Looking forward to hearing from you,

I’m conducting the 6-month check in for the US Black Heritage Project. Because we are growing so fast, it’s not always possible for me to see what everyone’s working on.
I’d love to hear what you’ve been working on and if you are still happy being a part of the Profile Improvement Team. Members can change teams at any time. If you need something to work on, we now have a master task list here: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:US_Black_Heritage_Project_Tasklist
We now have a project badge! Hooray! As soon as I hear back from you that you’d like to continue with the project, I will add the badge to your profile.
I look forward to hearing from you,
Emma
Sorry for the delay in reply.
I've been working on entering all the profiles from the Lone Star Cemetery in Jacksonville, FL, I'm about halfway through. The last notable profile I improved was John Rosamond Johnson, the brother of James Weldon Johnson. When I was working on his, it reminded me of a funeral I attended in the Lone Star Cemetery, and I felt compelled to work on the families there as we have a lot of interpersonal connections.
I would like to continue to work on the Profile Improvement Team, and I'll jump back into the task list as well!
Thanks, Tara
