I am interested in my family Tree, but I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing. I have most of my Father's line, but I can't seem to find my Mother's side. I hit a brick wall after I put her parents in.

I would really like to get some help on it. Her maiden name is Mitchell. Like I said, after I entered her Father's name, that was as far as I could go. Her Father's name was Mose Byrd Mitchell and her Mother's name was Bertha Shoulders.

Jennifer, you are right. They are one & the same and they need to be merged. Thank you for catching it. I don't have any idea how to go about merging them, so maybe you can help out.

I just realized I had a duplicate profile for John Willis. I think it was confusing because both Katherine and Martha Patsy are my 4thggmother and it was one of the beginning profiles I made?

Hi Randy, We are indeed cousins and I'm evidently also cousins with almost everyone in the comments section of your profile. Seems like the longer anyone is involved with genealogy, the smaller the world becomes. See ya around cuz. Mark

Hiya 12th Cousin (smile)

Take the gedmatch down to 1 and see how many chromosomes are listed. I know, not enough for a 'match' but fun to see.

The Gedmatch kit number you entered is not correct. I tried doing a compare against it on GedMatch.com and was told that it was not found. Please check it when you get a chance.

I'm looking for a connection to our family history. Most of my family was born in S.C., until they moved to Fayette County, Ala.

My Great Grandfather, James Franklin Willis was a Baptist Minister at Landmark Baptist Church in Mt. Lebannon, Al. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If you need any help getting started check out the help section from the menu, top left, or head over to the G2G forum, you might want to check out the introductory WikiTree video that a member created.

Our Mentor Team are a friendly bunch of volunteers who will be glad to help you with specific problems if you have any.

Good luck growing your branches, and thanks for offering to help with our shared tree :) Sally
