Gillian (Cartwright) Loake was born in Manchester, Lancashire, England.
I was born in Manchester, Lancashire, England in 1955, the eldest of five children born to Frank Cartwright and Rose Darby. [1]
My father was a design engineer and changed jobs many times in my childhood resulting in many moves and 11 different schools:

In 1974 I began a bachelor of pharmacy degree at the University of Bath graduating in 1977. I began work at Basingstoke District Hospital pharmacy department, this also served the 1000 bed Park Prewett Psychiatric hospital.
I married Michael Partridge in Stonehouse, Gloucestershire in 1978 [2]
Together we had three children:
Michael and I opened our own pharmacy 'M&G Partridge Chemist' in Kettering, Northamptonshire in 1980 when our first son was 10 days old. We lived in Kettering until 1985 then moved to Burton Latimer, Northamptonshire.

I then worked as a locum pharmacist until retiring in 2013.

I have enjoyed my first year of being active in WT and the England Project, I still feel I have so much to learn but I am am happy to stay in my local Northamptonshire team and learn the ropes as a Trailblazer. I have enjoyed the various challenges and felt I learnt a lot from them and also from the 'thons. Discord is really good for picking up tips as well. Gillian

PS I did my SRN training at Basingstoke DGH (1975- 1978) and did my Psychiatric secondment at Park Prewett Psychiatric hospital -remember those underground tunnels well. Ah the memories
It's that time of the year again: check-in time! As England Project Leaders, we like to check in with you every six months or so to see how things are progressing. Back in May, we didn't ask for a response due to the rapid emergence of Covid-19 because we understood that people's lives were changing rapidly. While we are still living in a Covid world, we do need to hear back from you this time around.
First of all, how are you doing? What are you currently working on? Are you happy with the team(s) you're in, or would you like to change things up?
Secondly, we're looking for some feedback on the Google Group and our Discord server. Do you use either or both of these? If you don't use either, why not? Do you have any suggestions on how we can improve participation and collaboration, either generally or for you personally?
Looking forward to hearing from you,
Amy, Joan & Lizzie.
Thank you for your participation in October’s 2020 Source-a-thon. Your contributions helped us to clear over 57,000 profiles that needed sourcing. This makes our Shared Tree all that much better.
Keep up the great work!

Thanks for taking the Pre-1700 Quiz!
Because pre-1700 ancestors are shared by many descendants, working with members of the projects which coordinate them is essential. You can learn more about joining the community in How To #3 and in the Project FAQ.
Use the Pre-1700 Projects list to find one which best fits your research focus. Review the project pages for special guidelines and to learn how to collaborate with the project members.
Let me know if you have trouble finding projects which fit your focus. Click my name, then ask in the comment section of my page.
Remember to cite reliable sources in pre-1700 profiles you manage, or edit. (See:https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Pre-1700_Profiles#Cite_reliable_sources).

Check out Beyond the Basics of WikiTree for a guide on some of our more advanced features such as Projects, Categories, and Merging.
We're very active on our social sites and we have an excellent blog where you'll find our monthly newsletter as well as tips, interviews with our members and guest posts from others in the genealogy community. And we're always looking for volunteers to assist in different ways.
As always, I'm here to help if you have any questions!

Now that you have had a little time to try our site, there are a few more features you may find useful:
For instance, ideas on what to include in a profile can be found in Styles and Standards; including some tips on writing biographies
Also a friendly reminder about adding sources and references to your profile. Sources are critically important for genealogy and you will be helping future genealogists by listing where the information you've added came from. This page describes different kinds of sources: http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Sources
If you have any questions, feel free to ask!
You are now a confirmed member of WikiTree! Thank you for volunteering.
Have fun and ask for help if you need it! WikiTree members are always eager to offer guidance to a fellow genealogist.
If you need additional help, our Mentors Project is a friendly bunch of volunteers who will be glad to assist you with WikiTree-specific problems.
See you in the branches --

The initial email from us has helpful links that get you started on WikiTree, which is not like any genealogy site youve ever used.
WikiTree is different because our goal is to have one profile per person, and that means we all work together as a BIG collaborative team!
What brings you to WikiTree? Do you have research youd like to share? Are you interested in how your family fits into the big tree? When you confirm your email address, youll have an opportunity to Volunteer and tell us about your genealogical interests.
Welcome to the Family, were really glad youre here.
