Hi Callum,

We're contacting you for the annual Australia Project membership checkin. We really appreciate your involvement in the Project in the last year. Thank you so much for all your help to improve Australian profiles on WikiTree.

Please could you reply to this message, or send me a private message to let us know if you'd like to stay on in the Project, and if you'd like to make any changes to the teams that you belong to. The teams are listed on Australia Project Teams.

If you've moved on to other things for the moment, that's absolutely fine. We'd appreciate if you'd let us know so that we can remove you from the membership list.

Over the past year, Australia Project members have been more active on Discord. We're finding it a fun way to communicate as a project. If you're not on Discord yet, here's some information - Help:Discord. If you are already on the WikiTree Discord server, let us know, and we can send you an invite link to the dedicated Australia Project server (WikiAustralia) where all our chat channels are located. It's a great way to communicate with other members on your project team/s, or for any general questions.

We're always happy to receive any ideas or suggestions that you have to make our project even better.

Looking forward to hearing from you!

The Australia Project Leadership Team ~ Gillian, Margaret and Veronica

Hi Margaret,

Happy to stay on. And I'd like to pop my head in on Discord too if you want to send me the invite. Cheers

Hello Callum,

It's time for the annual Australia Project membership checkin. Thank you so much for contributing to the project and Australian profiles on WikiTree during the last year. We really appreciate you!

If you would like to stay in the project, please reply to this message or send me a private message to let us know that you would like to stay on. Alternatively, if your WikiTree and research interests have moved away from Australia, please let us know and we can remove you from the membership list for the moment. You will, of course, be very welcome to rejoin the project down the track whenever you want to.

We are also keen to know if you want to make any changes to the team or teams that you want to focus on. Take a look on Australia Project Teams to see what teams there are to choose from. If you want to discuss this, or have any questions or suggestions about the Australia Project we'd love to hear your ideas.

Thanks for taking the time to get back to us!

Gillian, co-Leader, Australia Project

Hi Donald. I don't know of any ancestors from America. Perhaps we share one in the UK, Ireland or Denmark.
posted by Callum Simms
Hi Callum, yes I wondered about that, I do have connections to Simms in America but I also have connections to Bagnall's of Ireland who have been in Australia since about

1850's. It's distant and I don't know which family I identify on that chromosome.

Hi Callum,

The Australia Project leadership team are carrying out our annual check-in to see how you are going in the project. We'd really like to thank you for all your work on Australian profiles over the past year! We think we've made great progress in 2020/21 with your assistance.

Please could you reply to this message, to let us know if you would like to stay on in the project and if you are happy with your current role and team involvement. If you would like to do something additional or different, take a look on the Australia Project page to see what other options there are.

It would also be great to get any feedback or suggestions that you have to improve the project.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Kind Regards

Margaret Haining Membership Coordinator

Hi Margaret, sorry for the delay.

I'm quite happy to stay on the project and in my current team.

Perhaps you have some advice on how to use my other research. I have used a couple of old maps to locate settlers' land grants on google maps, and it would be great to somehow share this. https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=1h-_0y_jyy9ET2Dn9QK2QfupcGqKH4Nbw&usp=sharing

Thanks

Thank you for responding to the check-in message, and for your ongoing contributions to WikiTree and the Australia Project, they are much appreciated!

Why don't you do a post in the Google group about the land grant maps, I'm sure there would be other members interested to see it.

Regards, Margaret

Could you please check profile Simms-309 for which you are PM.

This profile has some minor typographical errors that are raising database error messages, but we are not able to correct them as you have the profile locked.

Could you please either unlock it, correct the errors or add me to the trusted list and I'll correct them.

Thanks

Hi Callum,

The Australia Project leadership team are carrying out a check-in to see how you are going in the project and especially to thank you for all your work on Australian profiles on WikiTree. We really value your participation.

Please could you get back to me by private message to let me know if you are happy with your current role and team involvement within the project or if you would like to do something additional or different. Currently you are on the Convicts team. If you would like a change, you can check on the Australia Project page to see what other options there are.

It would also be great to hear any feedback and any suggestions that you have to improve the project. On a practical note, if you are a member of the google group, are you receiving messages ok? Also do you have Australia as one of the tags you are following on the G2G? Don't forget to add it in if you don't have that tag yet.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Kind Regards

Margaret Haining Membership Coordinator

Hi Callum

On behalf of the Australia Project leadership team, we're carrying out a Project Members Check-in. I am following up with you, as you are a member of the Convicts and First Settlers Project. Are you still active in that project. We are also launching our new teams for the Australia project. Please could you let me know if there are any other team/s you would like to contribute to. A list of teams is on the Australia Project page. Please respond by private message.

We really appreciate your enthusiasm in working on Australian profiles on WikiTree, and thank you for all the work you have been doing. We look forward to hearing back from you. Regards, Gillian

Hi Callum

I am re-proposing the merge of Sophia (Spearing) D'Arrietta (abt. 1810 - ) and Sophia Spearing (1810 - ). I don't assess that the minimal difference in marriage information is sufficient to hold-off proceeding with the merge of profiles for what are obviously the same individual.

Any changes in marriage required can easily be handled after the merge. That said, I note that there are absolutely no sources for any of the information on Spearing-78 so I think what you have on Spearing-6 should be regarded as far more probably/ reliable.

Okay?

It's possible I meant to type 1930 as an early estimate, and based the children off the typo. I'll try to find my original source, and make the appropriate changes

Hi Callum, Could you please check the profile for Elizabeth Jane Wilson. She is on the Suggestions Report because her dob is approx 1903, she has children born in 1920's, but her parents are born in 1913 & 1912 and they married in 1939.

Is she the sister of Robert Kevin Wilson, instead of his daughter? Or are they even related? Thanks for you help in fixing this error. Diane

Callum, do you happen to speak any other languages? Would you check out our languages template and add it to your biography? For example you might add

{{ Languages | en | fr-2 | ga-1 }}

to the top of your biography if you speak English natively, intermediate French and basic Irish, or you could use de-4 to specify near-native German or ru-1 for basic Russian, and so forth up to ten languages.

It really helps to know who speaks all the different languages used on WikiTree! If you only speak English, you're very welcome to use this text to make that clear:

{{ Languages | en }}

Thanks,

Karen

Thanks for those merges and your kindness, Callum. Welcome to the "family". Lol
Hi Callum. Welcome to WikiTree! I just signed up here recently too and I'm actually tracing my mother-in-law's family which seems to connect to yours on the Pickett side. I have a fair amount of information (have yet to add most of it unfortunately) and I'll help you out if I've got info that you haven't been able to find yet.
Welcome to WikiTree, Callum! Hopefully, you'll find a lot more cousins. :o)

Thank you for volunteering to help us grow our worldwide family tree by adding your branches. I hope your experience as a member of the WikiTree community will be very pleasant and productive.

If you have a question, feel free to ask at the G2G forum.

Also, WikiTree Help is filled with useful information you might want to review.

Please check out our Honor Code . It is a very important part of why our community is such a friendly place to grow your family tree. :o)
