I am interested in communicating 
with
cousins and anyone else with an interest in genealogy.
Here is my family tree.
My particular interest at the moment is the evolution of families from Saint Helena and Tristan da Cunha. My 6g grandmother, Sophy was taken to Saint Helena as a slave by the Honourable East India Company. Her granddaughter, Sarah Bowers relocated to Tristan da Cunha as part of a wife purchase agreement, from where the family branched out to Australia, South Africa and the USA. Family members took part in the Napoleonic Wars, the American Civil War and the Boer War on both sides.

Secondary interest is the Learmonth and King families of Perthshire, Scotland. King family members departed Perthshire in the years following the last Jacobite uprising, which may have been purely co-incidental, and were early settlers in New Zealand and Australia.

I came across a couple of your profiles as I was researching Thomas Hill Applegate https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Applegate-3291, recently created as an extension of my family by marriage. I've added his profile link to a couple of your profiles - I'm not sure if there are any more where he's mentioned.
I know very little about him, so if you have any other info, please feel free to add it!

Not wishing to cause anybody stress in their family research, I will adjust the surnames of Saint Helena slaves that I have identified to avoid possible distress. Each of those profiles will be listed and maintained under the Category 'Saint Helena'.
I know that you are working in a different area, thus the US Black Heritage Naming Conventions for Slaves doesn't apply. I just wanted to mention this and see if you had touched base with the US Black Heritage project.
Thanks very much for your suggestion. My first intention was just to get the Saint Helena slaves who had been 'baptised' listed in a form that was trackable, so I could follow subsequent marriages and births but I hadn't fully considered naming conventions, as there didn't appear to be any consistency in the Saint Helena records. I will certainly have a look at the US Black Heritage project for comparisons/suggestions, etc. Thanks for your interest. Steve B.
Primary sources should always be added to pre-1700 profiles at the time they are created. If you don't have a source for a pre-1700 profile, it would be best to ask for help in the G2G forum before creating the profile. This page on Sources can help with the proper formatting. Thanks, Laura
I stand chastised. Is there a particular profile you're concerned about or are you worried about all of the pre 1700 profiles I've created ? Steve B.
I have redone the pre-1700 certification test and checked all the links.

As you have been a member of WikiTree for a few weeks now I thought I would check in to see how you are getting on with the site.
Has the New Member How-To been helpful or left you with any questions?
I am here to help with any problems or queries you may have. Just click my name, then ask in the comment section of my page or send me a private message.
Sometimes links don't work in emails. If that's happened to you, check the public comments on your profile. The links will work from there.

Thank you for self-certifying for the Pre-1700 badge! Participation in a Pre-1700 Project is strongly encouraged for those wishing to edit Pre-1700 profiles. Collaboration is essential because pre-1700 ancestors are shared by many descendants.
It looks like the England Project would be a good fit with the tag you entered. Adding the tag England will help you get updates about activity for that project.
Do you have any questions? Let me know. I'm happy to help! :-)
David ~ Pre-1700 Greeter
You are now an active member of the WikiTree community, and can start adding your family.
I recommend starting with our New Member How-To pages. They will save you time, energy and frustration as you create your family profiles. Building your family tree on WikiTree will help you connect with others who have the same ancestors.
Need help? Just ask!
Above all, have FUN! :) I hope you enjoy WikiTree as much as I have!
Kind regards,
