Welcome back Jim ! I hope you discover as much about your family as I have about mine over the years.
You joined long before we started sharing the New Member How-To pages with members. It has some quick tips on working with both the Wiki pages and our other members.
I see that you have uploaded a GEDCOM. The GEDCOM will not automatically populate your tree, it generates a GEDCOMpare report. The GEDCOMpare process guide has tips on how to use the data in your file most efficiently.
If you have questions about how WikiTree works, let me know. To contact me, log into WikiTree, and go to your profile. Use the Reply link below my comment to be sure that I will be notified.

Please note we're trying to build one Collaborative Tree which means ONE profile per person. It is important to ensure no duplicates are entered as you add Profiles to WikiTree.
If you'd like any help, see the help section from the menu, top right, or visit the G2G forum. You might want to check out this 5-minute introductory video a member created.
Our Mentor Team is a friendly bunch of volunteers who will be glad to help you.Thank you for helping to build our shared tree!
I have been doing genealogy for 20 years now. It is only since my wife & I retired last year that I have been devoting time to it.
I have been a fan of wikipedia since it began and I hope that wikitree works as well. I am in agreement with your honour code and promise to abide by it.
Thanks
