Joshua Fordyce
Honor Code SignatorySigned 18 Mar 2022 | 225 contributions | 6 thank-yous | 868 connections
I've informally been on a bit of a crusade correcting issues all over the place based on my own research of my own bloodline and trying to remove discrepencies and add helpful information. I got flagged for spam but the Anjou line for Fordyce is pretty fake. We can't verify any of his findings after Samuel Fordyce 1735-1824, which is really frustrating because I am trying to find the Scottish link beyond from my surname to Clan Forbes. Im actually writing a paper about it. I hit a bit of a wall until I found a few cracks after doing a DNA test so im back in it looking hard for some answers.
I will contribute what I can. I have a ton of my own research.

Congratulations on certifying to work on pre-1700 profiles!
It’s very important to read and understand the Help:Pre-1700 Profiles page. These profiles for deep ancestors are shared by many, and collaborating on them works best if we all follow the guidelines laid out on that page.
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.

We are so happy you decided to upgrade to the Family Member level.
Please visit our tutorial pages to learn how to use WikiTree: How To Use WikiTree. They will save you time, energy, and frustration as you add your family profiles.
Exploring the site is the best way to learn. One way to do that is to check out the drop-down menus on the top right side of your profile page. Finding a known ancestor and collaborating with the profile manager is another great way to start.

I noticed that you posted on Peter Fordyce (1480-1558), John Fordyce (1450-), Hugh Fordyce (1527-), Martin Fordyce (1557-) and Samuel Fordyce (1602-1680)'s profiles. All their profile are orphaned at this time, so no profile manager/s will be notified about your message. If you upgrade you will be able to adopt the profile and connect it to your branch, add your sourced information, and improve the profile. Any improvements that you make will help in the mission to create an accurate, single-family tree.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
