The 2022 WikiTree Challenge : One guest ... one tree ... one week ... what can we uncover? See the new highlights video from our challenge for Swedish rock star Hasse Fröberg.
Member of the Week: David Loring earned his wings as an Adoption Angel (helped an adoptee connect with their birth family) and coordinates Ireland County Teams . Which county is your ancestor from? David says there are Irish profiles that need your TLC.
"We are all volunteers and each one of us has different talents and capabilities and more importantly differing amounts of time .... You are not expected to drive yourself into the ground being a sourcing superhero, a locations fixing guru or categorisation czar."
Last week: Claire C. is active in Connect-a-Thons , Sourcerers Challenges , and the WikiTree Challenge .
"I really enjoy the challenges. I find them a great way to learn about WikiTree .... Everyone is so super helpful too."
GenealogyTV did a video tour: " How to Use WikiTree ."
For another member's perspective, see the " Welcome to WikiTree " video series.
Here's a member's introduction in verse: " One tree, two tree ... ".
"It's been wonderful to experience how collaborative genealogy in WikiTree makes all of us better genealogists. Collaboration on our shared ancestors encourages us to share information and to hold each other to high standards." —Ellen Smith
member since 2014
"Before WikiTree, I was skeptical and discouraged about big one-single-trees because there were (are) so many errors, but WikiTree is different because it's collaborative, genial and there are people available to help resolve any issues." — Roberta Estes, blogger
