My tree here is far from complete, and may have some errors. A more current and expansive version (but always a work in progress - never trust an entry without sources) is here: https://www.ancestry.com/family-tree/tree/102313594/family/pedigree?cfpid=220015170832. I'm always happy to hear from cousins & will try to get back to you as soon as possible.

My paternal line, McDonald, goes back to Kilkenny, Ireland and to Skye, Scotland before that. This is my greatest interest, and the most challenging (of course). We are somewhat unique among McDonalds in that we are I haplogroup, not descended from Somerled but from a Gillespie family that were his contemporaries. I encourage all McDonald men to have their Y-DNA tested at FTDNA.com, and would love to hear from any McDonald descendants.

Hi!

Just checking in with a few quick tips:

Free Space pages are wiki pages for supplementing your family history. They can be used to profile anything of significance such as a special pet, a meaningful event, a school you attended, a family heirloom .... They're "anything pages".

Not sure what to include in a profile? Check out our Biography Ideas and Styles and Standards help pages.

Lastly, sometimes you'll run into unresponsive profile managers. We have a process for resolving those unfortunate situations.

If you have any questions, please ask!

Michelle ~ WikiTree Mentor

Hi Kelly,

Me again. If you have any brick walls, collaboration might help them 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.

There's also a brickwall tag in the G2G forum: brickwall

Kind regards, Ludwig Kraayenbrink WikiTree Greeter volunteer

Have fun and ask for help if you need it! WikiTree members are always eager to offer guidance to a fellow genealogist.

Hi Kelly,

A warm welcome to the WikiTree family! The initial email from us has helpful links that will get you started on WikiTree, which is not like any genealogy site you’ve ever used and it is FREE. WikiTree is different because our goal is to have one profile per person, and that means we all work together as a BIG collaborative team!

What brings you to WikiTree? Do you have research you’d like to share? Are you interested in how your family fits into the big tree? When you confirm your email address, you’ll have an opportunity to volunteer and tell us about your genealogical interests.

Once you volunteer, one of our Greeters will be happy to confirm your membership, and you’ll be on your way!

We’re really glad you’re here. More importantly, have fun growing your family tree and connecting to persons with the same interest.

Ludwig :)
