How do I add 1880 census black heritage Union County, SC as a category? The spreadsheet is not yet created.

Question

I created https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Gossett-1616 and his wife, Lina or Liddy. They are listed on the 1880 Census for Union County, SC. This spreadsheet has not yet been created. How do I add a category for them, USBH project, 1880, Union, SC? Or are there better categories/tags?

Answer 1

Hi Cindy, you don't need to worry about getting them added to a spreadsheet if it doesn't exist yet. They should show up as an existing profile when that county is worked on.

Please add {{African-American Sticker}} to all African American profiles below the biography heading as this allows our project to find them more easily and count them in our numbers.

Some categories you could add:

[[Category: USBH Heritage Exchange]] for anyone born before 1865. 

[[Category: US Black Heritage Project, Needs Sources]] if you are only adding minimal sources

Union County, South Carolina location category.
