a member of the Germany Project and I’ll go ahead and remove you from our member roster. You are, of course, welcome to rejoin at any time via our G2G sign-up post.

Best wishes,

Traci ~ Germany Project co-leader

Hi Traci. It’s been nearly two years. I had to set aside research for a time. I’m keeping up with seven active grandkids! I’m getting started again finally.

Hi,

The Germany Project Leaders are doing their semi-annual check-in with all project members and we want to verify that you’re still interested in being a member of the Project. Please respond by private message and let me know.

Are you currently working with one of our Sub-projects or Teams? If not, take a look at our main Project page for a full list. We recently launched a new Profile Improvement Team and are seeking new team members. Let me know if you’re interested.

We really appreciate your contributions on WikiTree, and thank you for all your hard work. If you have any questions, please ask. We would also love to hear any feedback you may have for the project.

I look forward to hearing from you soon!

Hi Lawrence,

Thank you for adding your DNA Test to your profile on WikiTree. Getting Started with DNA will tell you more about how DNA kits are used on WikiTree.

DNA at WikiTree provides a visual way for you to find others who have tested and have the potential of having common ancestors. To get the best results, you need to continue adding sourced profiles for your ancestors until you can connect to existing profiles in WikiTree. If you have exhausted what you know on one line, try a different one. 24 hours after you connect to an existing profile, your test will have populated on the profiles of your ancestors and their descendants, where others with potential matches may also appear.

Let me know if you have any questions, and have fun!

PS One of our mentors created a tutorial for the GEDCOMpare process that others found very helpful. I hope that you will too.

Hi Lawrence

As you have been a member of WikiTree for a few weeks now I thought I would check in to see how you are getting on with the site.

Has the New Member How-To been helpful or left you with any questions?

I am here to help with any problems or queries you may have. To contact me, be sure to use the "reply" link for this comment so that I will be notified. You can also click my name to send a private message, or post a comment on my profile page.

Sometimes links don't work in emails. If that's happened to you, check the public comments on your profile. The links will work from there.

Hello Karen,

I've been doing well with the site and I am introducing my work to multiple cousins hoping to get them involved and contributing. The How-To was very helpful and there is still much for me to learn. After adding multiple ancestors and collateral lines I had to pause a bit but I am beginning to pick up where I left off. Thanks for reaching out to me!

Hi Lawrence

Peggy, Lothar are I are here to help whenever you need ut

Take care Karen

Hi Karen. I just reviewed your profile page and I am amazed. I will try to follow your example. I know I can learn much from you.

Hi Lawrence,

Thank you so much 😊. I am here to help you whenever you need it, and I also learn from some of the questions I am asked, so ask anything you need to, and have fun

Take care Karen

HI, Lawrence, I see you added the Acadia tag and have Acadian roots. I am co-leader of the Acadian project and offer any assistance you might need connecting to your family. We have over 12,000 Acadians already profiled on WikiTree. Most people can be connected directly to their Acadian family when you get back into the 1750's or so.

If you use the search box at the top of each page, you can find all the profiles for a particular name. If you don't find the one you are looking for and think someone needs to be added, it would be really helpful to contact me first. I can often find the existing profiles because names are often spelled in different crazy ways. WikiTree really doesn't want duplicate profiles - this is a one profile per person site and we all share them. The Acadian project uses standard names and locations and we have lots of sources. When you get to this point, I'll send you links to the info.

Welcome! Cindy Bourque Cooper, Co-Leader, Acadian Project

Thank you Cindy! I am looking forward to getting the information I have entered and connecting with other researchers. I'm going a bit slow in order to get familiar with WikiTree a bit but I have Hebert, Cormier, Richard, Martin, and Bourque ancestors among others. Thanks so much for the offer to help! I know I will be reaching out to you in the near future!

Welcome Lawrence,

I am pleased to confirm and welcome you to the WikiTree family, your contributions will go a long way to joining the world together.

I would suggest starting with the New Member How-To pages, they will save you a lot of time and frustration.

I am here to answer any question you have, no matter how trivial you may think it is. There is no such thing as a silly question. Please add as much information as you can, it all helps to turn a “name” back into a person. I hope you enjoy the site.

Happy tree climbing

Thank you Lothar. I am excited about being able to begin contributing. I will definitely start with the How-To pages though I must admit I'm having to resist the temptation to dive in.

You are very welcome, it is nice to have you here with us. I hope you like what you see here. Any problems or questions, please let me know.

Take care

I've been doing research for years now so I have much information to enter. I'm a bit concerned about using gedcom import because I don't want to dump a bunch of data and then have to go back and match existing profiles, etc. Do you have any suggestions?
