I just wanted to give you a heads up that I disconnected the parents you added to Anthony Dike. You may not have noticed, but Anthony Dike is a Project-Managed Profile. Just a reminder that adding or removing parents is a major change and communication first before editing is appreciated. Also, with pre-1700 profiles a reliable source is needed. For the PGM Project we generally follow the research of RC Anderson in the Great Migration Series, which indicates his origins are unknown (as well as his parents). Looking over the research you've added to the father's profile, I still don't see anything other than a last name that would connect John Dike to the immigrant. If you have any additional evidence to support a relationship, please comment on the profile. Thank you!

My name is John Kingman. I am a Coordinator with the WikiTree DNA Project.

DNA test matches with your relatives can strengthen your genealogy on WikiTree. You use the test match information from a DNA testing company to compare the amount of DNA shared between two or more DNA tests.

Check out the Help pages for using DNA on WikiTree. The DNA Help category page shows all the DNA help that is available. Also the DNA Features page can show you various ways that DNA tests can work with your genealogy. For a detailed guide to connecting DNA test results to WikiTree profiles via GEDmatch, look here.

You may see some relatives show up in your list of "DNA Connections" on your profile if they have added a DNA test to their profile. These DNA Connections are possible DNA test matches, they are not sufficient for marking parental relationships as "confirmed with DNA" without providing a DNA Confirmation source citation providing details of an acceptable DNA match. You may find that you have acceptable matches with some of them. There is more information about DNA Connections on the DNA Test Connections page.

Follow the guidance at the Confirmed with DNA help page for documenting that your genealogy sources are confirmed by DNA test matches. Also, I strongly recommend using the DNA Confirmation Citation Maker WikiTree app for creating and/or validating your DNA confirmation source citations. It produces great citations, is easy to use (copy/paste) and there are how-to videos linked from that page.

Note that a profile should not be marked "confirmed with DNA" without source citations for both genealogy and the relevant DNA test matches.

If you have questions or need assistance, feel free to ask on the G2G Forum using the Tag "DNA" and/or "DNA_Confirmation". There are lots of folks willing to help.

Happy WikiTree-ing!
