Biography

My biography should be entered when there is no further risk of identity theft.

Note that the Prendergast/Killoran and Gariepy/Geiger ancestors were originally all Roman Catholic. That started to change in my own family line with the post-WW II generation, some of whom abandoned all church connections, and some may have acquired Protestant church connections.

In the case of Prendergast/Pendergasts of this family who moved to the U.S. in the 19th century, personal views and/or marriage to a Protestant wife also changed the family church adherence of those descendants. (See James Prendergast/Pendergast and Thomas Deligney Prendergast, both born in Prince Edward Island.)

Researchers may expect that the Anderson line, like their Protestant ancestors, will have had Presbyterian, Methodist or United Church of Canada declarations in censuses and other official records.

thank you, Joanna for editing the Profile of my grandfather, Edward T. McDonnell (1905-1967)

Joanna, the "full FAG source" is no longer used. There is a template that has been around for a while, see

https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Find_A_Grave

I know about the template. I use it when the source is for another family member and I wish to avoid the FAG compare 'suggestion'. However, I like to see the data that is in the full FAG citation, so I always add the full citation as a rule. I will take a look at the HELP entry.

Sometimes there is a date conflict between what is on the gravestone and what is in the other records. Then it is a judgement call as to whether to put up with WikiTree flagging the memorial, and call it FALSE, or avoiding it by using the template.

The template is there to save you time. In theory, the entry number is a link, whiich will take you to the page on FAG. I know what you mean about conflicts. Wikitree state that FAG may be wrong , then complain if you rely on the BDM registration instead. I have had them argue with Wikipedia and with the family's own death notice to prefer a date on a statue, which was wrong.

Hello Joanna, thanks for tidying up the text in one of my recent profiles.

Please note, I did restore a segment of text relating to their son's presence in the household 'on census night'. Even though I expect they only had the one child so far, I've found that sometimes there might be other children spending census night with grandparents or other relatives, a wet nurse, or even in hospital. So I always clarify 'on census night' when reporting children in the household snapshot. Regards, Christine.

In one of my families, the mother had died in childbirth, so a wet nurse was needed, and was mentioned on the census form.

Thank you for cleaning up my Prendergast entries. I’m new at this, but am learning.

The merging of McGillis & McIntosh may be warranted but then again may be coincidence. Is there a more secure

future towards merging?

Thanks for the amendments to my tree. Being new to this site, I am learning how to enter information correctly on the

tree.

Hi there, Joanna!

Hi Joanna

Thanks for taking the Pre-1700 Quiz!

Pre-1700 ancestors can be shared by many descendants, so collaboration is essential. You can learn more about joining the community in How To #3 and in the Project FAQ.

The Germany, Ireland, and United States Projects may fit your research focus. If not, use the Pre-1700 Projects list to find other possibilities. Review the project page to learn about resources and guidelines as well as how to collaborate with the project members.

Have questions? Let me know by using the "reply" link under my comments or by clicking my name to visit my profile. From there you can leave a comment or send a private message.

Hi Joanna,

I found a photo and some info for Jewitt-203. I think his first name is Oliver judging from his UofT bio. Laurie

posted by Laurie Cruthers
Laurie,

Olver Jewitt's first name is OLVER, not Oliver. Olver was his mother's maiden name, and it was misspelled as Oliver quite frequently. I will see if I have a scanned portrait with the name written on it; there is certainly a physical photo in the family album. I will also add a note to the bio. All the places that it is spelled Oliver are the errors, based on the assumption that there is an 'i' missing in the name.

Aha. Well, that makes sense. Thanks for putting the note on the bio.

Hi Joanna,

It's good to see you active at WikiTree again. You might be interested in some of the tips and tricks that we have included in the How-Tos that we share with new members these days. They were created long after you became a member so you never received them.

Thanks for having a big heart and adopting the Orphaned Profiles. This After Adopting Orphans FAQ explains the special attention those profiles need.

If you have WikiTree questions, I am here to help.

Debi

P.S. If links do not work in an email from WikiTree, try them from the comment section on your profile page.

Hi Joanna, I've done a little work on Neil O'Hanley's profile. His parents' profiles are now attached to his with the correct spelling. They're orphaned, so you may want to adopt them. Cheers, Laurie

Hi! I would recommend Evidence Explained as a great place to look on how to source certain items you may use. Hope this helps! :)

You are now a confirmed member, and you can get started adding your family members.

As we've said, WikiTree is quite different from other genealogy sites. So, we've put together a guided tour to help you learn how to use it. Your first stop is How to Start Climbing Our Tree.

Tomorrow, you'll hear from a Mentor who will check in to see how you're doing and answer any questions you might have.

Next week, you'll get another message with your next stop on the guided tour.

You can also meet some of our members by joining in the fun with our Question of the Week in the G2G forum: Have you discovered any real characters in your branches?

Welcome!

Gariepy-13 and Gariepy-281 appear to represent the same person because: the middle name and decade of birth are correct

Hello Joanna,

Welcome to the WikiTree family!

WikiTree is different than other genealogy websites because our goal is to have one profile per person, and that means we share ancestors and work together as a BIG collaborative team! I hope you'll love it as much as I do!

The email we just sent has helpful links to get you started. When you confirm your email address, you’ll be given an opportunity to volunteer to help document our collective family history.

Use the Tags and comments to tell us about your genealogical interests.

When you volunteer, one of our Greeters will confirm your membership. Then you'll be able to add your family to the tree!

Charlotte (Georgia, USA)

P.S. I'm happy to answer any questions!
