We are fourth cousins twice removed. Lydia Bishop was my third great-grandmother.

Thanks for the note about Swift's Landing/Palmyra. I've changed the location in the marriage record and made a note in the profile.

RICHARD.... I am not sure what you are trying to tell me ... we have two different "Caleb Bishops" : Bishop-1153 is the son of Samuel and Bishop-9593 is the son of Ebenzer ..... Hence two different wives: 1153 married Keziah Hibbard &

9593 married Abigail Parmalee.

Some of my relatives don't use email, but instead write to each other using facebook. That makes it difficult to invite them to WikiTree by editing their profiles.

Hello Richard

I see that you just did the Pre-1700 Self-Certification. That's great! Is there a particular time period, location, or topic you're interested in? Maybe you have some historically-significant ancestors? Participation in a project is strongly encouraged for those wishing to edit Pre-1700 profiles. I see you have several surnames for tags. Have you checked out the One Name Studies project? The current leaders for that are http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Lockwood-1016 and http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Andrus-373. They would be happy to get you started. Let me know if you need any help!

Hi!

Now that you have had a little time to try WikiTree, there are a few more features you may find useful.

Ideas on what to include in a profile can be found in Styles and Standards, including some tips on writing biographies.

If you need to describe an event, an heirloom or a location relevant to your research, you may like to learn about Free Space Profiles.

Lastly, sometimes you'll run into unresponsive profile managers. We have a process for resolving those unfortunate situations.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask via my profile page.

Richard, thanks for your note about adding sources. Our practice is to leave the Unsourced template on our ancestor profiles until we have time to add the sources. There's a nice discussion on our G2G forum about the different ways we approach adding profiles and sources, and how we should relax and give each other a break. : )

Leaving the Unsourced tag allows fellow members to drop by and add a great source to our ancestors' profiles on our shared global tree. It's a great way to promote collaboration, and shouldn't be taken as a note that there's no source to back up your statement, just that you haven't had time to add it yet.
