Hi! How are things going? Do you have any questions? One Month Member!
As you go farther back in your tree, it is a good idea to do a search first to see if you have a match already created on Wiki Tree before creating a new profile. And keep in mind, if you do find a match, odds are the manager is also related to that person and probably you!
There is a great question to review on G2G regarding duplicate profiles and merges. See: http://www.wikitree.com/g2g/51703/behind-merges-identifying-lowest-numbered-profile-correct
A great place to ask specific question is on G2G. Under My Wiki Tree (on of the links at top right) select G2G PROFILE. You can browse/ask/answer questions. You can also "tag" them by topic.
I am a mentor, so let me know if you have any questions! Nae
Thank you, Greg, for volunteering to help grow our worldwide family tree. We happily share our research for free. Glad you found us. :)
Our Honor Code, G2G message forum, help pages, search features, and many other useful links can be accessed from the menus on the upper right corner of most pages.
VERY IMPORTANT:
The more documents, sources, dates, and locations you provide on the profiles you create, the stronger your branches and our mutual global tree will be. If you don't know the correct date, please estimate using before or after.
Our mission is to build a global tree with just one profile per person, so please try very hard not to add any duplicates to our shared tree.
Hi, I'm Greg Vandenberg. I've been interested in personal geneology for a while now. I have put together my tree all the way to the 1500's, although I have been locked out of the other site I had my tree on because I couldn't afford the $100+/year they wanted for me to continue.... I'm very interested in helping out with this site!
Also, WikiTree Help is filled with useful information you might want to review. The help pages can be accessed through the link in the upper right hand corner of your profile page.

Ideas on what to include in a profile can be found on the Bio Ideas and Styles and Standards help pages.
If you need to describe an event, an heirloom, or a location relevant to your research, you may like to learn about Free Space Profiles.
Lastly, sometimes you'll run into unresponsive profile managers. We have a process for resolving those unfortunate situations.
If you have any questions, please ask!
