Victoria VanAllen

Thank you for the review of the Woods links that I placed on her profile. I am just now working on this path of my tree and becoming familiar with the persons.

Hello,

I am a WikiTree DNA Project Volunteer Helper. I wanted to let you know that when you post DNA test information on a WikiTree profile, WikiTree needs to be able to see the profile Family Tree Tab (top of WikiTree Profile) to make DNA connections down the ancestral lines.

I would like to suggest that you consider changing the privacy level on this profile and all of the ancestors to be at a level that allows everyone to see the Family Tree tab. Click the "Privacy" tab and set your level to "Private with public tree" or "Private with public biography and tree".

For further information on the available Privacy levels needed to facilitate this, please see: Wikitree privacy controls

Thank you, Meghan

Hi

Wish you a Happy New Year. May 2018 bring you all you need to be happy.

Congratulation for adding your contributions in December. Whatever the quantity of your contributions, they all count. As I always say "Quality is better than quantity" to make a great family tree.

Thank you for being a Wikitreer,

Guy Constantineau - Wikitree leader

Hi Victoria,

I've added some information I came across on William D. Bowen. I added the War of 1812 sticker before I remembered I should have asked first! Sorry about that. Please remove if you're not a fan. Thanks, Laurie

Victoria, we have launched a Sheldon One Name Study Project. Check us out here.

Sheldon One Name Study Project

Good morning, Victoria. Thank you for your interest in the Van Allen project. I am just getting off the ground, and will be entering information in for some time. I would love to find out if the NJ branches of the Van Allen family are related to the NY branches that settled in the area of Kinderhook, NY. Before my uncle, Lawrence Van Allen died, he did do a DNA test on 23 and me.com. I am on Gedmatch, and wondered if you had a profile there so that we could compare. I am M541457 there if you are on there, and his profile is M014644. It is good to be in contact with another Van Allen researcher!

Hi Victoria,

You recently proposed a merge of two Hannah Bird profiles. Thanks for finding and proposing the merge. However, you added a birth date, death date and death place to one of the profiles. I'm sure you had a source for the information, but you did not add the source when you added the info. With the added info, I will approve the merge request, but now I will have to repeat the research that you already did to find the B and D. Please remember to add your sources when you add info. That will save everyone time and frustration. Also, you added a death place in 1751 that included USA. The United States did not exist at that time, so this addition is automatically added to the Error Report. If you use dates prior to the American Revolution, please don't add USA. Thanks, Vic

Good day -- I believe that Merriam-13 is "somewhere" in my line of ancestors. I noticed your comment in March 2016. I am Certainly No Expert, but I found a couple of possible intriguing entries in Find-A-Grave which hint that he might might have been married more than once. Alice Apse is in there somewhere... I have not contacted the Profile Manager (yet??), because this level of research is Very Much out of my league.

Offered in a spirit of "Hope This Helps"!! Thank you for your interest...

Hi,

I believe that we are cousins. Can you please test our two ID's and advise me of our connection? Thanks!

Hi Victoria, I went ahead and approved the merge on Lydia (Everest) Mix. Because I really haven't figured out how the footnoting functions work, I have not tried to clean up the profile post-merge. I would be happy to do it, although, it might end up looking cleaner if you or someone more skilled with footnotes did it. Thanks.
