I will send her email by reply to your private message using your email.
Re: your message to me earlier today, yes P Bowles is related to my husband, she is not a WT member. I have been in frequent contact with her for some time. I will get back to you with more information after I contact her. M

Ethel's maiden name was Hill, as per the sources and research notes on her profile
Could you please amend her Last Name at Birth or add me to her Trusted List so I can make the change myself.
Thanks Steve
Thanks for the find. I've corrected the LNAB and added you to the trusted list.
I will leave your Research Notes intact, but there are many reasons why a marriage record might not be found, including something as simple as a transcription error. I think that the 1891 census is prima facie evidence that she and Herbert were married, as is the fact that she was listed as Dickinson, not Hill, on her death registration. So I will be reattaching them as a married couple.
I see that you have worked a lot on the Teeple family of New Jersey. I have added information about two Teeples (who also go by Teeple, but seem to use Teeples most of the time) in Mason county Kentucky. They were both born around 1790 or so in New Jersey - Ann Teeples and James Teeples. The Mason county death records report that Ann was the daughter of James and Debby Teeples. They were both in Mason KY before 1820. Do you have any ideas about connecting them to the Teeple families of New Jersey?
Julie
I am descended from the New Jersey Teeple's. But the records for Teeple's in the 1700's are quite a mess. The Teeple People newsletter folks had promised an update a couple of years ago but it never materialized.
Your James and Ann don't look familiar, but I'll take a closer look at my notes and send you a private message in a day or so.
Dave
Thank you for the information you sent to my email. I have looked through the provided resources on the New Jersey Teeples and the Teeple People pages, but did not find any one that matched James or his probable sister Ann Teeples Smith Mulliken. In fact, there did not seem to be any males named James listed at all! Please keep an eye out and let me know if you see any one that might be a match. Thanks for your help! Julie
Wintermute's wife Catherine Young is my wife Brenda's gggg grand aunt. Her brother Peter is her direct ancestor. Catherine's sister Dorothy also married James brother Jacob. The men in both families rode with Butler's Rangers.
I do have better sources than are attached to the profile currently. I'll add them and I'll send you a private message on your profile.

Please see the comment that I have posted on Brenda (Milne) Rutherford's profile page about Thomas Dell and Anna "unknown" Dell. I am sure that you can help us resolve the "unknown" issue now that I have found Anna's maiden name of Tinney (and cited this in the profile updates for Thomas).
Thanking you in advance.
Jane
No need for apologies. Thanks so much for your work on the Dell profiles. I've made the LNAB change for you. These folks are very distantly connected to Brenda and we would be happy to hand over management to you if this is your family. Just let me know.
Dave
Thanks so much for your help. I would be happy to take on both profiles - Thomas and Anna (Tinney) Dell - as they are my 3 x GG and I am currently researching their ancestors as well as adding other children as I find them. I also discovered yesterday that I am not only related to these Dells on my paternal side (which I have known about for quite some time) but also on my maternal side: my brain was scrambling at bit...lol.
Jane
it's annual check-in time 2023. If you still wish to remain a member of the Germany Project, please reply to this post, by stating this intention. If we don’t hear from you in the next 30 days, your membership badge will be removed. In this case please don't be offended ... you're welcome to rejoin at any time. Please also note, that in order to receive help, with researching your German ancestors, membership is not mandatory. Just ask your questions in the G2G forum and tag them with Germany in order for knowledgeable people to see them.
If you wish to remain a member, we would like to learn more about your perception of the Germany Project in order to achieve a future development according to our members needs and wishes. For this, we created a survey, which we kindly ask you to fill-in.
In case you want to communicate, discuss and receive help about WikiTree in German, you might want to check out the WikiTree category at Compgen’s Discourse as well as the German Discord server Ahnenforschung.
Of course there’s still the official WikiTree Discord server, where we usually talk English. Feel free to learn more about Discord and the server at Help:Discord.
Kind regards from Black Forest
When we set up the Palatine Migration Project it was originally a sub-project of the Germany Project. But we are now stand-alone with our own badge and project account. So I guess I don't need my Germany Project membership any longer.
Regards.
Dave
I see you worked on my 7th great-grandfather's profile (Feller-8) yesterday. Thank you!!!
Christine Croddy. I see you’ve added a birthplace. Could you possibly source this for us?
It certainly would be awesome if she was German/Palatine. It makes sense.
(I was convinced she was Irish. I know, crazy, but there’s some logic in it. But I’m always fine with more German blood.)
This profile was added some time ago to the Palatine project because her birth place was shown as Germany. But Germany did not exist that far back. It was part of the Holy Roman Empire or (in German) Heiliges Römisches Reich. As we are supposed to use their naming conventions and not ours, I changed the birth place.
But now reviewing this, it appears that whether she was Irish or German, all trees point towards her being born in Virginia, which means she should not be part of the project. So I will change the birth place to Virginia and remove the project.
My preference has been to consult with a project for merges. What are your thoughts on https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Special:MergePerson&user1_name=Shalle-1&user2_name=Schalle-2&action=compare
Thoughts? Git r done?
David
Just dropping by to say Thank You for acknowledging some recent changes I made to the profile of one of my great-gr-gr-gr-... grandfathers. I think I've shared my respect for the work you do with various projects, especially the Palatine Migration, as I seem to have several direct ancestors that fall within the project's scope. Anyway, it means a lot to be "Thanked" for small adjustments and I certainly look forward to working with you again sometime soon. Cheers! Becky Elizabeth
You should be ashamed of yourself and I will be complaining about this.

Thanks for the tip on "Who Do You Think You Are" about the Mabie family I've been working on for my level 3 Canadian Orphan Trail. I was so excited about it, I was looking for the connections on my breaks at work today, and then when I got home, I was able to link up Offerman-37 through the Loucks line to the Mabies. You are 19 degrees from Offerman-37 and interestingly so am I.
No surprise that my connection to him runs through my Palatine ancestors.
My apologies, I can't seem to remember where I should place these notices. At any rate, the following family arrived in Philadelphia, on the Thistle in 1730. I believe they all should be listed in the Palatine project.
The list of passengers of the Thistle, arriving in Philadelphia in 1730 include the following: Ulrich Scherer Margaretha Apolonia (Walckner) Johann Friedrich, 11 Bur2000 Sherer; To Philadelphia, PA. Johannes Scherrer, 33 Anna Barbara Johann Jacob, 3
If you tell me where I should communicate this information/request, I promise to write it down this time! Judy Luckenbill-68 Brett
Looks like one or two of these folks have profiles on WikiTree.
I'll email you.
It's time for a six month Military and War Project check-in with all members. Have you been active in the last six months? Please note that it is a requirement for membership in the Military and War Project that you respond to these check-ins. To make bookkeeping easier, just click Reply to this message on your own page, add your reply, then SAVE. I look forward to hearing from you..
Many thanks,
Mary~ Project Coordinator, Military and War Project
I'm still interested in the project. My main area of interest is identifying and adding members of the Upper Canada Militia in the War of 1812.

I've identified another family branch for the Palantine designation. This is the Eck branch. Jacobus Egg/Eck (Eck-161) , brought his family to Philadelphia, on Sept 23, 1741, aboard the Marlborough, captained by Thomas Bell, Master.
The name references in Strassburger are strange, only the father is listed as Johan Jacob Buck with an umlaut over the "u". In the Daniel Rupp reference a 'Johann Jacob ICK" is listed.
There also appear to be duplicates on the wife of Jacobus Eck (the original immigrant (Eck-161). Anna Margaret Kilcher (Kilcher-2 )and Anna Margaret Eck (Eck-110) seem to be the same person. They are currently under consideration for merging.
I couldn't decipher the signatures but will continue looking and trying.
Thanks for your help. Judy
However what you say is all well and good, but the reality is that I have misplaced many of the researched notes that I made. I saved them, and placedthem into a basement here within Poland when we emigrated. Thus I am new to the site, have lost access to my old online trees, and are in the slow process of rebuilding the tree, and occasionally I find a individual that I know that I have recorded the history from painstaking hour's in the archives. Slowly I am unearthing my notes about the source material to better reference it. In the meantime I am making the skeleton of my tree, and inviting my cousin's to help fill in the Swiss cheese holes. Most of the searches were done between 2006 and 2008 after building up a indicator of the shape from dodgy sites like the LDS, and took many hours to prove or adjust in the actual county archives. I spent days in Matlock, two days in March, Cambridgeshire. Was on first names with the lady at Abingdon family history centre, and was in and out of Nottingham archive's too. Other searches have been done by my late father and cousins on both sides of the clan. Many of the foot soldiers, including my father and his two sisters have since died. We created a single name search group for Calladines, and I hope many may start to join your site now... Again I am laying out the bones to email different surviving member's - but its the children now, not the original team... Please be assured that I am not compounding errors and will go back to add additional sources when my notes come to light, or my cousins upload thier own gedcoms - mine is stuck in windows 8 and I cant convert it yet. Likewise its nice to see that the site has some monitors looking out, and all my notes now are open to scrutiny, so I am happy that you noticed. David.
This analysis has the common distant ancestor is ALFONSO CASTILLA VII (1105-1157), Castilla-99, who seems to be their 20-something-great grandfather.
By one wife Alfonso had daughter SANCHA (1154-1208, Castilla-102), and her line goes eventually to the Trudeaus. By another wife he had another daughter URRACA (1133-1179,Castilla-103), her descendants go eventually to Fidel Castro. Alfonso also had a son, FERNANDO (1137-1188, Castilla-107), whose descendants add to the mix.
If that chart is right, link below, it appears Justin (Trudeau-195) and Fidel (Run-1) would be twenty-something cousins?

I tried checking WikiTree for Ruz-1 “connected to” Trudeau-195, that didn’t work, I think because both lines do not yet have profiles that far back.
I posted the link in comments on Justin's profile.
FWIW, just tossing it out there.

This connection is pure fiction. I've answered more thoroughly on Justin's page.
All the best,
Dave
Matthäus (Heinle) Heinly (abt. 1697 - 1773) Heinle-62 and his son David Heinly Heinly-8 arived in Philadelphia on the ship Patience. Does that qualify them for the Palantine project?
I always appreciate your help and if I should be communicating in some other way, please let me know.
Thank you, Judy Luckenbill Brett (Luckenbill-68)
Yes, this man and his entire family are indeed Palatine Migrants. I will add them to the project shortly.
Dave

I completed some Beckenbach merges the other day. I'll take a look again and send you a private message.
Thanks for the catch!
I hope that you have a very happy New Year!
