New member introducing myself

Question

Hi.  My name is Tom Warren. I am new to WikiTree but have been a Family Tree Maker and Ancestry user for a long time. My tree is heavily source (by Ancestry standards anyway) and I have done quite a bit with DNA and documenting MRCA for my matches.  My paternal line leads to Prince Edward Island shortly after the French were expelled.

My goal on WikiTree is to add my Warren work as well as other early PEI families to which I am related. Hopefully I can help some others while extending my own ancestry.

I have created a few profiles from a partial GEDCOM file to iron out a process, and figure out what to bring over, and how to present it. Please be kind it's still kinda ugly.

Welcome! My little piece of advice is if to work slowly. If you have data in your GEDCOM about some family members but don't have all the info (common with siblings), feel free to add them to the text of the profile and make a needs profiles created category (https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Needs_Profiles_Created). That way you can have the information around when you want to take on the project, but don't have to create a bunch of profiles with minimal information.
