It is once again time for our annual Ireland Project check-in. Please respond within the next three weeks to let us know:
You can respond to this message by posting a reply below or sending me a private message on WikiTree.

If your circumstances change later you will be welcome to reapply for membership.
Many thanks for all that so many of you have contributed to the project in the past year, and very special thanks to those who answered the project’s call and gave generously of their time to be part of Team Seanchaithe during the most recent connect-a-thon. We are looking forward to hearing from you.

We look forward to hearing from you.

I confess to Life Interuptus for the last few months. I also confess to still not being comfortable with EXACTLY how Wikitree works, including the preferred way to respond to your message. "You don't know what you don't know. That said, I am not sure, while I have made contributions, if I have made contributions that qualifies for the Project. Any suggestions or specific requests will be more than welcome.
Good luck in your efforts,
Betty
It’s time for our annual Ireland Project check-in! Please respond within the next two weeks to let me know:
Please respond to this message by posting a reply below or sending me a private message on WikiTree. If we don’t hear from you within two weeks, we will assume you are no longer interested in participating in the Ireland Project, and your badge will be removed. If you wish to reapply for membership later, we will be happy to have you back. Many thanks, and I look forward to hearing from you!
Sincerely,
Jen Hutton, on behalf of the Ireland Project

We are also asking all project members to join the project's Google Group for project communications.
If you are interested in remaining with the Project, please reply to this comment or send me a message, request to join the Google Group, and let us know what team you would like to participate on.
We really appreciate your contributions on WikiTree, and thank you for all your hard work. If you have any questions, please ask. We would also love to hear any feedback you may have for the project.

Welcome to the US Southern Colonies Province of Carolina Team. I am excited to have you join this team. Here is the page where I jotted down goals and tasks if you will check them out. These will change as the project advances. https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Province_of_Carolina_Team As we add space pages for Resources for Province of Carolina, we will attach them to this Team page for navigation.
After checking it over, and looking for what interests you most, just message me and I will be checking on you.
If you want, please add a bit about your ancestors in addition to what I entered from your first message beside your name.
If you have questions, just ask!! Again thanks for joining us for this project and this team.

I'm still not very conversant in Wiki language. I went to the page and added information as an "edit". Don't know if that was the proper way to do it or not.
One thing to share is a resource that everyone may not know about.
http://revwarapps.org/
is a source for "Southern Campaigns Revolutionary War Pension Statements & Rosters". I found very interesting information about my 3 GGFather as his wife applied for a pension based on his Revolutionary War service. And of course, it focuses on SOUTHERN campaigns. Michael
The Ireland Project (previously the Irish Roots Project) has now changed its structure into Teams. We require everyone with the Ireland Badge to be a member of at least one Team or Sub-Team and our google group. See https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Project:Ireland for details. The Teams are :-
? Can you let me know if youd like to stay on in the new project and which team(s) youd like to join. Please also let me know your e-mail address so that I can get you added to the projects Google Group or confirm you are already a member of the google group.
Many thanks,
Maria

This week we have your last stop on the guided tour. Hopefully, you're feeling like a WikiTree pro! If not, you can always revisit the tour stops via the comment boxes on the right side of your profile.
You've covered a lot of ground the past few weeks. Today, we want to give you just a few more tools that can take you even deeper into the WikiTree forest without getting lost: How to Dig a Little Deeper.
Please do not hesitate to ask questions! If the above link does not work from your email, please go to your profile in the public comments and it will work from there.
Thanks, WikiMesssenger Cindy
You may have been hard at work getting connected to family members who are already here and adding those who were missing. You probably have at least a few profiles that you manage now.
There's a fast and easy way to access those profiles using the Watchlist. So, this week we're going to look at How to Manage Your Watchlist.
Please let one of us know if you have questions! If the above link does not work from your email, please go to your profile in the public comments and it will work from there.
