Hi David,
WikiTree's seventh annual 72-hour sourcing marathon is coming soon!! and The Kiwi Crew is participating. The previous Source-a-Thons have been great fun and very productive. Last year we did almost 57,000. I invite you to join us this year to beat that record! Participation is easy, simply add sources to unsourced profiles.
To register, post an answer on this Post saying "Yes, I'd like to participate with the KiwiCrew". Once registered, you will receive your Source-a-Thon Bib and badge.

Happy WikiTreeing, Campbell
Thank you for your participation in October’s 2020 Source-a-thon. Your contributions helped us to clear over 57,000 profiles that needed sourcing. This makes our Shared Tree all that much better.
Keep up the great work!

First, welcome to Wikitree. If you need any help, feel free to ask. Secondly, I do have some Smiths in my line, so I checked out Rachel that you uploaded (it was in my update Wikifeed, that members receive regularly about profiles that we manage or have tagged under the link at the top right: My Wikitree; settings; and then the link: Surnames/tags you are following. It's really helped me out. Again, WELCOME
