Carol gifted some WikiTree kindness during the 2018 Secret Santa!
I was inspired by a TV program to start looking at my family history in 1979. My grandfather visited me shortly after this (a rare occurrence as he lived in Lancashire and I was in Kent), and I innocently asked questions about his parents and upbringing. The questions were answered hesitantly and rather vaguely, he seemed very uncomfortable and the subject was quickly dropped.
After investing in my first few BMD certificates, and going down a few blind alleys, I made the discovery that my grandfather's parents had never married, a fact that he obviously knew and was very sensitive about. And the few answers that he'd supplied to my questions were an incredible work of fiction. By then I was well and truly hooked into discovering the truth, but I never mentioned any of my findings to my grandfather. He did however send me a photo of his father, for which I was extremely grateful.

We are delighted to announce a new Profile Improvements Team namely the England Tangled Families Team which will be formed by merging the Arborists, Gedcoms and Unknown Teams,
As we know tangled families are created from old GEDCOM’s which cover many generations resulting in the need to merge profiles and having to disconnect others together with finding unknown spouses and family members.
The merging of the existing three teams into one exciting new team will hopefully reduce duplications and definitely will increase collaboration between you our experienced and dedicated members.
Team Leader for the England Tangled Families Team will be Fran Weidman who has agreed to manage the team bringing her excellent knowledge and experience from creating and managing the Unknowns Team together with Fran’s five year membership of the England Project.
Currently as a member of one or more of the named teams we are asking you to join our new amalgamated Tangled Families Team and letting us know by contacting Joan Williams or Malc Rowlands through Discord Messaging, England Project Google Group or Private WT Message if you want to join our new team.
Kind regards
Joan and Malc

I get updates to Shave profiles and wanted to compliment you on your beautiful Shave profiles! The coding you've done to produce such crisp census reports is a joy and a beauty forever. :D I may try it myself for the profiles I build in the future! Thank you for being such an inspiration to those of us who build profiles on WikiTree. Deb [Cavel-3]
Thank you for joining the Mighty Oaks for the Connect-a-Thon. The 65 members who joined our teams were awesome. Our two teams added 12,905 profiles over the weekend. The Branches Team came second and the Roots Team came forth in the overall scores. Both teams were also in the top ten in the normalised scores. I hope you enjoyed it and will be joining us in April when we do it all over again.
Joan, Maddy, Janet & Fran.
I was interested to see that you had added info for my 4th ggparents Richard Wyatt b1747 and Mary Lewis b 1754.
I wonder how upu are related to them, and therefore to me.
Always great to meet a cousin.
But also noted that you have King in your tree as I do and from the same area.
We don't seem to share DNA on Ancestry, but not sure of your username.
Kind regards Jufith

Although you didn't manage to establish where she disappeared to, we may get an answer in time. I can see why you have so many Wiki awards. It is likely the combination of attitude,willingness & "know how" that have assisted so many others. Thanks so much for your help.
Best wishes. Brian Herman ( Herman-2181)
