Free Space pages are wiki pages for supplementing your family history. They can be used to profile anything of significance such as a special pet, a meaningful event, a school you attended, a family heirloom .... They're "anything pages".
Thank you for volunteering to help grow our World Wide Family Tree. You are now a member of the WikiTree Community.
Please note we are trying to build one Collaborative Tree which means one profile per person. It is important to ensure no duplicates are entered as you add any Profiles to WikiTree.
If you need any help getting started check out the Help section],or head over to the G2G forum, you might want to check out the introductory WikiTree video that a member created.
Our a_Mentor Mentor Team are a friendly bunch of volunteers who will be glad to help with specific problems if you have any.
Good luck growing your branches, and thanks for offering to help with our shared tree :)
Yes adding family members is helping, whether manually or by gedcom, adding any information helps. Once you have settled in you might like to help more by joining projects but that is not required, there are there if you want.
Just posting a message that you want to share parts of your tree is enough for a greeter to confirm your membership.
I have been researching my own, and occasionally others, family history for around 15yrs. I live in central Scotland. I have a history degree and am a retired teacher. The nine rules follow my own ideas about how genealogy should be practiced so I am happy to agree with them. I look forward to collaborating with and sharing research with others.
2. Our help pages, top right, have all sorts of useful information.
