Pip Sheppard ~ WikiTree Appreciation Team
I am not much of a Wiki Tree er, I don't know how to add sources to Wiki Tree but I have added ancestors to your tree from Family Search. I pieced together the puzzle there and many sources appear in Family Search if you would like to go back and add the sources to your tree in Wiki Tree. If you don't care to you can let them disappear from Wiki Tree if you don't think that they are your ancestors.
Thanks,
Dewey J. Levie

"Sources are critically important for genealogy. Some even say that genealogy without sources is mythology. Even if you're just a casual family historian recording modern family history, you will be helping future genealogists by listing where the information you've added came from."
If you have pre-1700's ancestors to add, please read our Pre-1700 profiles info. Please, be sure to include a list of the sources used, on each profile you add.
If you need any help getting started check out the Help Index or the G2G forum - Good luck growing your branches, Patt
