Jamestown Stickers

Member Stickers

The Jamestown Team, one of the US Southern Colonies Project's Colonial Teams, works on profiles of the men and women who arrived in Jamestown. See also Jamestown Colony.

If you are a member of the Jamestown Team, you can add the Jamestown Team sticker to your profile:

{{Recognition Sticker

|image=Jamestown_Virginia_Colony-5.jpg

|imagetext= Jamestown Church Tower

|category= US Southern Colonies Project Members

|text=Member of [[Project:US Southern Colonies |US Southern Colonies]]' [[Space:US Southern Colonies Jamestown Team|Jamestown Team]].}}

The above coding for the Jamestown Team Sticker is also found in this section of the US Southern Colonies Stickers page, where other examples are given. You could also add the project member's sticker:

... ... ... is a member of the US Southern Colonies Project.

{{Member|Southern Colonies}}

Please note that if you are adding a sticker to a profile other than your own, WikiTree guidelines call for no more than 5 stickers and note that 3 is better (see Help:Stickers). Recognition Stickers can only be used on active WikiTree members' profiles. While Descendant stickers are primarily intended for use on the profiles of active WikiTree members, they can be placed on any profile to show a person's link to ancestors.

Project Sticker|Jamestown

If the person was in Jamestown before it became a Crown colony in 1624/5, add "|Jamestown" to the US Southern Colonist Sticker and US Southern Colonist Project Box (which are for profiles within the scope of the project and managed by the project, respectively). When added to the Project Box, only the category is changed (from Category: US Southern Colonists to Category: Jamestown Colonists). Note - both the sticker and the Project Box require a colony to be named.^[1]

... ... ... was a Virginia colonist.

... ... ... was a Jamestown colonist.

Adding |Jamestown to the sticker changes the category, the text, and the image.

{{US Southern Colonist Sticker|Virginia}}

{{US Southern Colonist Sticker|Jamestown}}

The project sticker can be used to add a project maintenance category.^[1] For example, adding |needs=Sources adds Category: US Southern Colonies Project Needs Sources.

{{US Southern Colonist Sticker|Jamestown|needs=Sources}}

Jamestown Settlers

For someone listed in the 1624/5 Jamestown Muster, use the "base" Jamestown Sticker:

{{Jamestown Sticker}}

... arrived in Jamestown aboard the ship Supply in 1621.

You can change the sticker to note what ship he or she arrived on by adding "|settler|ship=xx|year=16xx" - for example:

{{Jamestown Sticker|settler|ship=Supply|year=1621}}

A Jamestown settler, for the purposes of the base sticker and the "settler" option, is someone who arrived in Jamestown before Jamestown became a Crown colony in 1624/5, as shown by ship passenger lists or by inclusion in the 1624/5 Jamestown Muster. See WikiTree's Jamestown Colony page for details and resources. Note that there is a separate sticker for "Jamestowne Society Qualifying Ancestors" (see below). Neither group is a subset of the other (for example, Qualifying Ancestors include non-immigrants and not all proven Jamestown settlers have been designated as a Qualifying Ancestor by the Jamestowne Society).

The base sticker and settler option both add the category Jamestown, Virginia Colony. Another option, "official" (see below), does not.^[2]

Jamestown Officials

For someone who served as an official of Jamestown prior to 4 July 1776, you can use the following sticker:

{{Jamestown Sticker|official}}

This version of the Jamestown Sticker does not add a category.^[2]

Jamestown Society Qualifying Ancestors

The Jamestowne Society Ancestor Sticker is for profiles of people listed by the Jamestowne Society as Qualifying Ancestors (http://www.jamestowne.org/qualifying-ancestors.html; see also this WikiTree page).

{{Jamestowne Society Ancestor Sticker}}

The sticker adds two categories: Jamestowne Society Qualifying Ancestors and Jamestown Colonists.

Please note: We have the Jamestowne Society's permission to use its flag in the sticker for the profiles of people the Society lists as Qualifying Ancestors (the {{Jamestowne Society Ancestor Sticker}} sticker just described). Please do not use it with other stickers or separately. See this G2G post.^[3]

When adding this sticker, you should also add a footnote to support it.

Example footnote:

<ref>[http://www.jamestowne.org/abbot---allomby.html Jamestowne Society]: Adams, Thomas - A9510; was born 1586 Shropshire, England, died 1668 London, England; (Draper's Guild member). ''accessed 7 June 2020''</ref>

Potential Qualifying Ancestor

In some cases, the Jamestowne Society may not list someone as a Qualifying Ancestor although the person meets the Society's criteria. In those cases, this sticker can be used:

{{Jamestowne QA Sticker|potential}}

The sticker does not add a category.^[4]

QA Ancestor Sticker

The {{Jamestowne QA Sticker}} is best used with the |ancestor= parameter:

{{Jamestowne QA Sticker

|ancestor=[[Baley-28|Temperance Baley]]}}

The sticker does not add a category.^[4]

Relative of Qualifying Ancestor/Potential QA

This sticker is primarily for profiles of close relatives of people listed by the Jamestowne Society as Qualifying Ancestors (see http://www.jamestowne.org/qualifying-ancestors.html), but can also be used on your own profile.

{{Jamestowne QA Sticker|relative

|relation=father

|ancestor=[[Batte-33|Henry]] and [[Batte-22|William]] Batte}}

{{Jamestowne QA Sticker|relative

|relation=7th great-grandson

|ancestor=[[Adams-346|Thomas Adams]]}}

The sticker does not add a category.^[4]

When adding this sticker, you should also add a footnote with the Qualifying Ancestor's information to support it.

Example footnotes:

<ref>[http://www.jamestowne.org/barnett---batte.html Jamestowne Society] ''accessed date''
* ​Batt/Batte, Henry - A605; Charles City Co.: 1685-86, 1691-92 (Burgess).
* ​Batte, William - A609; Elizabeth City Co.: 1659 (Burgess).
