Thanks for having a big heart and adopting the Orphaned Profiles. This After Adopting Orphans FAQ explains the special attention those profiles need.
Let me know if you have any questions on how to find and record sources, merge duplicates, clean up gedcom biographies, and interpret the Suggestions report. I'm here to help!
I haven't gotten response to public or private message or to profile edits.
I took the initiative to proceed with phase two of my collaborative process on Nicholas Cain and associated profiles, in order to bring them all into conformance with the published Cain family history book. Your Nicholas Cain/Kain has been adapted for the alternate identity which was previously combined on one profile and subsequently split. In addition, your Catharine Margaretha Mann Monn was been moved as the wife of Johann Stephan Mann and is awaiting merges with two duplicates.
I owe you an apology and certainly an explanation for the changes I have made in the last few months. Please ask me to explain as soon as you are active and I will answer all of your questions.
I see that you just did the Pre-1700 Self-Certification. That's great! Also noticed you made 229 contributions to Wikitree, thank you! Here at WikiTree we like to have our members involved with others; collaboration is key!
Is there a particular time period, location, or topic you're interested in? Maybe you have some historically-significant ancestors? Here is a list of our WikiTree projects you might like to check out: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Projects
Why don't you also stop by the One Name Studies project, to see if there's already a name study for (surname) going on? The current leaders for that are Doug Lockwood and Alison Andrus. They would be happy to get you started.
You are now a confirmed member of WikiTree! Thank you for volunteering and sharing.
Have fun and ask for help ask for help if you need it! WikiTree members are always eager to offer guidance to a fellow genealogist. You can also join in on the conversation about our question of the week: Do you listen to genealogy podcasts?
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.
You may want to edit your TAGS to include more surnames and one surname per TAG as this will allow you to find others searching for the same surnames.
