I am so blessed that you are a Legacy Heir. I hope to have you with me in July for the Connect-a-thon.

Registration has begun for the April thon. Remember to look for the Legacy Heirs’ section and post in there. Here is the link: https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/1717455/have-you-registered-for-our-april-2024-connect-a-thon-yet

The team chat is located here: https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/1712660/legacy-heirs-april-2024-connect-a-thon-team-chat

Thank you so much for being a Legacy Heir! I am truly blessed for you all.

Registration has begun for the January thon. Remember to look for the Legacy Heirs’ section and post in there. Here is the link: https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/1674015/have-you-registered-for-the-january-2024-connect-a-thon-yet

Registration begins soon for the January thon. I will be reminding you when it is time to register, but I have some news that will be helpful when that time comes. I have been told that we will be trying a new registration system. When you go in to register, it will not be just making a comment as in the past. The new system will have sections for each team. You will just find the Legacy Heirs one and post to that one.

Hey,

Here is a list of all 4 thons next year:

Connect-a-Thon Jan 19-22

Connect-a Thon Apr 12-15

Connect-a Thon Jul 19-22

Source-a-Thon Oct 4-7

That means the first Thon of the year will be a Connect-a-Thon on the weekend of the 19 - 22 Jan 2024. I would love to have you with your fellow Legacy Heirs at that time, if it works out for you. I will remind you about registration when that time comes.

P.S. I now know a quick and easy little tip on how to add profiles. If you use the Sourcer/Searcher app, and want to know the hint, let me know and I will send you the steps.

Thank you for being a Legacy Heir!!!

The annual Source-a-thon is coming up. It will be from September 29th to October 2nd.

Registration has begun!! I would be so blessed if you go to: Register now for the 2023 Source-a-Thon! - WikiTree G2G and answer that you are in and are a Legacy Heir!!!!

Hi Lucy,

I recently adopted a "notable"profile you created. What is the protocol concerning adding their ancestors, ie, using Findagrave or just referencing the source?

Hi Lucy,

It is once again time for our annual Ireland Project check-in. Please respond within the next three weeks to let us know:

1. If you would like to continue as an Ireland Project member. If your answer is yes, please tell us if you are happy with your current team, or if you would prefer to join a different one. If you are currently participating in more than one team we would appreciate you ranking them in their order of importance to you, from highest priority to lowest. This information will be helpful as we consider possible future changes to our team structure.
2. In the past, the project has had a very minimal membership requirement (one contribution per year) for badged members to meet. Do you believe this is adequate, or should this requirement be increased? What do you believe would be a reasonable commitment to expect from all project members?
3. How active have you been in the Ireland Project over the past year? Please choose one of the following options: a) I normally spend 1-5 hours per month helping achieve my team’s goals. b) I normally spend 6-10 hours per month helping achieve my team’s goals. c) I spend over 10 hours per month helping achieve my team’s goals. d) I am not able to contribute every month but have spent approximately ________ hours during the past year improving Irish profiles.
4. Please provide feedback on any things you’d like to see the project do more of in the future.

You can respond to this message by posting a reply below or sending me a private message on WikiTree. If we don’t hear from you within the next three weeks we’ll assume your interests have changed or you no longer are able to participate in the Ireland Project at this time, and your badge will be removed. If your circumstances change later you will be welcome to reapply for membership.

Many thanks for all that so many of you have contributed to the project in the past year, and very special thanks to those who answered the project’s call and gave generously of their time to be part of Team Seanchaithe during the most recent connect-a-thon. We are looking forward to hearing from you.

le dea-mhéin, Jen Hutton, Ireland Project co-leader

As always I was blessed this last weekend, because you are a Legacy Heir. Thank you so much!

Hope to see you there.

Hello Lucy,

I'm Alison, I live in Spain, although I was born in London in 1985.

I am researching my family tree and we have a relative in common, CONSTANCE Muriel (Willett Radford) BOWEN 01/01/1888- 09/11/1977.

She was my great-grandmother, whom we called "Granny", married to Sir. John Poland Bowen. Would you be so kind as to give me editing permission so that we can include her in our family tree so that we can complete all her ancestors?

Thank you very much, a big hug and thanks for helping to expand the tree.

Regards. Alison.

Thank you for being a Legacy Heir! I hope to have you on the roster for April Thon.

Hey Lucy -

I recognized your name from other Connect-a-Thons - pretty sure you were the winner on one of the ones I was on. Very nice being nearly side-by-side with you on this one. Just read your bio (it's good!) and we are birds of a feather. One of my goals as a child was to have read every book in the world. After I figured out that it was even more books than were in my library I realized I'd never make - but year by year I do what I can! Are you on Goodreads? I track my books there.

I've just stepped foot into Wales one time (for a few hours, whilst on a trip to England) but it seemed a lovely land. If you know Welsh Japanese should be a breeze! Ha!

Anyway, nice to 'meet' you, and fun Connect-a-Thon-ing with you,

Diane (I live in the suburbs of Chicago)

Hi Lucy,

It’s time for our annual Ireland Project check-in! Please respond within the next two weeks to let me know:

• If you are happy with the team you’re on or if you’d like to make a change. It is now required that all members with an Ireland project badge work on at least one of the project’s team(s), so if you’ve not yet signed up please do so in your reply to this check-in.

• What you think the project is doing well, and what (if any) changes you would like to see us make? Are there any teams you would like to become more active in?

• Would you be interested in helping to work on an Ireland Project newsletter?

• Please give us some feedback on the use of google group and discord. Do you use one or both of these? If you don’t use either of them, what is the best way for us to ensure you receive project communications? If you would like to join us on either one, Just let us know in your response and we will get you signed up.

Please respond to this message by posting a reply below or sending me a private message on WikiTree. If we don’t hear from you within two weeks, we will assume you are no longer interested in participating in the Ireland Project, and your badge will be removed.

Sincerely, Jen Hutton, on behalf of the Ireland Project

Hello!!!!

As we start this first Thon of 2022, I just want to say thank you for being a Legacy Heir!!! Have fun with this one and remember, We take it at our own individual pace. If you like to love one profile all weekend, so be it! Make that the most beautiful profile you can. If you choose to do many profiles!!! That is great too!! Just make sure you have at least one good source. Even one contribution makes this amazing tree more beautiful, healthy and strong that it was before that contribution!!

Family, obligations and most importantly, YOU are more important than the thon! We love having you here, but if something comes up, elsewhere, take care of that first. You Rock Legacy Heirs, lets have some fun and connect some profiles!!

Hey hun,

You are an amazing part of WT and of Legacy Heirs. I am so thankful that you are a part of our team. Hope we see you on the team for the next thon.

Hi there hun,

Just a quick reminder that starting tomorrow morning at 8 am Eastern time in United States is the source a thon. I am going to be in at that time (5 am here) but please do not worry if you have to come in hours or days later. Remember we work around family, etc... and even if only one per teammate gets done, that is one more that was not done before the thon. It all makes our tree better and stronger.

Hey there hun,

Source a Thon starts on October 1 this year so registration started today. We would love to have you on the team again. If you will be, go to the link below and say you want to participate and you are a Legacy Heir. “See” you soon.

Hi Lucy!

As promised, I have been working on a resolution to the problem which you rightly identified. I will be posting on G2G in the next couple of days but thought it polite for to see it earlier. An example is found on the Category page for Neath https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Neath%2C_Glamorgan As you will see beneath the CIB we now have reference to the modern administrative districts within which Neath has found itself. Hope this goes some way to meeting your requirements whilst staying within the Wales Categorisation programme. Without your involvement we would not have done this, so an extra big shout-out to you.

Steve Bartlett

Hi, Lucy!

Thank you for your participation in October’s 2020 Source-a-thon. Your contributions helped us to clear over 57,000 profiles that needed sourcing. This makes our Shared Tree all that much better.

Keep up the great work!

All of us at WikiTree would like to thank you for your contributions and hope that you are enjoying exploring your roots.

Michelle ~ Volunteer Coordinator

Hi Lucy,

I haven’t heard back from you about the United Kingdom Project breaking up into the individual country-level projects of England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland. I hope all is well with you. I assume you don’t wish to join any of them at present, and will go ahead and remove the United Kingdom badge. If you wish to join England, Scotland, Wales or Ireland in the future, you would be most welcome to do so via the respective G2G sign-up post.

Many thanks for all your contributions,

Susie :-)

Thank you so much for being an amazing wikitreer! Your contributions help so much. Way to go on helping strengthen and beautify our wonderful tree. I am so blessed to have you on Legacy Heirs for the thons.

Hi hun,

Today starts the sign up for the new Thon. July 12 - 15 is the first annual Connect A Thon. It is the thon to get all the loose leaves and branches connected to the tree.

The place to sign up is: https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/846442/have-you-registered-for-the-2019-connect-a-thon-yet?show=846442#q846442

If something keeps you away, I understand, but as always I love having you on the Legacy Heirs Team. Please sign up to join if you can, and we will see you on July. Even if you can only help with one thing, please join us.

Hi Lucy,

We realise the time has come to dissolve the UK Project in favour of the individual country projects of England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland.

We are checking in with all UK badge holders to find out which country project(s) you would like to be in so you can collaborate with other members, have the opportunity to select which team(s) you would like to join, and so we can ensure you have all the correct badges.

Please respond by PM to let us know which country project(s) you would like to be in. Please don’t assume we know. We are effectively starting from scratch to make sure no one falls through the cracks.

Once you have done this, the Coordinator for Membership in the relevant country project(s) will be in touch to help get you situated.

Many thanks,

Susie
