Also, I noticed that your contributions list includes actions changing Anne Thompson's profile into Mary Lawing's - because profiles "travel" with their Change history (and comments, if any), profiles should not be "re-purposed" into a different person. (I know that WikiTree policy says not to do this, but I'm still looking for the Help page that does. I'll post it when I find it.)
Cheers, Liz
P.S. WikiTree's Relationship Finder - Special:Relationship - doesn't yet show us a related by blood because of the merge of profiles for our common ancestor (it should tomorrow, I think; if I recall, the database that the Relationship Finder uses updates every 24 hours). However, Connection Finder does: Special:Connection.
Cheers, Liz
Thanks for taking the Pre-1700 Quiz!
Pre-1700 ancestors can be shared by many descendants, so collaboration is essential. You can learn more about joining the community in How To #3 and in the Project FAQ.
The United States Project may fit your research focus. If not, use the Pre-1700 Projects list to find other possibilities. Review the project page to learn about resources and guidelines as well as how to collaborate with the project members.
Have questions? Ask in the comments section of my profile.
Remember to cite reliable sources in pre-1700 profiles you manage, or edit. (See: Pre-1700 Reliable Sources).

P.S. To find reliable sources for your profiles, go to the Family Tree & Tools tab; select Genealogy Research and scroll down near the bottom of that list and select Research with RootsSearch. There are over 20 websites to access from there.
It looks like you and I share some dna. Something else we share is Virginia. I can't wait to see how we connect. Your somehow or other cousin, Susan
Thanks for upgrading, you are all set to be able to add and edit profiles now. I hope you discover as much about your family as I have about mine over the last several years.
Check out the Member How-to pages for some quick tips on working with both the Wiki pages and our other members. There is some great information in those pages.
If you have questions about how WikiTree works, let me know. You can use the "reply" link under this comment or click my name, then ask in the comment section of my page.

P.S. If links do not work in an email from WikiTree, try them from the comment section on your profile page.
I see that you have had your DNA tested, congratulations! Getting Started with DNA will tell you more about how DNA kits are used on WikiTree.
To be able to add profiles, you will need to upgrade (there is no cost). You can do this from your Upgrade page. Just answer the five questions, e.g. who you want to communicate with, if others can see your family tree, what surnames, locations, or topics interest you, etc, and click on the green box that says "Upgrade”.
Upgrading just means you will become a Family Member with the ability to work on your immediate ancestors to help us achieve our goal of joining all individual family trees into one global family tree.
I hope this helps! If you have any problems, let me know.
Take care
