The Connectors Project focuses on connecting loose branches and twigs to our Global Family Tree.
Many of us are able to connect to the trunk of the Global Family Tree right when we join, as we have cousins who are already here. Others, it takes some time and effort, and that's where Connectors come in.
Connectors work on open unconnected families and profiles and research to source and connect them so we're all one tree, rather than many separate ones.
With due to privacy, our project focus is primarily on profiles of non-living people.
There are many ways to get involved with our project including:
The Connectors Challenge, a monthly race to see how many already existing unconnected profiles you can connect to the tree in 30 days. Winners get nifty badges and bragging rights. (You can participate in the challenge and not be a Connector, and vice versa.)- The Lost and Found Project, which works to reconstruct GEDCOMs that were broken apart upon upload.
- Working with Connecting Buddies who link Connectors together to best use their areas of expertise to make connections.
If you like making connections and helping others with their family research, the Connectors project is the place for you. Just answer this question below and we'll get you a badge and a welcome!
