Joe Matte

Thanks for all your help, Joe!

Hi, More quick tips:

Congratulations on passing the pre-1700 quiz .To coordinate with members working on profiles from the same time period, location, or historical topic. See Pre-1700 Profiles and Pre-1700 Projects for more information. http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Pre-1700_Project

Free Space pages are wiki pages for supplementing your family history. They can be used to profile anything of significance such as an event, a family heirloom .... They're "anything pages".

Not sure what to include in a profile? Check out our Biography Ideas and Styles and Standards help pages.

Sometimes you'll run into unresponsive profile managers. We have a process for resolving those unfortunate situations.

Questions, just ask! Mary~ WikiTree Mentor

Congratulations for signing the Honor Code ?

Hi Joseph, I'm Mary, a Mentor. Our goal is to build a collaborative tree with just one profile per person. Please make sure to avoid Duplicates before adding a profile.

Please add DOB, DOD, locations, and Sources/references attached to every person are very important and assists all of us! Please take the time to find these.

If you encounter ancestors already on WikiTree ( less than 200 years), contact the Profile Manager for trusted access.

Hi Joe, Thank you for volunteering to help grow our World Wide Family Tree.

You are now a member of the WikiTree Community. Please note we are trying to build one Collaborative Tree which means one profile per person. It is important to ensure no duplicates are entered as you add any Profiles to WikiTree - if you have pre-1700's ancestors to add please read our Pre-1700 profiles info.

If you need any help getting started check out the help section from the menu, top left, or head over to the Help section or head over to the G2G forum and take a minute to introduce yourself in the Tree House, you might also want to check out the introductory WikiTree video that a member created.

Good luck growing your branches, Patt
