Thanks for volunteering to help grow our one world tree.
Please drop into our friendly Genealogist to Genealogist (G2G) forum to introduce yourself to other WikiTreers - you can access the G2G by selecting G2G Profile from your My WikiTree menu at the top right of most pages.
WikiTree can be a bit overwhelming at first, so don't hesitate to post your questions in the G2G.
Good luck with connecting your leaves and branches to our big tree,
I see that you are looking for information on your family. If you are just looking you don't need to Volunteer. You will find the People Search under FIND in the menus, upper right of this page. You can also ask questions in the G2G forum.
If you meant to Volunteer to help grow this wonderful collaborative Tree, please leave a note to that effect. We would love to have you!
I noticed you uploaded a GEDCOM. Here's a link to a great step-by-step of the process including screenshots that you might find helpful.
If you have any brick walls, collaboration might help bust through. Because WikiTree has only one profile for each person, the further back you go in your ancestry, the more likely cousins will find you and help out. ANY Wiki Genealogist can edit "Open" profiles (over 200 years old = open). There's also a brickwall tag in the G2G forum: brickwall
Congratulations, you have now been a WikiTree member for one month! Here are a few ways to dive in even deeper:
Let me know if I can be of help, including with your GEDCOM.

The help pages give lots of information about the process, best to start with 'Before you import a GEDCOM'.
