I am interested in communicating 
with
cousins and anyone else with an interest in genealogy.
Here is my family tree.
I'm recently retired. WooHoo!! I've been into genealogy for about 30 years now. I like history and I enjoy the hunt and discovery of new information on my ancestors and I thank my wife for putting up with my obsession. I can credit my paternal grandmother for sparking my interest in genealogy when she told me what her maiden name was, Pitsenberger. I thought wow, what a crazy name, tell me more and the rest is history. My bucket list of things to do is to travel to the homeland of my ancestors which includes Baden Germany, St.Gallen Switzerland and to Scotland.

We have some confusion about your registration for this weekend's Connect-a-Thon. Did you intend to connect with the Southern Super Sweepers team?
Thanks, Betsy
The Annual US Civil War January Challenge is to connect US Civil War Soldiers for the January Connect-a-Thon. This year will be a twist of what I usually do. Instead of you choosing a "Surname Letter", you will be choosing from a block of soldiers whom I've already screened that show they have family to connect. Each soldier has a connection to one or more of his immediate family--parents, siblings, spouses, children, on their profile. Whether you work on one soldier or your whole block of soldiers, it's one step closer in our goal to connect each of our US Civil War Soldiers. The goal is to make sure all these soldiers are connected at least by one or two degrees. You can sign up now by clicking this link: US Civil War Sign-up Chart
One is 26 Sep 1872 and the other is 17 Sep 1874. I think the 1872 date is probably correct as their son was born in 1874.
Would you have any Info on Duncan B. McKinnis born 1819 in Indiana? Regards, Michael McKinnis

Thank you Glenn for participating in the US Civil War Challenge. You completed 75 profiles during the January Connect-a-Thon. There were 27 of us who signed up for the Challenge, completing 6,480 profiles.
The US Civil War February Challenge will be to create profiles for those soldiers who died during the Battle of Shiloh on the 7th and 8th of April 1862. If you're interested in joining another challenge, check out the US Civil War Challenge Page on February 1st.
Thank you again. Pam

Congratulations on certifying to work on pre-1700 profiles! It’s very important to read and understand https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Pre-1700_Profiles. 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.

Great to see you’ve become a Family Member of WikiTree! Creating your family tree in Wikitree provides you the opportunity to connect and collaborate with other members.
