Hi WikiTreers! 

The forty-eighth week of the WikiTree Challenge is here. It features Mary Roddy, of the Applied Genealogy Institute. Our challenge is to make her ancestry on WikiTree more accurate and complete than it is anywhere else. 

It may be too late to formally register for a December challenge team, but we need every WikiTreer's help to make this a success, so please join in. If you are interested in helping, you can contact this week's captain.

This week will officially end at 8pm (EDT) on Wednesday, December 8th.

How to Participate

If you are registered, your name appears on this Google Docs spreadsheet. Please add the profile you are working on next to your name. When done, or taking a break, remove it and add Research Notes to the profile if you have any notes for the next person. Don't forget to add your interesting finds to the Space page!

You can also add notes or comments below the answer for the appropriate great-grandparent below.

For live chat we are using Discord. Contact your captain if you need access.

Points and Scoring

Here are the current scores.

If you have bounty points to claim, post a comment below the answer for the appropriate great-grandparent below.
