Born in the 1960s, I am our family historian. I trained as a computer programmer in the 1980s but went to work for a government department. Took early retirement thinking I would study genealogy only to end up helping to raise 7 nieces at different times

I started tracing my Family History when my beloved grandmother died in 1988. Listening to my grandfather reminisce I decided to write down as much as I could. My grandparents had raised me in my early life and it became my solace. Then it occurred to me just how little I knew of my dad's side. He died when I was very young and so it continues......

Thank you for participating in past Thons as a member of the Toddlin' Tortoises. If you decide to participate again in January's upcoming Connect a Thon, the registration this time will be somewhat different. (You can read about it here.) We would love to have you join us again, but whatever team you decide to join will be lucky to have you!

Hi Amanda,

We're contacting you for the annual Australia Project membership checkin. We really appreciate your involvement in the Project in the last year. Thank you so much for all your help to improve Australian profiles on WikiTree.

Please could you reply to this message, or send me a private message to let us know if you'd like to stay on in the Project, and if you'd like to make any changes to the teams that you belong to. The teams are listed on Australia Project Teams.

If you've moved on to other things for the moment, that's absolutely fine. We'd appreciate if you'd let us know so that we can remove you from the membership list.

We're always happy to receive any ideas or suggestions that you have to make our project even better.

Looking forward to hearing from you!

The Australia Project Leadership Team ~ Gillian, Margaret and Veronica

Hi Margaret

Thanks for the check-in. I'll stay for the time being and in the same groups.

I've taken on a One Name Study so intend to try to put a couple of days into it each month and well as sourcing/connecting of existing profiles.

Afraid it's not worth making suggestions in this group.

Thank you for all you do

Amanda

G'day, Amanda. Thank you for all your past work with the Australia Project! This is just to touch base with you as you may not be aware that Project Australia has been restructuring some of our Teams, specifically what was under "Profile Improvers". We've decided to split into four related but separate teams underneath the "umbrella" of Profile Improvement: namely, Sourcerers, Data Doctors, Biography Builders, and Connectors & Arborists. As your name is on the current Improvers Team member list, we've placed you on the teams as indicated by your stated interests (or all of them if nothing is indicated). If you'd like to continue as things are, there's no need to respond in any way (although you are more than welcome to do so). If you'd like to change, add, or subtract a team (or teams), you could let us know which one or more of the new Teams you'd like to continue with going forward by replying to this message, editing in (or out) your area(s) of interest on the relevant page(s), or contacting me by private message (or on discord — where each Team now has its own channel on the WikiAustralia server). Looking forward to working with you! (If you've already made changes, feel free to ignore this message.)

Hi Amanda,

Regarding your query about localities in South Australia. Margaret has not commented directly but she has created two new categories to date. Monbulla was right in my sights as being a place that used to have a school. Even though the school closed, it is still a locality.

On a different subject, I am one person who doesn't like the Regional name 'Colony of South Australia'. My personal preference is 'South Australia' with second preference for 'Province of South Australia'. 7/8 g-grandparents and one gg-grandmother were born in SA.

Regards, Steve.

Thanks Steve

You're entitled to use the form you wish. I use 'Colony of' in order to show the difference - before and after federation on most states. Officially South Australia was only a Province from 1836 to 1856 and then a Colony from 1856-1900. Federation being 1 January 1901.
