As I'm closing in on 90, when I'll be promoted from an Octogenarian to a Nonagenarian, I find I have lots of time for Wikitree, specifically, profiling my parents, the Greens and the Hartlands, my late wife's family, the Shooks and the Bixlers along with her German extended family, the Weagleys. Lately I have studied the profiles of my current wife, the Snooks and the Canavans. Yep, I buried a Shook and married a Snook. While I was studying the genealogy of my mother (Hartlands), my maternal grandfather's sister Catherine Hartland, the first of the siblings to emigrate to America, about 1878, age 18, traveling alone, met and married Norman Lybarger, so I took on the Lybargers as my final project because I found them very interesting.

In case you are wondering why I wasn't baptized until I was 6 years old, it so happened that I was in a terrible toboggan accident while pulling my sled up a hill at the Birmingham Country Club. I sustained a triple fractured skull and a brain concussion, then 3 days later came down with acute appendicitis. My mother didn't think I'd survive and didn't want me to die unbaptized.

i noticed that you are creating Pre-1700 profiles using FamilySearch profiles as sources. Profiles and trees from sites such as FamilySearch, Ancestry, Geneanet, Geni, etc... are not acceptable as sources for Pre-1700 profiles. Here is the link to the England Project's sourcing guidelines to help you out. https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:England_Project_Reliable_Sources
The G2G forum is also a great place to ask for help or advice as well
Thanks!
John
Please note when creating new profiles and the Last Name at Birth is known the Current Last Name should not be "Unknown"
It should be the same as Last name at Birth until a source can be added for the Current Last Name
Thanks
