Hello Michael,

It has been a good while since the Magna Carta Project asked members to check-in. We are interested now in updating our membership list and making sure that it accurately reflects our current membership. We would greatly appreciate your timely response to the following questions:

1. Would you like to continue as a member of the Magna Carta Project?

2. Do you have any interest in taking a more active role in the project and, if so, what might you be interested in doing?

3. If your interests have changed and/or you no longer have time to participate in the project, would you like to remain a member of the google group and continue receiving updates about project activities?

If you do wish to continue as a project member, please either post a response to this message or send me a private email. If we do not hear from you by October 16th we will assume you are exploring different interests and no longer wish to be involved with the project.

with warmest regards,

Jen, Magna Carta Project co-leader

Hi Michael,

I see your comments about "Murray" stickers/templates and how some managers don't want them added. I am always grateful for any added notations that honor my family heritage! Be my guest. Also note the Ryan Wadleigh link on many Murray's.

Hi, I just wanted to remind you to add the HUGUENOT tag to the tags you follow. It is a 2022 requirement of the Huguenot Migration Project for all badged members. Thank you. Pam Kreutzer, co-leader Huguenot Migration Project

Hi! The template for the Colorado Sticker was recently changed (default text is now "was a Coloradan" - living=y still works for changing "was" to "is"). If you would like to edit the default text, it now has that capability. See Template: Colorado Sticker for details. No need to do anything if you're ok with the sticker's text being "Michael Thomas is a Coloradan".

Cheers, Liz

P.S. The Texas Sticker was updated in 2020.

Hi Michael!

It's time for our annual Scotland Project check-in!

This year we are hoping to learn what our membership would like to accomplish over the next 12 months. In case you aren't aware, this year is WikiTree's ""Year of Connections"" and the Project's leadership would like to contribute to this in as many ways as possible.

We would appreciate it if you would share your thoughts and ideas with us on how we can accomplish this goal. We would also appreciate it if you would provide some feedback on our existing goals, including:

• If you have not yet signed up to help on one of the project's teams, which team(s) would you be interested in joining?
• How often should we provide a Project Newsletter?
• Have you participated in the Tartan Trail? If not, is this something you'd be interested in doing?
• Do you have a question(s) that we could add to a Frequently Asked Questions page?
• Any suggestions or ideas you have on ways to improve the Scotland Project in general

We continue to communicate with our Project members via Google Group (official) and Discord (unofficial), as well as G2G. You may also reach out to any of the Project leaders via WikiTree's internal messaging system at any time.

Thank you for all you do to help the Scotland Project become a knowledge hub for Scottish genealogical research! We wish you all the best in 2022!

Sincerely, Amy Gilpin on behalf of the Scotland Project Leaders

Hi Michael!

Thanks for contributing to Puritan Great Migration profiles over the last six months. Every little bit helps, so please keep those edits coming!

Like all WikiTree projects we check in with team members twice per year and it's that time again. Please respond within the next two weeks to let me know:

1. If you'd like to continue as a PGM project team member
2. If you're happy with the team you're on (Research and/or Profile Improvement) or if you'd like to make a change
3. Optionally, what you like since the reboot back in May or what you think could be improved. This could be something about Discord, or Google Groups, or managed profile spreadsheets, or challenge participation or really anything. If you like everything the way it is, you can let me know that too :)

If you'd like to tell me about a particular project or family you're working on, I'd love to hear about that as well.

Please respond to this message by posting a reply below or sending me a private message on WikiTree. I look forward to hearing from you.

Many thanks!

Hello

It’s time for a Project check-in!

Scotland Project Leaders check in with you at least once a year to see how you are doing. With the changes happening around the world, we understand that life is hectic right now.

What are you planning to work on for the Scotland Project this year? Are you happy with the team(s) you part of, or would you like to make some changes?

This time round, we’re also looking for feedback on the use of Google Group and Discord. Do you use one or both of these? If you don’t use either of them, what is the best way to ensure you receive Project communications? If you would like to join us on Google Group or Discord, let us know in your response.

As part of an annual check-in for the WikiTree US Presidents Project we are asking members if they are planning to continue their contributions to the project. We are establishing a page where everyone can identify the President or Vice President that they wish to manage. Just respond to this message to let me know 1) Are you planning to continue with the Project and 2) do you have a specific President or Vice President that you are interested in.

Michael,

I'm interested in the Bavaria Team and I noticed that you're listed as the team leader. I've been researching the Yanker family, who came to Arkansas from the Waldkirchen area in 1881. I've traced ancestors (Janker, Jäncker, Jänckher) through the Passau Catholic archives (matricula-online.eu) back to the late 1600s and I'd be happy to contribute and share what I've learned if this would be useful to the team.

Most of my research has been done through baptism, marriage, and death registers, so I don't have a lot of context beyond dates and names, and because of that, I'd be very interested in learning more about the history of that region between 1650-1880s to expand my knowledge of what life might have been like during that time and to help understand what might have caused them to move around and eventually leave the area in 1881.

Hi Michael,

This is just to check in with you about the Ambassadors Project. Are you still interested in participating? The email we have for you on the projects google group is bouncing back. I also sent a private message and haven't heard anything.

Hope all is well with you and look forward to hearing back. If you can send me a private message, I can get you added back to the google group!

Hi Michael,

As you may have seen, we have been doing some restructuring in the US Southern Colonies Project and are now organising ourselves into different teams. We have also changed the criteria for membership. Please have a look at the new project pages, and let me know whether you would like to remain in the project and, if so, which team(s) you would like to be in.

Please can you also send me your e-mail address. I can then make sure you are introduced to your Team Leaders and are in the Google Group.

Please note that it is a requirement for membership in the US Southern Colonies Project that you respond to these check-ins. We’re really excited for the future of the project and hope that you decide to be a part of it with us moving forwards.

Many thanks,

Susie, US Southern Colonies Project Co-Leader

Thanks, Bobbie Scotland Project Co-Leader

Hello

My name is Amy. I'm a co-Leader of the Scotland Project. As you may have heard, we have merged the Scottish Clans project into the Scotland Project. I am contacting you today to find out if you are interested in continuing with us under this new format. If you would like to go forward on the Scottish Clans Team, please reply and let me know which clans you have been working on or would like to work on. I look forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely, Amy Gilpin

Hello,

As one of the co-leaders of the European Aristocrats project, I'm messaging to inform you that we are removing the "House Assignments" from our project structure. You are absolutely still welcome to work on the profiles from the families that you chose, we are simply removing the official House Assignments as, for the most part, people choose to work on whichever profiles interest them. We're glad to have you in the project and we hope that you continue to work with us!

Regards, Amy Utting
