appalachia - Notables - categorization

A Notable of Appalachia is a person whose work/life was specifically remarkable and pertaining to Appalachia. Example: John M Ehle Jr.
A Notable just being born or lived in Appalachia does not necessarily qualify as an Appalachian Notable.

Native Americans are not considered Appalachians (although there are some exceptions - if in doubt, check with the profile manager and/or the Native Americans Project).

We require all Appalachia Notables to be submitted to the Appalachia Project via this form.

All Appalachia Notables AND Appalachia Project Managed / Project Protective Profles must have on the Profile's Trusted List:

wikitree-appalachia-project@googlegroups.com and the Project Box {{Appalachia}} above the ==Biography== line.
