[[Category:Connect-a-Thon]] {{Image|file=WikiTree_Images-30.png |align=r |size=m }} == Connect-a-Thon == The Summer Connect-a-Thon is one of our four big events of the year, alongside the Spring [[Help:Spring_Clean-a-Thon|Clean-a-Thon]], Fall [[Help:Source-a-Thon|Source-a-Thon]], and Winter [[Help:Scan-a-Thon|Scan-a-Thon]]. They are all fun and productive for [[Help:About WikiTree|our mission]]. Our mission in the Connect-a-Thon is to bring the world closer together by [[Special:Connection|connecting]] more people on our big tree. For 72 hours we add missing relatives to existing profiles. It's like adding missing pieces to a puzzle. The more pieces of the puzzle we add, the more they connect. See "[[Help:Connect-a-Thon#Participation_Instructions|Participation Instructions]]" below for more details on exactly how it works. == Schedule == We're starting '''Friday morning at 8:00 AM [http://www.greenwichmeantime.com/time-zone/usa/eastern-time/eastern-daylight-time/ EDT (GMT -4)], July 17, 2020'''. The event runs until '''Monday at 8:00 AM [http://www.greenwichmeantime.com/time-zone/usa/eastern-time/eastern-daylight-time/ EDT], July 20, 2020'''. Here is a [https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html time zone calculator] if you need help figuring out the right time in your part of the world. === Video chats === We will be hosting live YouTube video chats throughout the weekend to cheer each other on and announce t-shirt prize winners. There will be a chat every four hours, around the clock, with one winner drawn per chat. You can find the schedule and links to the chats [[Help:Connect-a-Thon/Video_Hangouts|here]]. You can also add the schedule via [https://calendar.google.com/calendar?cid=NmliZzFvbmllN2QxcDVmZDFjanM0ajZucTBAZ3JvdXAuY2FsZW5kYXIuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbQ Google Calendar] to get reminders. == Registration {{Badge|connect_a_thon_2020}} == You need to {{register}} in advance. Simply post an answer saying "Yes, I'd like to participate" along with what team you'd prefer, if any. If you're not sure about a team, say a few things about your location, genealogical interests, and/or what you like to work on at WikiTree. After you post, we will award you the participant badge. To participate you do need to be a WikiTree [[Help:Membership|member]] who has signed the [[Special:Honor Code|Honor Code]]. The cut-off date for registering is midnight on Wednesday, July 15, 2020. If you have any trouble or questions, contact Eowyn at eowyn@wikitree.com. == Teams == For fun, participants are divided into teams. If you don't choose a team (see the list below) we will assign one that seems to fit your geographic or genealogical interests. === Starting a team === Would you like to organize a team? Teams can be organized around anything, or just for fun. Team captains are expected to: * Create a [[Free-Space Profiles|free-space profile]] for your team to communicate on. * Recruit for your team by replying to members who post on the {{register}} messages asking if they'd like to join your team. * Communicate with team members to encourage them and cheer on the group. * During the Connect-a-Thon, post to the team thread on G2G with updates about how the team is doing. Are you interested in being a team captain? Contact Eowyn at eowyn@wikitree.com and let her know. If you don't have an idea for a team, she can let you know which ones are needed. Notes: * Every participant should be on one and only one team. * Teams can have co-captains. * Aleš can offer weighted team statistics (number of contributions divided by number of team members) so we will not be splitting teams this time. === Current teams === ==== New Teams ==== * [[Space:Mighty_Oaks|Mighty Oaks]] ('''England'''). {{G2GLink|1054774}} Captains: [[Williams-47589|Joan Whitaker]] and [[Langridge-71|Janet Wild]] * [[Space:Cymru_Dragons|Cymru_Dragons]].

About 80% of the profiles on WikiTree are connected within 100 degrees of each other. This leaves about 20% out in the cold. Since tracking connections is somewhat complex, for this challenge we are just counting the number of parents, siblings, spouses and children you add to existing person profiles. Often these will be "collateral" relatives that members neglected to add when adding their family tree. Each relative you add increases the chance that a tree will intertwine with our global tree. Tracking for the challenge is done automatically. You do not need to use the "challenge tracker" or manually keep track of how many profiles you add. === Where to work from === There are a few different ways to choose profiles to add to: * '''Work from [[Special:WatchedList|your Watchlist]]''' ** One of the easiest ways to participate is to work on building out your own family lines. Sometimes we focus so much on our direct lines that we forget about the collateral ones. You can work on building outward, not just upward or downward. * '''Work on your [[Special:Unconnected|Unconnected Profiles]]''' **If you [[Special:Unconnected|click here]] you will see a list of the people on your Watchlist who are not yet connected to the main tree. You can sort that list several ways, and also limit it to a particular surname. If you click on the highlighted word "total" in the first paragraph on that page, you will see a list of all unconnected profiles on WikiTree, which works the same way. * '''The Connectors Chat Page''' **The [[:Space:Connectors_Chat|Connectors Chat]] page has tables listing the [[:Space:Connectors_Chat#Largest_Unconnected_Branches|largest unconnected branches]] on WikiTree, unconnected branches which are particularly [[:Space:Connectors_Chat#Challenging_Unconnected_Branches|challenging]] to connect for various reasons, and [[:Space:Connectors_Chat#Unconnected_Notables|unconnected notables]]. * '''The DBE Unconnected page''' **The [[Space:DBE_Unconnected|DBE Unconnected]] page lists reports for different countries in the world, showing unconnected branches with at least one profile which says that the person in the profile was born or died in that country. * '''Needs Profiles Created Category''' **[[:Category:Needs_Profiles_Created|This category]] exists as a way of noting profiles that have sources for family members who do not yet have profiles on WikiTree. For example, a member might have only created a profile for a daughter mentioned in a census. However, the rest of the family still needs to be added to WikiTree. * '''See also:''' [[Space:Places_to_find_unconnected_profiles|Places to find unconnected profiles]]. If you'd like further help, Mindy Silva created this great [[Space:WikiTree_Connect-a-Thon_Tutorial|tutorial]]. === Scoring === Each time you add a new profile to an existing one, you will earn a point. New profiles must have at least one valid source. Note that for scoring purposes it doesn't matter if the person for whom you're adding a parent, sibling, spouse or child is [[Special:Connection|connected]] or [[Help:Unconnected|unconnected]]. Every missing family member we add increases the chances of connecting people. Tracking and scoring for the challenge is done automatically. You do not need to use the "challenge tracker" or manually keep track of how many profiles you add. === Tracking progress === Here is how to see the current totals for individual members and teams. These progress reports are from [[Help:WikiTree_Plus|WikiTree+]]. {| border=1 ! Reports ! By User ! By Team ! By Team and User ! Update frequency |- !

These additions are what are being counted in the reports above. == Prizes == We will be awarding special "2020 Connect-a-Thon" t-shirts as prizes. # The top five winners who add the most profiles will get t-shirts. # We will draw one participant at random during every video chat (see the section above). You don't need to be in the chat to win but you do need to {{register}} in advance and be participating. Every participant can get only one t-shirt, therefore if you win a drawing, you can't win again or get a t-shirt as a top contributor. == Badges for Winners {{Badge|connect_a_thon_winner_2020}} == In addition to the participation badge, the top winners will get the 2020 Connect-a-Thon winner badge. These winners will include: * The top 10 winners overall. * Everyone on the winning team who participated (both overall and by average). If you have Connect-a-Thon questions, please post them in {{G2G}} (discussion thread coming soon).

[[Category:Source-a-Thon]] {{Image|file=WikiTree_Images-15.png |align=r |size=m }} October is Family History Month. To celebrate, we're kicking it off with a three-day "'''Source-a-Thon'''" October 1-3! It's for a good cause ([[Sources|sourced]] genealogy!) ... there will be $4,850 in [[#Prizes|door prizes]] donated from around the genealogy community ... and it should be lots of fun. Now that the Source-a-Thon is happening right now, here are important links: * [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/301884/who-will-win-the-source-a-thon-door-prize-drawings Prize awards] * [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/301889/do-you-have-source-a-thon-questions Questions?] * [[Source-a-Thon Tutorial]] * [[Source-a-Thon Teams]] and [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/301761/source-a-thon-team-updates-how-is-your-team-doing team updates] == Source-a-What? == It's the world's first Source-a-Thon, a 72-hour sourcing marathon. Our goal is to clear out the [[:Category:Unsourced_Profiles|Unsourced Profiles]] category on WikiTree. Including [[sources]] is in our community's [[Special:Honor Code|Honor Code]] but inexperienced genealogists don't always record them. Sometimes the source is "Aunt Mabel," as [http://www.grandmasgenes.com/source-thon-october-1st-2nd/ Mags put it]. This doesn't mean the information isn't worth preserving or sharing. It's a starting point — information waiting to be confirmed. {{Image|file=WikiTree_Images-18.png |align=r |size=258 |caption=[[Badges_and_Points|Badges]] for participants and winners. }} We have a monthly [[Sourcerers Challenge]] where generous genealogists help verify unsourced family information on WikiTree. The Source-a-Thon is like a Sourcerers Challenge on steroids. This will be a big community event that attracts attention to the importance of sources and helps improve the accuracy of our great big, shared [[The Free Family Tree|free family tree]]. Like a marathon, this is a competition, but most participants won't be serious competitors. Most of us will be doing it for the challenge of sourcing as many profiles as they can, for the mission, and for the fun of it. We will be hosting live Google Hangouts throughout the weekend to cheer each other on. During every chat we will draw a winner for a door prize. Every participant who is online and adding sources during that time will be eligible. All the details are below. But if it sounds cool already, [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/301758/will-you-participate-the-source-thon-current-registrations register now] and get your race number for your geneajersey. (Don't worry if this doesn't all make sense (''geneajersey?''). We're making all this up!) == Schedule == The party starts Saturday morning, October 1, and runs until Monday at midnight, October 3. We're including Monday so that anyone who isn't free over the weekend still has a chance to participate. Technically, it kicks off at 12:01 AM EDT, just past midnight on Friday night, and ends at 11:59 PM EDT Monday night, [http://wwp.greenwichmeantime.com/time-zone/usa/eastern-time/eastern-daylight-time/ Eastern Daylight Time], GMT -4. Genealogists from all over the world will be participating at the same time. See the [[Source-a-Thon Hangouts]]. == Registration == {{Image|file=WikiTree_Images-19.png |align=r |size=212 }}To officially participate you need to register in advance. Registrants will be given the Source-a-Thon [[#Badges|badge]] and assigned a race number. We'll use that number to draw the random winners for the many door [[#Prizes|prizes]]. Registration is free. Like everything on WikiTree. === Who can register? === If you're a genealogist who knows [[Sources|what sources are and why they're important]] please join us! To register you do need to be a WikiTree member, and to participate you need to have signed the [[Special:Honor_Code|Honor Code]]. If you're not already a member, login as a Guest now. You'll be invited to "[[Volunteers|volunteer]]" to help grow WikiTree. There are a few steps involved, but it's all just about verifying that you understand [[About WikiTree|what WikiTree is about]] and aren't just in it to get free stuff. === How to register === To register simply post an answer on [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/301758/will-you-participate-the-source-thon-current-registrations this thread]. Just say "Sign me up!" or whatever and include a few words about your location or genealogical interests. A WikiTree Leader will award the badge and give you a race number. If you have any trouble or questions, contact Eowyn at eowyn@wikitree.com. == Prizes == Over $4,850 in genealogy door prizes will be given away! Winners will be drawn at random in live Google Hangouts that we will be hosting every few hours during the weekend. See [[Source-a-Thon Hangouts]] for the scheduled times. Note that you don't need to videochat to participate, you can just watch and post comments if you like. To be eligible to win you need to: # have registered in advance, so you have a race number, and # be online during the drawing and actively participating by adding sources to Unsourced Profiles (see below). We know that many participants won't be online when their number is drawn. The Source-a-Thon is running 24-hours a day for 72 hours straight. If you're online for 72 hours we'll be worried about you! If you're not present when you're number is drawn, you'll have until the next Google Hangout starts to claim your prize. Numbers will be posted at the top of a "Who's winning the Source-a-Thon door prizes?" G2G message that will be linked here. If you see your number posted, you get to pick from available prizes. You make your selection by posting a reply on the G2G thread. If you don't claim your prize before the next drawing, your number will go back in the hat. After someone wins and claims a prize, their number will come out of the hat. In other words, you can't win more than one door prize. This will give all of us a lot of chances to win. With so many prizes, the odds of winning are good. And the more active you are in the Source-a-Thon, the better your odds become. Here's the current list of door prizes.

The 10 participants who remove the most profiles from the Unsourced categories over the 72-hour period will get a Source-a-Thon Winner badge. The gold, silver, and bronze winners will be celebrated as the heroes of the weekend. There are no prizes for winning — just the badge, bragging rights, and the community's appreciation. We are also planning a user template that you can put on your profile after the race is over to show your race number, number of sourced profiles, and final ranking. == Participation: Adding Sources and Counting Sourced Profiles == Participating means removing profiles from the [[:Category:Unsourced_Profiles|Unsourced Profiles]] category. Select an Open (white) profile from anywhere in the category or one of its subcategories and search for sources to back up the facts of the person's life. Profiles need to come from the Unsourced Profiles categories. They cannot be profiles that you created. Valid sources include census records, BMD records/index references, military documents, land documents, wills, etc. A source cannot be another family tree, such as Geni or an Ancestry Member Tree. If you find a valid source: # Edit the profile to add the source, according to our [[Sources]] guide. # Remove the {{Unsourced}} or [[Category:Unsourced Profiles]] categorization or categorizations, and save the profile. # Add the profile's [[WikiTree ID]] to the Source-a-Thon G2G tracking message for the [[Source-a-Thon Teams|Source-a-Thon Team]] you've joined or been assigned (details will go out right before the Source-a-Thon). Click the "edit" link below your answer. See the [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/289385/september-2016-sourcerers-challenge September Sourcerers Challenge] for an example of how this way of posting works. If you search for sources for a profile but cannot find any, please add a [[Research Notes]] section to the profile. Say where you have looked and sign your comment with four tildes (~~~~) so it is dated. For example: "Looked for John in the US Census records for 1900-1940 and couldn't find him on FamilySearch or Ancestry." This way the next researcher knows where to start. Everyone maintains their own counts, on their honor. See the [[Source-a-Thon Tutorial]] for step-by-step help on how to participate. === Teams === To make the G2G contribution tracking threads easier to use, we will be splitting participants into groups of 20 or less. Each group will have its own tracking thread. We're calling these groups "teams." Many teams are having fun with this and will be sourcing profiles in the same area, cheering each other on, and otherwise encouraging and helping each other. To join or start a team, or for more information, see [[Source-a-Thon Teams]]. Participants who don't join a team will be assigned to a regional or generic group. == Official Rules, Terms and Conditions == In addition to WikiTree's main [https://www.wikitree.com/about/terms.html Terms of Service] ...

[[Category:Source-a-Thon]] {{Image|file=WikiTree_Images-15.png |align=r |size=m }} September 30 - October 2 — the start of Family History Month — is our second annual "'''Source-a-Thon'''". This three-day event is for a good cause ([[Help:Sources|sourced]] genealogy!) and there will be over $5,700 in [[#Prizes|door prizes]] donated from around the genealogy community. It will be lots of fun. == Source-a-What? == This is our second 72-hour sourcing marathon. The first one in 2016 was lots of fun and together we added sources to over 22,000 profiles. Our goal is to clear out the [[:Category:Unsourced Profiles|Unsourced Profiles]] category on WikiTree. Although including [[Help:Sources|sources]] is in our community's [[Special:Honor Code|Honor Code]], inexperienced genealogists don't always record them. Sometimes the source is "Aunt Mabel," as [http://www.grandmasgenes.com/source-thon-october-1st-2nd/ Mags put it]. This doesn't mean the information isn't worth preserving or sharing. It's a starting point — information waiting to be confirmed. Like a marathon, this is a competition, but most participants won't be serious competitors. Most of us will be doing it for the challenge of sourcing as many profiles as they can, for the mission, and for the fun of it. We will be hosting live Google Hangouts throughout the weekend to cheer each other on. During every chat we will draw a winner for a door prize. Every participant who is online and adding sources during that time will be eligible. == Schedule == The party starts Saturday morning, September 30, and runs until Monday at midnight, October 2. We're including Monday so that anyone who isn't free over the weekend still has a chance to participate. Technically, it kicks off at 12:01 AM EDT, just past midnight on Friday night, and ends at 11:59 PM EDT Monday night. ([https://greenwichmeantime.com/time-zone/usa/eastern-time/eastern-daylight-time/ Eastern Daylight Time] is GMT -4.) Genealogists from all over the world will be participating at the same time. Click here to {{register}} now. The registration cut-off is Thursday, September 28, at 11:59 pm, EDT. == Registration == {{Image|file=WikiTree_Image_Library-8.png |caption=Source-a-Thon "Race Bib" |align=r |size=212 }} You need to {{register}} in advance. You'll be given the Source-a-Thon [[#Badges|badge]] and assigned a race number. We'll use that number to draw the random winners for the many [[#Prizes|door prizes]]. Registration is free. Like everything on WikiTree. Sorry, registration is now closed. The information in this section is left here for reference only. === Who can register? === If you're a genealogist who knows [[Help:Sources|what sources are and why they're important]] please join us! To {{register}} you do need to be a WikiTree member, and to participate you need to have signed the [[Special:Honor Code|Honor Code]]. If you're not already a member, login as a Guest now. You'll be invited to "[[Help:Volunteers|volunteer]]" to help grow WikiTree. There are a few steps involved, but it's all just about verifying that you understand [[Help:About WikiTree|what WikiTree is about]] and aren't just in it to get free stuff. === How to register === To register simply post an answer here: {{register}}. Just say "Sign me up!" or whatever and include a few words about your location or genealogical interests. A WikiTree Leader will award the badge and give you a race number. If you're already part of a [[Help:Challenge Teams|team]] from a previous challenge, mention that. If you have any trouble or questions, contact Eowyn at eowyn@wikitree.com. == Prizes == Over $5,700 in genealogy door prizes will be given away! Winners will be drawn at random in live Hangouts that we will be hosting every few hours during the weekend. See [[Source-a-Thon Hangouts]] for the scheduled times. Note that you don't need to videochat to participate, you can just watch and post comments if you like. To be eligible to win you need to: # {{register}} in advance, so you have a race number, and # be online during the drawing and actively participating by adding sources to Unsourced Profiles (see below). We know that many participants won't be online when their number is drawn. The Source-a-Thon is running 24-hours a day for 72 hours straight. If you're online for 72 hours we'll be worried about you! If you're not present when you're number is drawn, you'll have until the next Google Hangout starts to claim your prize. Numbers will be posted at the top of the "[https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/472795/who-will-win-the-source-a-thon-prizes Who's winning the Source-a-Thon door prizes?]" G2G message. If you see your number posted, you get to pick from available prizes. You make your selection by posting a reply on the above G2G thread. If you don't claim your prize before the next drawing, your number will go back in the hat. After someone wins and claims a prize, their number will come out of the hat. In other words, you can't win more than one door prize. This will give all of us a lot of chances to win. With so many prizes, the odds of winning are good. And the more active you are in the Source-a-Thon, the better your odds become. Here's the current list of door prizes.

Say where you have looked and sign your comment with four tildes (~~~~) so it is dated. For example: "Looked for John in the US Census records for 1900-1940 and couldn't find him on FamilySearch or Ancestry." This way the next researcher knows where to start.

It might be a genealogical research interest or a source you like to use. Or a team can be local. We have participants from all over the world. Coordinating with others from your area can be fun. You might associate a team with a [[Help:Projects|WikiTree project]], such as the [[Project:US Southern Colonies|US Southern Colonies]]. Or it could be something completely unrelated to family history, like [[Space:Mac Interest Group|Mac Users]]. Feel free to choose a fun team name. Create a [https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?action=newspace free-space page] for your team. E-mail eowyn@wikitree.com once this is done so she can add you to the list. You're encouraged to recruit for your team. You might review the G2G posts where members have {{register}}ed to see if anyone mentioned an interest or locality that might fit your team. You could reach out to project e-mail lists or even outside genealogical groups that fit the team's topic. Posting on Facebook would be great. (Tag it @WikiTreers.) Any outreach you do will be helping raise awareness about the Source-a-Thon so it's much appreciated. We do ask that you do not start recruitment posts in G2G separate from the main registration threads. That has led to a lot of confusion in the past. === Team leadership during the Source-a-Thon === Free-space pages are for team coordination, e.g. to list potential sources in their research area and coordinate who will be searching for what, as well as where Aleš will include tables of unsourced profiles specific to your team (if possible). Teams also have "cheer" posts in the G2G where your team members can encourage and cheer each other on. Team members may be able to help each other claim [[Space:Source-a-Thon_2018#Prizes|prizes]]. The way we're doing these drawings, every participant has a good chance to win, but you have to be online when your number is drawn. Team members might want to watch for each other's numbers. During our [[Source-a-Thon Hangouts|periodic video chats]] during the Source-a-Thon we will be talking about how the teams are doing. There will be bragging rights for the most productive teams! == Prizes == Over $3,500 in genealogy door prizes will be given away! Winners will be drawn at random in live Hangouts that we will be hosting every few hours during the weekend. See [[Source-a-Thon Hangouts]] for the scheduled times. Note that you don't need to videochat to participate, you can just watch and post comments if you like. To be eligible to win you need to: # {{register}} in advance, so you have a race number, and # be online during the drawing and actively participating by adding sources to Unsourced Profiles (see below). We know that many participants won't be online when their number is drawn. The Source-a-Thon is running 24-hours a day for 72 hours straight. If you're online for 72 hours we'll be worried about you! If you're not present when you're number is drawn, you'll have until the next Google Hangout starts to claim your prize. Numbers will be posted at the top of the "[https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/668236/who-will-win-the-source-a-thon-prizes Who will win the Source-a-Thon prizes?]" G2G message. If you see your number posted, you get to pick from available prizes. You make your selection by posting a reply on the above G2G thread. If you don't claim your prize before the next drawing, your number will go back in the hat. After someone wins and claims a prize, their number will come out of the hat. In other words, you can't win more than one door prize. This will give all of us a lot of chances to win. With so many prizes, the odds of winning are good. And the more active you are in the Source-a-Thon, the better your odds become. Here's the current list of door prizes.

Will you donate a prize? It can be anything that would be fun or valuable to genealogists, with at least a $25 face value. E-mail Eowyn at eowyn@wikitree.com. == Participation: Adding Sources and Counting Sourced Profiles == Participating means removing profiles from the [[:Category:Unsourced Profiles|Unsourced Profiles]] category. They cannot be new profiles that you create. Select an [[Help:Privacy#Open|Open]] (white) profile from anywhere in the category or one of its subcategories and search for sources to back up the facts of the person's life. Valid sources include census records, BMD records/index references, military documents, land documents, wills, etc. A source cannot be another user-generated family tree, such as Geni or an Ancestry Member Tree. {| cellpadding="20" |- |If you find a valid source: # Edit the profile to add the source, according to our [[Help:Sources|Sources]] guide. # Remove the {{[[Template:Unsourced|Unsourced]]}} [[Help:Research Note Boxes|Research Note Box]] tag. # Save the profile and click the Challenge Tracker button. # On the Challenge Tracker, select the Source-a-Thon checkbox. | |} If you don't find a source after searching, please add a [[Help:Research Notes|Research Notes]] section to the profile. Say where you have looked and sign your comment with four tildes (~~~~) so it is dated. For example: "Looked for John in the US Census records for 1900-1940 and couldn't find him on FamilySearch or Ancestry." This way the next researcher knows where to start.

The 10 participants who remove the most profiles from the Unsourced categories over the 72-hour period will get a Source-a-Thon Winner badge, as will all the participants of the winning team. There are no prizes for winning — just the badge, bragging rights, and the community's appreciation. We are also planning a [[Help:Stickers|Profile Sticker]] that you can put on your profile after the race is over to show your race number, number of sourced profiles, and final ranking. == Official Rules, Terms and Conditions == In addition to WikiTree's main [https://www.wikitree.com/about/terms.html Terms of Service]: No purchase is necessary for the prizes. Void where prohibited. Prize donors are independent and not officially affiliated with WikiTree. Prize winners will be put into contact with prize donors for delivery.

[[Category:Source-a-Thon]] {{Image|file=WikiTree_Images-15.png |align=r |size=m }} On October 4 to October 7 — the start of Family History Month — we are hosting our fourth annual "'''Source-a-Thon'''". This three-day event is for a good cause ([[Help:Sources|sourced]] genealogy!) and there will be over $3,500 in [[#Prizes|door prizes]] donated from around the genealogy community. It will be lots of fun. == Source-a-What? == This is our fourth annual 72-hour sourcing marathon. The previous three Source-a-Thons have been great fun and very productive. In 2016 we added sources to over 22,000 profiles. In 2017 we added sources to over 53,000 profiles. In 2018 we sourced over 72,000! Join us this year to beat that record! The goal of the event is to clear out the [[:Category:Unsourced Profiles|Unsourced Profiles]] category on WikiTree. Although including [[Help:Sources|sources]] is in our community's [[Special:Honor Code|Honor Code]], inexperienced genealogists don't always record them. Sometimes the source is "Aunt Mabel." This doesn't mean the information isn't worth preserving or sharing. It's a starting point — information waiting to be confirmed. Like a marathon, this is a competition, but most participants won't be serious competitors. Most of us will be doing it for the challenge of sourcing as many profiles as they can, for the mission, and for the fun of it. We will be hosting live video chats throughout the weekend to cheer each other on. During every chat we will draw a winner for a door prize. Every participant who is online and adding sources during that time will be eligible. All the details are below. This event has ended. Make sure to watch the G2G for our next Thon, in 2022!! == Schedule == The party starts Friday morning, October 4, at 8 AM (ET) and runs until Monday, October 7, at 8 AM (ET). ([https://greenwichmeantime.com/time-zone/usa/eastern-time/eastern-daylight-time/ Eastern Daylight Time] is GMT -4.) Genealogists from all over the world will be participating at the same time. Click here to {{register}} now. The registration cut-off is Wednesday, October 2, at 11:59 pm, ET. '''Registration is now closed.''' == Registration == {{Image|file=WikiTree_Image_Library-8.png |caption=Source-a-Thon "Race Bib" |align=r |size=212 }} You need to {{register}} in advance. You'll be given the Source-a-Thon [[#Badges|badge]] and assigned a race number. We'll use that number to draw the random winners for the many [[#Prizes|door prizes]]. Registration is free. Like everything on WikiTree. === Who can register? === If you're a genealogist who knows [[Help:Sources|what sources are and why they're important]] please join us! To {{register}} you do need to be a WikiTree [[Help:Membership|member]] who has signed the [[Special:Honor Code|Honor Code]]. If you're not already a member, login now. There are a few steps involved to being a [[Help:Membership|Wiki Genealogist]], but it's all just about verifying that you understand [[Help:About WikiTree|what WikiTree is about]] and aren't just in it to get free stuff. === How to register === To register simply post an answer here: {{register}}. Just say "Sign me up!" or whatever and include a few words about your location or genealogical interests. A WikiTree Leader will award the badge and give you a race number. If you're already part of a [[Help:Challenge Teams|team]] from a previous challenge, mention that. For more help with registration, see the [[Help:Source-a-Thon_Tutorial|Source-a-Thon Tutorial]], and if you have any trouble or questions, contact Eowyn at eowyn@wikitree.com. == Teams == Everyone who participates in the Source-a-Thon will be on a team. Teams are just groups of people working together and encouraging each other. Many teams are having fun with this and will be sourcing profiles in the same area, cheering each other on, and otherwise helping each other. === Joining a Team === Any participant can join any existing team. All teams welcome any members who are interested. Current teams are listed here. When you {{register}} you can state in your answer what team you'd like to join. Anyone not on a specific team when registration closes will be assigned to one before the Source-a-Thon begins. ==== New Teams ==== * [[Space:Utah_Pioneers|Utah Pioneers]].

[[Category:Source-a-Thon]] {{Image|file=WikiTree_Images-15.png |align=r |size=m }} == Source-a-What? == This is our fifth annual 72-hour sourcing marathon. The previous four Source-a-Thons have been great fun and very productive. Last year we did almost 60,000. Join us this year to beat that record! The goal of the event is to clear out the [[:Category:Unsourced Profiles|Unsourced Profiles]] category on WikiTree. Although including [[Help:Sources|sources]] is in our community's [[Special:Honor Code|Honor Code]], inexperienced genealogists don't always record them. Sometimes the source is "Aunt Mabel." This doesn't mean the information isn't worth preserving or sharing. It's a starting point — information waiting to be confirmed. Like a marathon, this is a competition, but most participants won't be serious competitors. Most of us will be doing it for the challenge of sourcing as many profiles as they can, for the mission, and for the fun of it. We will be hosting live video chats throughout the weekend to cheer each other on. During every chat we will draw a winner for a door prize. Every participant who is online and adding sources during that time will be eligible. All the details are below. But if it sounds cool already, {{register}} now and get your unique race number. == Schedule == == Registration == {{Image|file=WikiTree_Image_Library-8.png |caption=Source-a-Thon "Race Bib" |align=r |size=212 }} You need to {{register}} in advance. You'll be given the Source-a-Thon [[#Badges|badge]] and assigned a race number. We'll use that number to draw the random winners for the many [[#Prizes|door prizes]]. Registration is free. Like everything on WikiTree. === Who can register? === If you're a genealogist who knows [[Help:Sources|what sources are and why they're important]] please join us! To {{register}} you do need to be a WikiTree [[Help:Membership|member]] who has signed the [[Special:Honor Code|Honor Code]]. If you're not already a member, login now. There are a few steps involved to being a [[Help:Membership|Wiki Genealogist]], but it's all just about verifying that you understand [[Help:About WikiTree|what WikiTree is about]] and aren't just in it to get free stuff. === How to register === To register simply post an answer here: {{register}}. Just say "Sign me up!" or whatever and include a few words about your location or genealogical interests. A WikiTree Leader will award the badge and give you a race number. If you're already part of a [[Help:Challenge Teams|team]] from a previous challenge, mention that. For more help with registration, see the [[Help:Source-a-Thon_Tutorial|Source-a-Thon Tutorial]], and if you have any trouble or questions, contact Eowyn at eowyn@wikitree.com. == Teams == Everyone who participates in the Source-a-Thon will be on a team. Teams are just groups of people working together and encouraging each other. Many teams are having fun with this and will be sourcing profiles in the same area, cheering each other on, and otherwise helping each other. === Joining a Team === Any participant can join any existing team. All teams welcome any members who are interested. Current teams are listed here. When you {{register}} you can state in your answer what team you'd like to join. Anyone not on a specific team when registration closes will be assigned to one before the Source-a-Thon begins. === Current teams === ==== New Teams ==== * [[Space:Mighty_Oaks|Mighty Oaks]] ('''England'''). {{G2GLink|1099126}} Captains: [[Williams-47589|Joan Whitaker]] and [[Langridge-71|Janet Wild]] * [[Space:Dust_Bowlin%27_Daddies_(and_Mommies)|Dust Bowling Daddies (and Mommies)]]''' (eastern) Colorado, Kansas, (eastern) Montana, Nebraska, (northeast) New Mexico, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Dakota and Texas'''.

Anyone can. Teams can be organized around anything. It might be a genealogical research interest or a source you like to use. Or a team can be local. We have participants from all over the world. Coordinating with others from your area can be fun. You might associate a team with a [[Help:Projects|WikiTree project]], such as the [[Project:US Southern Colonies|US Southern Colonies]]. Or it could be something completely unrelated to family history, like [[Space:Mac Interest Group|Mac Users]]. Feel free to choose a fun team name. Create a [https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?action=newspace free-space page] for your team. E-mail eowyn@wikitree.com once this is done so she can add you to the list. You're encouraged to recruit for your team. You might review the G2G posts where members have {{register}}ed to see if anyone mentioned an interest or locality that might fit your team. You could reach out to project e-mail lists or even outside genealogical groups that fit the team's topic. Posting on Facebook would be great. (Tag it @WikiTreers.) Any outreach you do will be helping raise awareness about the Source-a-Thon so it's much appreciated. We do ask that you do not start recruitment posts in G2G separate from the main registration threads. That has led to a lot of confusion in the past. === Team leadership during the Source-a-Thon === Free-space pages are for team coordination, e.g. to list potential sources in their research area and coordinate who will be searching for what, as well as where Aleš will include tables of unsourced profiles specific to your team (if possible). Teams also have "cheer" posts in the G2G where your team members can encourage and cheer each other on. Team members may be able to help each other claim [[Space:Source-a-Thon 2020#Prizes|prizes]]. The way we're doing these drawings, every participant has a good chance to win, but you have to be online when your number is drawn. Team members might want to watch for each other's numbers. During our [[Source-a-Thon Hangouts|periodic video chats]] during the Source-a-Thon we will be talking about how the teams are doing. There will be bragging rights for the most productive teams! == Prizes == Over $2,000 in genealogy prizes will be given away! Winners will be drawn at random in Livecasts that we will be hosting every four hours during the weekend. See [[Source-a-Thon Hangouts]] for the scheduled times. Note that you don't need to video chat to participate, you can just watch and post comments if you like. To be eligible to win you need to: # {{register}} in advance, so you have a race number, and # be online during the drawing and actively participating by adding sources to Unsourced Profiles (see below). We know that many participants won't be online when their number is drawn. The Source-a-Thon is running 24-hours a day for 72 hours straight. If you're online for 72 hours we'll be worried about you! If you're not present when you're number is drawn, you'll have until the next LIveCast starts to claim your prize. Winners will be posted in [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/1116017/did-you-win-a-source-a-thon-prize this G2G message]. If your number is drawn you get to pick from available prizes. You make your selection by posting a reply on the above G2G thread. If you don't claim your prize before the next drawing, your number will go back in the hat. After someone wins and claims a prize, their number will come out of the hat. In other words, you can't win more than one prize. With so many prizes, the odds of winning are good. And the more active you are in the Source-a-Thon, the better your odds become. Here's the current list of door prizes. This list is growing every day! ==== Website Subscriptions ==== * [https://www.familytreewebinars.com/ Family Tree Webinars] (1 year membership) * Annual World Explorer individual membership to [https://www.ancestry.com Ancestry.com] (3) * Annual [https://www.fold3.com Fold3.com] subscription * Annual [https://www.Newspapers.com Newspapers.com] Basic subscription ==== DNA Tests ==== * AncestryDNA kit (courtesy of [https://www.ancestry.com Ancestry.com]) * Family Finder test from FTDNA from a generous WikiTreer (must be a male winner) ==== Gift Certificates/Cards ==== * $25 gift card (courtesy of Carol Baldwin) * "Lunch on Liz" - $25 gift card (She'll join you if you are local to her!

[[Space:Spring Clean-a-Thon Tutorial]] == Clean-a-Thon == Last October we did a [[Source-a-Thon|Source-a-Thon]] and it was great fun. Laura Bozzay [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/351374/wikitree-spring-cleaning-day came up with the idea] for a community clean-up weekend. Our goal for the Spring Clean-a-Thon is to clear out as many [[Project:Database Errors|database errors]] as possible. To make it fun we're having teams and competing to see who can clear out the most. == Schedule == We're starting '''Saturday morning at 12:01 [https://greenwichmeantime.com/time-zone/usa/eastern-time/eastern-daylight-time/ EDT (GMT -4)], April 22'''. The event runs until '''Monday at midnight [https://greenwichmeantime.com/time-zone/usa/eastern-time/eastern-daylight-time/ EDT], April 24'''. We have these set times so that Wiki Genealogists from all over the world will be participating together, at the same time. === Hangouts === We will be hosting live YouTube Hangouts throughout the weekend to cheer each other on and announce prize winners. There will be one every four hours, around the clock. Click [[Spring_Clean-a-Thon_Hangouts|here]] for the Hangout Schedule and viewing links. == Registration https://www.wikitree.com/images/badge/clean_a_thon.gif == You need to [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/380248/will-you-register-for-the-spring-clean-a-thon-4-of-4 register] in advance. '''Sorry, but registration is now closed.''' We'd love your help cleaning, but you won't be eligible for the door prizes, etc. If you have any trouble or questions, contact Eowyn at eowyn@wikitree.com. The cut-off date for registering is April 20, 2017 at 12:01 am. == Teams == Participants will be divided into teams. If you don't choose a team by April 19 (by answering that team's G2G post, see below), you will be assigned a team based on the location or interest you mentioned in your registration post, or randomly. === Forming a Team === Any participant can organize a team. Teams can be organized around anything, or just for fun. They could be location-based, for a surname, related to a [[Projects|project]], or, especially pertinent for the Clean-a-Thon: around a specific error or error group. Team leaders will be expected to post updates on how their team is doing from time to time in the team thread. (This will be posted once the Clean-a-Thon has begun.) What's your idea? Start a team by posting in G2G asking for members, and create a [[Free-Space Profiles|free-space profile]] for your team to communicate on, and for customized error lists to be posted to for your team to use during the Clean-a-Thon. Note: You can only '''be on one team''' and teams are capped at '''20 members''' each, including the Team Leader. === All Teams === ==== Projects ==== * Team [[Space:Musty_and_Dusty_Pre-1500_Spring_Cleaning|The Musty, Dusty Team]], (42748 Errors), {{G2GLink|381549}}, Pre 1500 errors, Leader: [[Lee-5956|Robin Lee]] * Team [[Space:Team_LDS_Project_-_2017_Spring_Clean-a-Thon|LDS Project]], (361+6705 Errors), {{G2GLink|381349}}, LDS Project & Utah errors, Leader: [[Nelson-3486|Jamie Nelson]] ==== Countries ==== * Team [[Space:Team_Australia_-_2017_Clean-a-Thon|Australia]], (25888 Errors), {{G2GLink|381170}}, Australia, Leader: [[Freeth-52|Vicky Majewski]] * Team [[Space:Team_Canada|Canada Cleanup Crew]], (63198 Errors), {{G2GLink|381783}}, Leader: [[Breen-120|Erin Breen]] * Team [[Space:Vliegende_Hollanders_-_Flying_Dutchmen|Flying Dutchmen]], (17568 Errors), {{G2GLink|374108}}, Netherlands, Leader: [[Timmerman-225|Bea Wijma]] * Team [[Space:Spic-n-Span_Scandinavians|Spic-n-Span Scandinavians]], (24594 Errors), {{G2GLink|381104}}, Sweden,Norway,Finland,Denmark, Leader: [[Fiscus-32|Julie Ricketts]] * Team [[Space:SA_Springboks|Springboks South Africa]], (5698 Errors), {{G2GLink|381361}}, South Africa, Leader: [[Coetsee-48|Susan de Bruyn]] * Team [[Space:UKleaners|UKleaners]], (179627 Errors), {{G2GLink|381200}}, United Kingdom, Leader: [[Langholf-2|Eowyn Langholf]] ==== US States ==== * Team [[Space:Massachusetts_600_Team_-_2017_Spring_Clean-a-Thon|Massachusetts 600]], (112734 Errors), {{G2GLink|381162}}, Errors in Massachusetts (mainly 600 Location), Leader: [[Keniston-36|Bob Keniston]] * Team [[Space:New_England_Neatniks|New England Neatniks]], (261434 Errors), {{G2GLink|381195}}, Pennsylvania,PA,New York,NY,Ohio,OH,Connecticut,CT, Leader: [[Langholf-2|Eowyn Langholf]] * Team [[Space:Nor'easters_Team|Nor'Easters]], (170316 Errors), {{G2GLink|381498}}.

Winners will be drawn at random in live YouTube Hangouts that we will be hosting every four hours during the weekend. See [[Spring_Clean-a-Thon#Hangouts|Hangouts]] for the scheduled times. Note that you don't need to video chat to participate, you can just watch and post comments if you like. To be eligible to win you need to: #have registered in advance, and #be online during the drawing. We know that many participants won't be online when their number is drawn. The Clean-a-Thon is running 24-hours a day for 72 hours straight. If you're online for 72 hours we'll be worried about you! If you're not present when your name is drawn, you'll have until the next Hangout starts to claim your shirt. Winning names will be posted at the top of a G2G message that will be linked here. You claim your prize by replying to the G2G post. If you don't claim your shirt before the next drawing, your name will go back in the hat. After someone wins and claims a prize, their name will come out of the hat. In other words, you can't win more than one shirt. == Badges for Winners https://www.wikitree.com/images/badge/clean_a_thon_winner.gif == In addition to the participation badge, the top winners will get the 2017 [https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Special:Badges&id=323 Spring Clean-a-Thon Winner] badge. These winners will include: * The top five overall participants. * The top participant in each error category. * All active participants on the winning team.

[[Category:Clean-a-Thon]] {{Image|file=WikiTree_Images-24.png |align=r |size=m }} == Clean-a-Thon == Since our annual [[Source-a-Thon|Source-a-Thon]] is so much fun, Laura Bozzay [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/351374/wikitree-spring-cleaning-day came up with the idea] for a community clean-up weekend. We held our first Clean-a-Thon in 2017. It was a great success so we're making it an annual event. Our goal for the Spring Clean-a-Thon is to clear out as many [[Project:Database Errors|database suggestions]] as possible. To make it fun we're having teams and competing to see who can clear out the most. == Schedule == We're starting '''Saturday morning at 12:01 [https://greenwichmeantime.com/time-zone/usa/eastern-time/eastern-daylight-time/ EDT (GMT -4)], April 21''', i.e. after midnight Friday night. The event runs until '''Monday at midnight [https://greenwichmeantime.com/time-zone/usa/eastern-time/eastern-daylight-time/ EDT], April 23'''. We have these set times so that Wiki Genealogists from all over the world will be participating together, at the same time. Here is a [https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html time zone calculator] if you need help figuring out the right time in your part of the world. === Video chats === We will be hosting live YouTube video chats throughout the weekend to cheer each other on and announce t-shirt prize winners. There will be a chat every four hours, around the clock, with one winner drawn per chat. You can find the schedule and links to the chats [[Help:Spring_Clean-a-Thon/Video_Chats|here]]. == Registration https://www.wikitree.com/images/badge/clean_a_thon_2018.gif == You need to {{Register}} in advance. Simply post an answer saying "Yes, I'd like to participate" along with what team you'd prefer, if any. If you're not sure about a team, say a few things about your location, genealogical interests, and/or what you like to work on at WikiTree. After you post, a [[Leaders|WikiTree Leader]] will award you the [https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Special:Badges&id=322 2018 Spring Clean-a-Thon] participant badge. To participate you need to be a WikiTree member who has signed the [[Special:Honor Code|Honor Code]]. If you're not already a member, login as a Guest now. You'll be invited to "[[Help:Volunteers|volunteer]]" to help grow WikiTree. There are a few steps involved, but it's all just about verifying that you understand [[Help:About WikiTree|what WikiTree is about]]. The cut-off date for registering is midnight on Thursday, April 19, 2018. If you have any trouble or questions, contact Eowyn at eowyn@wikitree.com. == Teams == For fun, participants are divided into teams. If you don't choose a team (see the list below) you will be assigned one. === Starting a team === Would you like to organize a team? Any participant can lead a team, and everyone who does will get a special 2018 Spring Clean-a-Thon t-shirt. Teams can be organized around anything, or just for fun. They could be location-based, for a popular surname, related to a [[Projects|project]], or around a specific Data Doctor suggestion or error group. Team captains are expected to: * Create a [[Free-Space Profiles|free-space profile]] for your team to communicate on. When the Clean-a-Thon starts we will add customized suggestion lists on team pages for team members to use, e.g. suggestions for Massachusetts profiles to the Team Massachusetts page. * Recruit for your team by replying to members who post on the {{register}} messages asking if they'd like to join your team. * Communicate with team members to encourage them and cheer on the group. * During the Clean-a-Thon, post to the team thread on G2G with updates about how the team is doing. Are you interested in being a team captain? Contact Eowyn at eowyn@wikitree.com and let her know. If you don't have an idea for a team, she can let you know which ones are needed. Notes: * Every participant should be on one and only one team. * Teams can have co-captains (both of whom will get t-shirts) but no more than two. * Teams should have no more than 20-30 members. If a team gets larger than this, we recommend splitting it into two teams, e.g. Team Australia 1 and Team Australia 2. === Current teams === ==== Countries ==== * [[Space:Team_Australia_-_2017_Clean-a-Thon|Team Oz of Australia]]. {{G2GLink|595569}} Captains: [[Freeth-52|Vicky Majewski]] and [[Davey-570|Roger Davey]] * [[Space:Team_Canada|Canada Cleanup Crew]] (for the Canadian Maritimes also see the [[Space:Nor'easters_Team|Nor'Easters]]). {{G2GLink|596186}} Captains: [[Gullison-3|Aaron Gullison]] and [[Daniels-2254|Christine Daniels]] * [[Space:Vliegende_Hollanders_-_Flying_Dutchmen|Flying Dutchmen]] (Netherlands). {{G2GLink|579705}} Captain: [[Timmerman-225|Bea Wijma]] and [[Schellenberger-149|Astrid Schellenberger]] * [[Space:Team_GB-Gen's_Thon_Page|Team GB Gen]] (UK). {{G2GLink|592591}} Captain: [[Haywood-41|Ros Haywood]] * [[Space:The_Kiwi_Crew|Kiwi Crew]] (New Zealand). {{G2GLink|589619}} Captains: [[Thompson-31031|Robynne Lozier]] and [[Olney-518|Graeme Olney]] * [[Space:Sandringham_Strollers|Sandringham Strollers]] (England). {{G2GLink|592887}} Captain: [[Thomas-7679|Gillian Thomas]] * [[Space:Spic-n-Span_Scandinavians|Spic-n-Span Scandinavians]] (Sweden, Norway, Finland, Denmark, Iceland). {{G2GLink|587796}} Captain: [[Fiscus-32|Julie Ricketts]] * [[Space:SA_Springboks|Springboks South Africa]] (South Africa). {{G2GLink|584641}} Captain: [[Heyman-10|Louis Heyman]] and [[Coetsee-48|Susan de Bruyn]] * [[Space:Windsor_Warriors|Windsor Warriors]] (England). {{G2GLink|595658}} Captains: [[MacLeod-1797|Susie MacLeod]] and [[Ling-1181|Wendy Sullivan]] . ==== US states ==== * [[Space:Massachusetts_600_Team_-_2017_Spring_Clean-a-Thon|Massachusetts 600]] (covering errors in Massachusetts profiles, mainly 600 Location suggestions). {{G2GLink|595915}} Captain: [[Keniston-36|Bob Keniston]]. * [[Space:Nor'easters_Team|Nor'Easters]] (covering Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Nova Scotia, Newfoundland, New Brunswick, and Prince Edward Island). {{G2GLink|580188}}Co-captains: [[Whitten-1|Chris Whitten]] and [[Tibbetts-150|Steven Tibbetts]]. * [[Space:Team_O-H-I-O|Team O-H-I-O]]. {{G2GLink|596308}} Captain: [[Bliss-4428|Carla Mascara]]. * [[Space:Southern_Super_Sweepers|Southern Super Sweepers]] (covering Alabama, Arkansas, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Mississippi, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina and Texas). {{G2GLink|580205}} Captains: [[Barry-1264|Dorothy Barry]] and [[Leger-741|Loretta Leger]].

There are five actions: * '''Comment (no change in status)''': This enables you to add a comment without changing the status. * '''Not corrected''': This sets the error as not corrected. It will continue to be shown in all lists. * '''Corrected (hide until next recheck)''': This sets the error as corrected so it will be hidden from error reports until next dump.

[[Category:Clean-a-Thon]] {{Image|file=WikiTree_Images-24.png |align=r |size=m }} == Clean-a-Thon == Since our [[Source-a-Thon|Source-a-Thon]] is so much fun, Laura Bozzay [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/351374/wikitree-spring-cleaning-day came up with the idea] for a community clean-up weekend. We held our first Clean-a-Thon in 2017. It was a great success and it's now an annual event. Our goal for the Clean-a-Thon is to clear out as many [[Project:Database Errors|database suggestions]] as possible. To make it fun we have teams and compete to see who can clear out the most. == Schedule == We're starting '''Friday morning at 8:00 AM [https://greenwichmeantime.com/time-zone/usa/eastern-time/eastern-daylight-time/ EDT (GMT -4)], April 26'''. The event runs until '''Monday at 8:00 AM [https://greenwichmeantime.com/time-zone/usa/eastern-time/eastern-daylight-time/ EDT], April 29'''. We have these set times so that Wiki Genealogists from all over the world will be participating together, at the same time. Here is a [https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html time zone calculator] if you need help figuring out the right time in your part of the world. === Video chats === We will be hosting live YouTube video chats throughout the weekend to cheer each other on and announce t-shirt prize winners. There will be a chat every three hours, around the clock, with one winner drawn per chat. You can find the schedule and links to the chats [[Help:Spring_Clean-a-Thon/Video_Chats|here]]. You can also add the schedule via [[:Category:DNA|Google Calendar]] to get reminders. == Registration https://www.wikitree.com/images/badge/clean_a_thon_2019.gif == You need to {{register}} in advance. Simply post an answer saying "Yes, I'd like to participate" along with what team you'd prefer, if any. If you're not sure about a team, say a few things about your location, genealogical interests, and/or what you like to work on at WikiTree. After you post, a [[Project Leaders|WikiTree Project Leader]] will award you the [https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Special:Badges&b=clean_a_thon_2019 2019 Spring Clean-a-Thon] participant badge. To participate you need to be a WikiTree member who has signed the [[Special:Honor Code|Honor Code]]. If you're not already a member, login as a Guest now. You'll be invited to "[[Help:Volunteers|volunteer]]" to help grow WikiTree. There are a few steps involved, but it's all just about verifying that you understand [[Help:About WikiTree|what WikiTree is about]]. The cut-off date for registering is midnight on Wednesday, April 24, 2019. If you have any trouble or questions, contact Eowyn at eowyn@wikitree.com. == Teams == For fun, participants are divided into teams. If you don't choose a team (see the list below) you will be assigned one. === Starting a team === Would you like to organize a team? Teams can be organized around anything, or just for fun. They could be location-based, for a popular surname, related to a [[Projects|project]], or around a specific Data Doctor suggestion or error group. Team captains are expected to: * Create a [[Free-Space Profiles|free-space profile]] for your team to communicate on. When the Clean-a-Thon starts we will add customized suggestion lists on team pages for team members to use, e.g. suggestions for Massachusetts profiles to the Team Massachusetts page. * Recruit for your team by replying to members who post on the {{register}} messages asking if they'd like to join your team. * Communicate with team members to encourage them and cheer on the group. * During the Clean-a-Thon, post to the team thread on G2G with updates about how the team is doing. Are you interested in being a team captain? Contact Eowyn at eowyn@wikitree.com and let her know. If you don't have an idea for a team, she can let you know which ones are needed. Notes: * Every participant should be on one and only one team. * Teams can have co-captains. * Aleš can offer weighted team statistics (number of contributions divided by number of team members) so we will not be splitting teams this time. === Current teams === ==== Countries ==== * [[Space:Team_Australia_-_2017_Clean-a-Thon|Team Australia]]. {{G2GLink|787332}} Captain: [[Watson-15643|Kathleen Cobcroft]]. * [[Space:Team_Canada|Canada Cleanup Crew]] (for the Canadian Maritimes also see the [[Space:Nor'easters_Team|Nor'Easters]]). {{G2GLink|787453}} Co-captains: [[Gullison-3|Aaron Gullison]] and [[Daniels-2254|Christine Daniels]] * [[Space:Vliegende_Hollanders_-_Flying_Dutchmen|Flying Dutchmen]] (Netherlands). {{G2GLink|788083}} Captain: [[Timmerman-225|Bea Wijma]] and [[Schellenberger-149|Astrid Schellenberger]] * Team [[Space:Team_GB-Gen%27s_Thon_Page|GB-Gen]] ('''Great Britain''').

There are five actions: * '''Comment (no change in status)''': This enables you to add a comment without changing the status. * '''Not corrected''': This sets the error as not corrected. It will continue to be shown in all lists. * '''Corrected (hide until next recheck)''': This sets the error as corrected so it will be hidden from error reports until next dump. After that it will be shown again if it was not actually corrected. * '''False error (hide forever)''': This sets the error as a false error. It will be hidden from WikiTree+ error reports forever. * '''Proposed merge (hide for 30 days)''': This hides the error for 30 days thus giving a [[Merging|merge]] time to be completed. The error will be hidden from prepared error lists.

The Clean-a-Thon is running 24-hours a day for 72 hours straight. If you're online for 72 hours we'll be worried about you! Every participant can get only one t-shirt, therefore: * If you win a drawing, you can't win again. * Clean-a-Thon winners will only get one shirt. == Badges for Winners https://www.wikitree.com/images/badge/clean_a_thon_winner_2019.gif == In addition to the participation badge, the top winners will get the 2019 [https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Special:Badges&id=413 Spring Clean-a-Thon Winner] badge.

[[Category:Clean-a-Thon]] {{Image|file=WikiTree_Images-24.png |align=r |size=m }} == Clean-a-Thon == The Clean-a-Thon is an annual community clean-up weekend. Our mission: clear out as many [[Project:Data_Doctors|Data Doctor suggestions]] as possible. To make it fun we have teams and compete to see who can clear out the most. == Schedule == We're starting '''Friday morning at 8:00 AM [https://greenwichmeantime.com/time-zone/usa/eastern-time/eastern-daylight-time/ EDT (GMT -4)], April 24'''. The event runs until '''Monday at 8:00 AM [https://greenwichmeantime.com/time-zone/usa/eastern-time/eastern-daylight-time/ EDT], April 27'''. We have these set times so that Wiki Genealogists from all over the world will be participating together, at the same time. Here is a [https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html time zone calculator] if you need help figuring out the right time in your part of the world. === Video chats === We will be hosting live YouTube/Facebook video chats throughout the weekend to cheer each other on and announce t-shirt prize winners. There will be a chat every four hours, around the clock, with one winner drawn per chat. You can find the schedule and links to the chats [[Help:Spring_Clean-a-Thon/Video_Chats|here]]. You can also add the schedule via [[:Category:DNA|Google Calendar]] to get reminders. == Registration https://www.wikitree.com/images/badge/clean_a_thon_2020.gif == You need to {{register}} in advance. Simply post an answer saying "Yes, I'd like to participate" along with what team you'd prefer, if any. If you're not sure about a team, say a few things about your location, genealogical interests, and/or what you like to work on at WikiTree. After you post, a [[Project Leaders|WikiTree Project Leader]] will award you the [https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Special:Badges&b=clean_a_thon_2020 2020 Spring Clean-a-Thon] participant badge. To participate you do need to be a WikiTree [[Help:Membership|member]] who has signed the [[Special:Honor Code|Honor Code]]. If you're not already a member, login now. There are a few steps involved to being a [[Help:Membership|Wiki Genealogist]], but it's all just about verifying that you understand [[Help:About WikiTree|what WikiTree is about]]. The cut-off date for registering is midnight on Wednesday, April 22, 2020. If you have any trouble or questions, contact Eowyn at eowyn@wikitree.com. == Teams == For fun, participants are divided into teams. If you don't choose a team (see the list below) you will be assigned one. === Starting a team === Would you like to organize a team? Teams can be organized around anything, or just for fun. They could be location-based, for a popular surname, related to a [[Projects|project]], or around a specific Data Doctor suggestion or error group. Team captains are expected to: * Create a [[Free-Space Profiles|free-space profile]] for your team to communicate on. When the Clean-a-Thon starts we will add customized suggestion lists on team pages for team members to use, e.g. suggestions for Massachusetts profiles to the Team Massachusetts page. * Recruit for your team by replying to members who post on the {{register}} messages asking if they'd like to join your team. * Communicate with team members to encourage them and cheer on the group. * During the Clean-a-Thon, post to the team thread on G2G with updates about how the team is doing. Are you interested in being a team captain? Contact Eowyn at eowyn@wikitree.com and let her know. If you don't have an idea for a team, she can let you know which ones are needed. Notes: * Every participant should be on one and only one team. * Teams can have co-captains. * Aleš can offer weighted team statistics (number of contributions divided by number of team members) so we will not be splitting teams this time. === Current teams === ==== New Teams ==== * [[Space:Twisted_Thistles|Twisted Thistles]] '''Scotland'''. {{G2GLink|1010973}} Captains: [[Mason-10934|Sarah Mason]] and [[Madison-125|Bobbie Hall]] ==== Countries ==== * [[Space:The_Wizards_of_Aus|Wizards of Aus]] ('''Australia''').

The record supplied by Maria Lohrenz Dalke says it was Aug. 8th, and the book called "Index to Mennonite Immigrants on United States Passenger lists 1872-190?" compiled and edited by David A Haury says it was Aug. 5, 1875. The boat docked at Antwerp New York. Diedrich had a brother Heinrich who came later on the Switzerland and arrived June 24, 1879. They came from Antwerp, Belgium and landed in Philadelphia, Penn. Both brothers first settled near Hampton, Nebr."(Alice Stephens Thomsen) '''Janzen Name and their Mennonite Relationship''' (Alice Stephens Thomsen) "Origin of the surname Janzen : This particular Janzen family is originally from the Netherlands; they were Dutch Mennonites. The people of Molotschna Colony, in South Russia were followers of a man named "Menno Simons" (1496-1561) whom the Mennonite faith is named after. Menno Simons was originally from Holland, and was influential in both Holland, and northern Germany. Janzen is one of the most widespread Mennonite family names of Dutch-Prussian background, derived from Jan (Johann, John) a given name, to which is added "zon" (zen, sen, etc.), the combination meaning "son of John." The name was very common among the Dutch Mennonites and found its way into the congregations bordering the Netherlands such as Krefeld , Gronau , and East Friesland. It was also common in Schleswig-Holstein and Prussia , where it was represented in the congregations of Elbing , Königsberg , Tiegenhagen , Ladekopp , Rosenort, Fürstenwerder , Heubuden , Tiensdorf, Orlofferfelde, Schönsee, Jeziorka, Deutsch-Kazun , etc. The name appears first on record in Danzig in 1568. From Prussia it was transplanted to Russia and later to North America, where it is found in most of the settlements started after 1874, and, later still, to South America. A branch of this name was transplanted from the Lower Rhine to Pennsylvania , where it was changed into Johnson. Jacob H. Janzen (1878-1950) was an outstanding church leader (General Conference Mennonite Church) and teacher both in Russia and Canada . He was also a pioneer Mennonite author composing at least 38 published writings. Krahn, Cornelius. "Janzen (Jantzen, Janssen, Jansson, Jansen, Johnson, Jansz, Janz, Jantz, Jans) family."

== WikiTree Challenge Week 20 == '''Guest Star''': [[Goodwin-8677|Nathan Goodwin]] ;'''What got you interested in genealogy?''' :I started doing genealogy when I was about 12 years old. I first became interested in my maternal grandmother's maiden name, Dengate as the family had lived locally to me in Hastings for several generations and prior to that in the villages not too far away. My Nan was one of those wonderful people who kept everything relating to the family and who wrote on the backs of photographs, so I used to sit down and copy out the family tree, matching names to photographs but generally not having a clue what I was doing. From about 14 I started to interview elderly relatives but unfortunately asked the wrong questions, focussing on names and dates rather than information that couldn't be gleaned from records. That got me hooked and I haven't looked back! ;'''Who is your favorite ancestor?''' :Tricky to think of just a single ancestor as my favourite. I hope the rest won't be offended, though, when I choose my great great grandmother, Louisa Roakes. The vast majority (as you will find) of my family came from southern England and were white and involved in various labouring / agricultural work so Louisa, who was of mixed race and who hailed from the tiny Atlantic island of St Helena stands out for me. She married a soldier stationed on the island in 1887 and, according to her marriage certificate she was 17 years old. In fact, she was just 15. Soon after the marriage, she and my great great grandfather, Samuel Angus Ellingham left the island and settled in Bedfordshire, England. I've been able to trace south-Asian and east African DNA to her, which very likely came from slavery as the East India Company procurred their slaves from this area, taking them to work on St Helena. ;'''Any interesting stories to share that you found out about your family?''' :Well, one of my great great great grandfather's was called Silas Thomas. He was one of those white agricultural types that I just mentioned but he was a little bit naughty. In 1863 he was working on a farm in his home village of Mountfield, East Sussex when another labourer discovered a small horde of metal objects and rings, believing them to have been made of brass. He showed the metal to Silas, who paid him five shillings and six pence (about £15 today) for it, taking it to his brother-in-law, Stephen Willett, who was a blacksmith. At some point, assuming he didn't already know, Silas discovered that the items were actually made of gold and sold them to a London merchant for £529, which is more than £25,000 in today's money. Unfortunately for Silas, the police had some other pieces from the horde and began to launch an investigation, eventually arresting Silas and Stephen. The gold was found to have been more than 2,000 years old and, much to my embarrassment as an historian, they had it all melted down! Sorry, history. Their trial was quite sensational for the time and the pair were subsequently sent to Lewes Gaol with an open-ended sentence. According to a newspaper article in 1864, a piano teacher named Mrs Kirby wrote to Queen Victoria on the men's behalf, asking for clemency. If the story is to be believed, then the Queen asked her private secretary to have the men released. They were let out of prison having served 11 months and, to the best of my knowledge, stayed out of trouble! In fact, Silas Thomas went on to become an upstanding member of the Hastings Salvation Army. ;'''When did you first discover WikiTree?''' :It was probably about two or three years ago, I think. I run the Dengate One-Name Study / DNA Project at FTDNA and the website has helped me with several branches of the Dengate family and I've found photographs that don't exists anywhere else online. ;'''What are your current brick walls?''' :I have four main ones, where I've actively tried to research them several times but where I get nowhere fast. #The family lines that settled on St Helena (Louisa Roakes' ancestors). The island has no indiginous population and it only became settled from the 1600s, mainly from England. Unfortunately, there aren't too many off-island records. The names there are Roakes, Everton and Carr. #My 2xgreat grandfather, James Cole. Various census entries offer confusing birth dates and locations. His name appears variously as George James Cole / James George Cole or just James Cole. #Smiths! My 2x great grandfather was George Augustus Smith from the Battersea area of Surrey (now London). I've chased him up a false line already as there were two people with exactly this name born close together in time and location. Family legend has it that he only had one sister, Lizzie who lost her leg aged 5 and who married but her husband 'died young.' I'm stuck! #My main brickwall and the one which, given my job writing about professional genealogists is the most embarrassing: my Goodwin line! My 4x great grandfather was called Thomas Goodwin. He was born around the 1780s but there are so many Thomas Goodwins in the Westminster / Middlesex area that I can't pin down which one he is. I've tried using DNA but it's on the very edge of being possible and so far I've only been able to confirm links between me and some of his other children. The parishes in this area (now greater London) were huge, which doesn't help. ;'''What do you hope to see in participating in the WikiTree challenge?''' :Well, obviously any of those brick walls being knocked down would be amazing! Other than that, any lines that can be developed would be great! === Documents === === Photographs === : Note: Please check with your captains, [[Langridge-71|Janet Wild]] and [[Williams-47589|Joan Whitaker]], if there are any questions about the images being protected by copyright.

Use only the main word in the last name field. * Before 1811 we need to find sources in church books. That is harder than finding sources after 1811 as all needed to go to the town hall to register birth, marriage and death. Use WhoWasWho and OpenArch and you will probably find what you are looking for. * Records are in Dutch, Latin or French. * The eldest son is named after the father's father, the second son after mother's father, the first daughter after the mother's mother, the second daughter after the father's mother. * '''All''' given names are put in the first name field. There are no middle names, so please select the "no middle name" status. * Women are mentioned using their maiden name in records, so don't use the husband's surname as Current Last Name. * In the Napoleontic era (1806–1813) the BMD documents are in French. Suddenly all the Jans become Jean, Pieters become Pierre and Hendriks become Henri, and Willem who becomes Guillaume. * [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Brouwer-634 Example Profile 1] and [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Goulooze-91 Example Profile 2]. == Tell Us What You Found!! == * Primary source for marriage of [https://marijnissen.netherlandsgenealogy.com/getperson.php?personID=I1254&tree=brabant Willemijna Deonisius van Eersel], see [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Van_Eersel-7 her WT profile] * Some details on [https://marijnissen.netherlandsgenealogy.com/getperson.php?personID=I1254&tree=brabant Wilhelmina's death] (residence, age, informants), see [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Van_Eersel-7 her WT profile] * Small correction for [[Roerdink_Lho-1|Berendina (Roerdink Lho) te Loo (1785-1821)]]. Yvette has her down as being baptised or born about 4 April 1785 but she was actually born on the 4th and baptised on the 10th. Confusion caused by the fact that the baptismal records are in order of date of birth rather than the usual date of baptism. * Burial date and place for [[Antonius-21|Lambertus (Antonius) Lochten (bef.1626-bef.1705)]] * Original source of the marriage of [[Lamberti-36|Joannes (Lamberti) van der Logt (bef.1676-bef.1752)]] to Jenneken Cornelis Jan marten Geerts in Rijsbergen. Yvette has on her website a statement that correspondence with someone is the source. * Death certificate of [[Kastein-19|Hendrika (Kastein) van't Hul]] who immigrated to the United States. She died in 1921 in Sioux Center, Iowa. * On https://www.netherlandsgenealogy.com/ Yvette has Gert Woordes (I17662) as the son of Jan Woordes and Stijnken Gorkink. However, since he names his firstborn daughter Gaeken, it seems more likely that Gert is a son of Jan Wordes (I29086) and Gaeken ter Wijssche. Also witness for this baptism is Geertken Veltkamp (same name as 2nd wife of this Jan Wordes). * According to her marriage record with Maarte Trouw, Lijsbet Cornelisse Luijcks was born in Ruckven (Rucphen). * primary source for baptism of [[Luijts-3|Johannes Baptista Luijts]] was found. * In 1755 and 1756 the heirs of Jan Backx, including [[Bax-245|Klasijn Backx]] (assisted by her husband Hendrick Luijts), sell property in Weelde. https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3QHK-Q3PZ-Y4V2?i=452&cat=51957 and https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3QHK-Q3PZ-Y4K2?i=454&cat=51957 === Interesting Finds === :List interesting finds to share with the guest at the end of the week *When [[Trouw-89|Martinus Trouw (1822-1868)]] married he handed over a written declaration of the local doctor that is mother was insane and therefor not able to express her will about his marriage. * [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Trouw-79 Cornelis Trouw] went to prison for a day probably because he was peddling without a permit (overtreding afh voerwaren). We know his cause of death: crouposa pneumonia and paralysis cordis * [[Van_der_Sande-72|Gijsbertus van der Sande]]: In 1810, Gijs van der Sanden is registered as aged 46, born in Loon op Zand, married with 3 children, Catholic religion and a '''shoemaker ("cordonnier")''' by profession. He seems to be living with or next to his parents in law Jacobus Dirkze and Cornelia van Gulik and their children Jacobus and Johanna Dirkze. His wife Katharina Dirkse is registered as aged 36, born in Loon op Zand, married with 3 children, a shoemaker's wife. His son Adrianus grew up to be a shoemaker as well. * [[Van_Nijkerken-5|Gerrit Jan van Nijkerken]] was a mason, the same as his father. He was born, married, and died in Winterswijk, Nederland. (Willemina Berendina van Nijkerken line) * [[Oomen-46|Petronella Oomen (1823-1906)]] was only 2,5 hours old when her father showed her to the municalipty registration on 20th september 1823 as proof that she was born. I hope they lived close by...... (born 13.30, registration office 16.00) * [[Van_der_Loght-1|Marinus van der Loght]] was looked over by a small group of people. He had three wives so the records were checked carefully to make sure it was the same man. Marinus was a carpenter. His third wife survived him by almost two years. (Maria Verstraeten Line) * [[Pemen-35|Joannes Pemen (1750-1812)]] and his first wife Catharina Hop had a child that's not on Yvettes tree: [[Pemen-36|Joannes Pemen]] baptized on 15 feb 1776 in Princenhage, Noord-Brabant.

== WikiTree Challenge Week 26 == '''Guest Star''': [[Ross-18695|Jarrett Ross]] === From Jarrett === :This is additional information that Jerritt forgot to mention during the Livecast. This information will need to be verified but could be some great clues. * A cousin of mine who grandson of Isadore Rosenberg (brother of my great-grandfather Harry Ross) told me a story conveyed to him by his grandfather Isadore. Supposedly the Rosenbergs lived in England before the US and they had a child there who either died or was kidnapped, and that was supposedly why they immigrated to the US. Only thing I have found that substantiates the claim is the 1900 census shows they had 4 total children with only 3 living. *In an interview by my cousin, my great grandmother Jennie recounts how she met my great grandfather Morris. She says that her cousin Frances Barron introduced them. I have no clue how Frances Barron could be related. A newspaper clipping in Boston about a wedding lists Jennie, her sister Dora, her uncle Abraham, and a Frances Barron as guests at the wedding. Based on that clipping I believe that family is somehow related (likely through Jennie's mother) but have never been able to prove it, even through DNA. I have been in touch with multiple descendants of that other family who supplied lots of information. **Full video of family interview with TONS of information for the entire family tree - [https://youtu.be/MH1GU5lSe58 Videos]. **Family Tree of the 'Frances Barron' who might be this cousin - [https://www.geni.com/people/Fannie-Brandes/6000000081287033874 Cousin's Tree]. *My Uncle told me that when he was young, his grandfather Jack Ecoff told him that the family name was not actually Ecoff. Supposedly someone had been sent off from Russia to Germany for school and the person they stayed with was named Ecoff (more likely some variation of Ecoff), so they adopted the name.

== WikiTree Challenge Week 28 == '''Guest Star''': [[Kessler-2015|Louis Kessler]] === From Louis === :I am researching my 4 grandparent lines, my father's stepfather and first wife lines, and my wife's 4 grandparent lines. I have links to them on [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Kessler-2015 my profile page]. :Here are what I consider my 5 most important brick walls that I think all you WikiTreers might be able to help me with and I really hope you can: # My father's step-father [[Kessler-2424|Louis (Kessler) Kesler (abt.1878-1940)]] and his first wife [[Katkow-1|Sarah (Katkow) Kessler (abt.1876-1929)]] is a complete roadblock to me. I know so little. Neither had children and I don't know of any living relatives. I can't confirm where Ogec or Dolasoi is. They aren't blood relatives, so DNA doesn't even help. I've added just about everything I know to their profiles. # My father's mother's uncle: [[Segal-491|Louis Segal (1870-)]] and his wife Sophie/Shifra and their daughter Sarah. I didn't get around to adding profiles for Sophie or Sarah, but I give everything about them in Louis' profile. The biggest question for the US experts: What happened to them in Florida? And for the England experts: are there any more England records for them than just the 1911 Census? This information is important enough and is such a brick wall to me that I think you should earn bounty points on it if you find that Sarah has a husband and family (Mindy?) But even If not, you'd still be really helping me out. You might, after all, be finding me new living cousins that I never knew existed. # My wife's Rothschild connection: [[Rothschild-772|Tsipora Rothschild (1833-)]] - She was said to be related to the famous Jewish Rothschild family of Europe. I have not been able to find the connection from Tsipora to them. That would be amazing if someone could. # My mother's father [[German-1103|Joseph German (1885-1959)]] came from Mezhirichi, Rivne, Volhynia, in the Russian Empire ... or so I have always thought. The problem is that the records a researcher, Viktoria Chymshyt, has obtained from there (see below) did not include any surnames I recognized, not even any of the surnames of the 100 or so people from that town that came to Winnipeg. So do I have the right town? Some people spell the town name as Miedzerich or Mezerich and say it was in Poland. All towns of that name or a similar name before 1915 were in the Russian Empire, but many of the towns, including Mezhirichi in Volhynia became part of Poland by 1930 for a period of time. In my family tree at MyHeritage, I include all people who were born in Mezhirichi that moved to Winnipeg and their families with the goal of one day piecing them all together. Determining if I have the correct Mezhirichi will go a long way to finding records for my family and the others who came to Winnipeg. # My father's father [[Braunstein-75|Leib Braunstein (1889-1924)]] was born in Romania, but the family moved to a Jewish area near the town of Eskisehir in Turkey before he came to Canada. I have been unable to find any significant information about the Jewish community in Turkey where they stayed and I'd love to know more. :I also have other "Unsolved Mysteries" listed on My Family Research and Unsolved Mysteries page at: https://www.lkessler.com/myfamily.shtml :The rest of my lines and my wife's lines are a little more difficult because they go back to Russia or Romania. There are a lot of records available, but very few records are translated, indexed and online. I have obtained Russian and Romanian records on some of my lines from researchers who have photographed collections in the Ukraine and Romania and have provided records to me with their translations. I had started adding links to these records onto my profiles but I have not finished. Below are links to all the records and translations I have obtained which are on my OneDrive. The translations are good enough to give you all the info that's needed. If any of you can read Russian or Romanian, I would not expect you'd find much more than what's already translated. I'm sure these documents will be different from anything many of you have seen before, so I hope you find them interesting: * Braunstein records, town Tecuci, Romania, from Gheorghe Mireuta. I've already included links to these from my Braunstein ancestors' profiles, but I've only done some of the siblings' profiles. https://1drv.ms/u/s!AoxUJ3_EXYNOi4YaKh53jovs3lVsRQ?e=EEBdqO * Focsaner/Zvoristeanu, Naftulovici and Sigal record, Botosani region of Romania, from Sorin Goldenberg. I got a lot of records here that were extremely important in extending this side of my family. On WikiTree, I have included many of the ancestors I learned about from these records, but I have not entered very many of their siblings. https://1drv.ms/u/s!AoxUJ3_EXYNOi4Ybf-tZc5bloBFuPg?e=mTObNF * German/Herman records, town Mezhyrichi, from Victoria Chymshyt, but nothing found that we could confirm as my relatives: https://1drv.ms/u/s!AoxUJ3_EXYNOkLpxB9N0QhFAceruQQ?e=zlxied * Goretsky, and my wife's maternal Furman and Muchnik sides, central Ukraine (then Russia), from Boris Makalsky. The spreadsheet "Furman Muchnik Goretsky Documents from Boris Makalsky" has my summary of all the records here. https://1drv.ms/u/s!AoxUJ3_EXYNOkrR-PkNle8znceGGiA?e=HJNcfU - Boris says the Rushaylo name [[Rushaylo-1|Charna Rushaylo (1864-)]] is very rare and every single Rushaylo is related. It would be interesting if you could connect my wife's Rushaylo family to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vladimir_Rushailo Vladimir Rushailo]. :The remaining families are: *my wife's paternal grandfather [[Kushner-225|Ralph Harry Kushner (1883-1927)]] in the town of Lukashivka, Russia. I figure I will eventually need to find records there as well, but there may be something of interest about his Lerman half-family that should be findable, since they ended up in the United States. *my wife's paternal grandmother [[Zaslowsky-1|Yetta Zaslowsky (1884-1926)]] in the town of Tetiiv, Russia. No records yet on that side. My wife's cousin Terry Lasky wrote the "Zaslawsky Family History" in 2013. It is unpublished and not online because it includes information about living people. I got most of my information from Terry's research. He's doing a DNA study with 55 Zaslawsky descendents from 6 possible Zaslawsky siblings, including Yetta's father. That study is still going on. This is a big family and many descendants ended up in the United States except for Yetta, her brother Jacob and Peter who went to Winnipeg. There should be a lot of information that can be gleaned from those who ended up in the States. :Also, I have two cousins on my Focsaner/Zvoristeanu, Naftulovici sides. We have been sharing our research but do have slightly different trees from different sources. My cousin [https://www.ancestry.ca/family-tree/tree/76048307/family/familyview?cfpid=44394092312 Joel Koenig has his tree on Ancestry], and my cousin [https://www.familysearch.org/tree/pedigree/portrait/G9KS-68K Phil Rodd adds his data to FamilySearch]. : If you don't know where to start, I'd suggest starting at the siblings and childrens of my ancestors who emigrated from Russia or Romania. Most would have emigrated to the United States or Canada, some to France, Israel and other places, and you should find good records for them there. I am very interested in the stories of all the siblings and children of my ancestors, and their information may provide clues about their parents who never left. : Have fun. I'm sure you'll find it very different, but I hope you also find it very interesting. And I'm really looking forward to see what you collectively put together. : And I promise I won't peek during my week. === Documents === === Photographs === : Note: Please check with your captain, [[McBeth-165|Emma MacBeath]], if there are any questions about the images being protected by copyright. * ''add image link here'' === '''Resources''' === :''Locations: [[Wikipedia:Romania|Romania]], [[Wikipedia:Turkey|Turkey]], [[Wikipedia:Ukraine|Ukraine]] :'''Romania''': * [https://genealogyindexer.org/ Romania Genealogy Indexer] * [https://www.familysearch.org/wiki/en/Germany_Handwriting Romania: Germany Handwriting] * [https://www.jewishgen.org/Hungary/ Romania: JewishGen.org] ''For people with Jewish roots in "Greater Hungary" * [https://www.familysearch.org/wiki/en/Romania_Letter_Writing_Guide Romania Letter Writing Guide] ''This has spellings for some common words used * [https://www.familysearch.org/wiki/en/img_auth.php/6/64/Romanian_Genealogical_Research.pdf Romania Research Tips] * [https://www.familysearch.org/wiki/en/Summary_of_Records_in_Romania Romania: Summary of records]: ''Lists what years certain records are available for :'''Turkey''': : Unfortunately, the tradition of keeping a lineage and writing a family tree is almost non-existent in Turkish society.

Sophie's parents, brother, and three of her sisters died as victims of the Holocaust. Only Sophie and her sister Elsie fled in time and lived with family in Canada. *Louis' grand uncle [[Braunstein-86|Marcu Braunstein]] applied and received a land patent for a homestead in Saskatchewan. He became a Canadian citizen on 11 October 1905, which is referenced in the file. There is a letter from Marcu in the file that stated a correction be made on on his name from "Marcu Breunstein" to "Marcu Braunstein". *Louis' great uncle [[Braunstein-83|David Braunstein]] also applied for and received a homestead in Saskatchewan. He became a Canadian citizen on 22 August 1911. His application for the patent confirms that his wife and child joined him to live on the homestead in the middle of April 1910. *A possible match for the arrival passenger list for [[Reiner-506|Jennie (Reiner) Olander]] was found. There is a female Braunstein who immigrated with an infant child and travelled with a Mrs. Hanna? Cohen and her children in February 1910 on the SS Corinithian. They arrived at St. John, New Brunswick. They were both headed towards Lipton. A Moses Cohen provided an affidavit in David's homestead file and testified that his wife and two children joined him on the homestead in April 1910 (same timeframe as Jennie and her child). https://www.ancestry.ca/imageviewer/collections/1263/images/IMCANQC1865_T4821-00203?treeid=&personid=&hintid=&queryId=cdba40983b8007f0c752768b64cae0db&usePUB=true&_phsrc=DFd7&_phstart=successSource&usePUBJs=true&_ga=2.58429161.238701552.1626563816-314997107.1626014134&pId=5190228&lang=en-CA *Death record, find grave memorial, and photo found for [[Braunstein-83|David Braunstein]].

Her brother Peter Hyland married Elizabeth Bannon. It appears that they married on the same day as they appear in the same register entry. A copy of the marriage record was found online which revealed where in Ireland they were from. Both Mary Ann and William were from Queens County (now County Laois). *[[Martin-16766|James S.

The charge was dismissed. Also accused was Michael Delaney. Delaney was Peter's mothers maiden name. *[[Foshee-211|Benjamin Foshee]] was sued for debt at least five times mostly in 1848-50, right before he married Sarah Neely. Sarah Neely's father George did not leave Sarah or her Foshee children anything in his will, but did mention her children from her first marriage "the children of Addison Grant, my Grandchildren". And left them money in trust. He likely did not approve of Sarah's second marriage. *[[King-46907|Charles King Jr]], Drew's uncle was killed in a homicide in 1869. He and a man named Thomas Patterson met on his way home an engaged in an argument that turned deadly.

== WikiTree Challenge Week 33 == '''Guest Star''': [[Talbott-290|Lisa Lisson]] === Notes From Lisa === * I have several brick walls. Don't we all! :) [[Barrett-559|Joanna Barrett]] (b. 1824 Ireland) is my highest priority. Joanna Barrett - brick wall - Came over from Ireland and had the child here and then died, but doesn't line up for her. She thinks younger Joanna was born out of wedlock. She was said to have preserved her husband in a pickle barrel when he died on the ship on the way to the US. Lisa also wants to know how she ended up married to Richard and how they were close enough to get married * [[Haley-207|Jesse Haley]] (b. ~1800 in Halifax County, VA) and King Elliott (b. 1796 in NC/VA) (father of [[Elliott-864|Elias Elliott]] are two other tough ones, I've been working on. She has document's in Virginia all the way back to Jessie - only missing 9 years of his life. She believes that his father may have died when he was very young. He does not appear in any of their records. Has disproved what other trees say about him. * Here's a link to a "[https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/3z9rsfy0gpmbflfewqvpw/Joanna-White-Report.doc?dl=0&rlkey=gw7a5fit6g3wa09bzcw46xq30 report]" I wrote to myself about '''Joanna Barrett Wilmoth'''. I wrote it several years ago, but I really haven't made any progress since then. I'd love to extend that line back and also determine who is the father of her first child, also named Joanna. * I don't have [a report] for '''King Elliott''', for reference, they lived close to the Halifax County/Mecklenburg County, VA border and the NC/VA border. I have a number of paper records, I haven't uploaded yet for collateral family members. I will say all other researchers claim he died in 1831, but I do have a tax record for him as late as 1838. *Emma DeLa Thomas is her 2nd great grandma. - She has her father Shepherd and Mary. She went by her mother's name and she has the family bible, confirmed by her death records Oral history by several histories that her father was LaMarr Shepherd.

She died in 1874 and the proceedings continued until 1882! * [[Lett-15|Andrew J. "A.J." Lett]] was a witness to his neighbors claim against the United States government. According to the suit, 900 pounds of bacon, 3 barrels of flour, 20 barrels of corn, 44 gallons of syrup, 15 chickens, and 200 pounds of fodder were taken from Nehemiah Dickens with no compensation or voucher, for use by the Army. The claim was filed as "disallowed." * [[Holyfield-187|Valentine Holyfield]] and his commonly confused cousin [[Holyfield-111|Lewis Valentine Holyfield]] could not have lead more different lives. Whilst Valentine spent his life in Surry County and served as a Private in the Confederate Army from 1861-1862 (he was captured at the Battle of Roanoke Island), Lewis became a postmaster in Orleans, Polk County, Missouri and served in the Union Army before settling down in Montgomery County, Kansas. * [[Mayo-246|William Mayo (1684-1744)]] May be the famous man who surveyed the dividing line between Virginia and North Carolina. There seems to be some dispute whether it is this William Mayo or another who had also been in Barbados. This line appears to go back through Barbados to the Mayo family in Wiltshire, England. No migration record found, but there are parish records to support the given lines. * Fourth great grandfather [[Wilmoth-26|Lott Wilmoth]] applied for homestead exemption in Surry, North Carolina. In 1869, Lott received a homestead exemption for a tract of land: 60 acres on the waters of Mitchell's River adjoining W.R. Wilmoth [likely his son William Richard] and others. He also claimed certain personal property to help avoid these items being sold off by creditors. More information on homestead exemption in North Carolina can be found here: https://scholarship.law.unc.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?referer=&httpsredir=1&article=1799&context=nclr * Fourth great-grandfather [[Thomas-3495|Anderson Thomas (1807-aft.1880)]] was both a slave owner and a self-proclaimed "Union Man" during the American Civil War.

I have added a map and details of the history of the castle to the profiles for her GGGgrandfather [[Corcoran-1534|John Corcoran]] and of his probable brother [[Corcoran-2015|Peter Corcoran]]. [[Waldron-201|Waldron-201]] 21:18, 26 September 2021 (UTC) *The death date for Great Uncle, [[Corcoran-2011|Peter Corcoran (1884-1967)]] is incorrect in Melanie's tree. Peter was a "Very Reverend". The correct death record actually lists that title in his death record versus the 1941 record which is for a Peter who is a carpenter. The obituary for Peter tells that he was a highly revered Priest who "In 1938, father Corcoran played an important role in restoring Cistercian life to historic Mellifont, and the monks of the new refounded New Mellifont, situate in his parish, always considered him as one of the founders of the Abbey. " His living sister and the nieces & nephews residing in Ireland are listed in his obit. * Melanie's great uncle Rt. Rev. Msgr. [[McKenna-2457|John Patrick McKenna]] celebrated his first Mass at St. Mary's Church in Iona on 26 Jun 1910. On January 30, 1924, Msgr. McKenna was shot in the chest and stomach while leaving the rectory. He was in critical condition for several days and hospitalized for five weeks before recovering fully. An escapee from the Kansas penitentiary was identified as the assailant. He was the first diocesan director of the Legion of Decency. On the Golden Anniversary of his ordination, he was named prothonatory apostolic ad justar participantium, carrying the right to wear pontifical vestments in the celebration of the Mass. * Melanie knew very little about her great-grandmother's brother [[Siegel-896|Isidor Siegel (abt.1884-1944)]]. We found what happened in his life and that he died in 1944 and is buried in New York. Isidor was married to [[Rohrlich-4|Clara Rohrlich (abt.1889-)]] and they had two children: [[Siegel-902|Harry Siegel (abt.1913-)]] who married Rose Liepshutz in 1936, and [[Siegel-903|Bertha Siegel (abt.1915-)]]. If Harry and Clara had children and/or if Rose married and had children, then maybe Melanie has some 2C1Rs and 3rd cousins that she never knew about and can share information with. * Isidor Siegal also had a very interesting story: "Swindlers Got Fortune By Frauds Say Police; Get-Rich-Quick Gang Caught Here - Had Nice Scheme" - Chicago, Jan 8, 1917. Isidor, his brother-in-law Abraham Rohrlich, and Morris Moskowitz were "charged with having obtained thousands of dollars in several cities by means of a fake merchant scheme" and they were under arrest. "The police say they are hot on the trail of other members of the gang. According to the plan said to have been worked here, the gang would open up a merchandise store and a checking account. After obtaining goods, first with good checks and later with bad, they are accused of having shipped them to Brooklyn, closed up their store over night and disappearing. They are said to have pyramided their checking accounts with as many worthless checks as they could negotiate. Local police say that the gang worked in New York, St Louis, Cincinnati, Newport, Ky., Cleveland, Detroit, Mount Clemons, Mich., Gary, Ind., and East St. Louis." The three men "were found at a hotel here (in Chicago) under assumed names, on information supplied by the New York Police." Both Isidor and Abraham appear with their families in the 1920 census, so if they served time, it would have been no more than 3 years. More likely, since a gang was involved and they were the ones first caught, they may have been released and not charged in exchange for information about the other gang members. * [[Rooney-1380|Owen Eugene Rooney (1899-1975)]] is just 1 of at least 5 priests in his family according to this list - details on parents also given http://www.islandregister.com/1935priests.html *Two of Melanie’s ancestors on PEI were reputed to be over 100 in newspaper articles, but the facts didn’t bear it out. [[Clarkin-133|Bernard Clarkin (1775-1879)]] was shown to have been born later than 1775 by his entry in the 1841 census as between 45 and 60, hence born between 1781 and 1796 - making him between 83 and 98 years old at his death (still a fair age), and [[Dougherty-1867|Francis Dougherty (1802-abt.1892)]] was born between 1796 (oldest possible age from the 1841 census and as late as 1802 (from 1881 census), putting his age at death between 90 and 96. He too was a good age when he died. * [[Duff-4017|Bernard Duff (abt.1814-1903)]] appeared a few times in the newspapers in Ireland. On two separate occasions man named Henry Murray was taken to court accused of assaulting Bernard, but on each occasion he was acquitted. Bernard was also an early member of The National League, a political organisation which campaigned for Home Rule. In 1858, he had an advert in the paper selling 30 cocks of hay. A hay cock is the way hay was stored before bales were invented. * [[Mooney-3204|Rose (Mooney/Rooney) Sullivan]], daughter of Philip and Mary (Doherty) Rooney, had a dozen children of which three became missionary priests.Donahoe, James. ''Prince Edward Island priests who have labored or are laboring in the sacred ministry, outside the diocese of Charlottetown'' (St. Paul, MN: Webb Publishing Company, 1912), pp. 316, 336, 360. * https://southstreetseaportmuseum.org/about/ Not exactly a find, but maybe this museum would have info on Anton Gailunas.

[[Category: Silva-1055]] {{Image|file=M_Silva_WikiTree_Space-112.png|align=c|size=600}} == Connect-a-Thon == Our goal for the Connect-a-Thon is to decrease the number of profiles that are not [[Special:Connection|connected]] to our big tree by spending 72 hours adding new (and sourced!) profiles of family members. If you have any questions not covered in the [[Help:Connect-a-Thon|Help Page]] then ask on {{G2G}}. ---- === Adding Profiles === * For basic help on adding a person check out the [[Help:Creating_a_New_Person|Creating a New Person]] help page. * If you are adding profiles from your GEDCOM check out the [https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Space:2018_GEDCOMpare_Process&public=1 Walk Through] on the current process. * Check out the [[Help:How_to_Edit_a_Profile|How-To]] page for ideas on editing profiles. === Finding Sources === :This is to help you find records on FamilySearch and copy the citation over to your WikiTree profile. :''Note: If you can't see one of the pictures good enough you can click on it and open it in a new window or tab to see it larger.'' :'''Look''' at the profile you want to research. You can find the Research button in two places: :The first is on the upper right in the second menu. In this example it was Christopher Stone and his WikiID is Stone-564. Click on that then click on 'Research' near the bottom of that menu. The second place is on the right of the page, down past the comment box. {{Image|file=M_Silva_WikiTree_Space-19.png|align=c|size=625}} :'''Log in''' to RootsSearch :The first time you use RootsSearch you will need to pick an email and password. The easiest way to remember it is to use the same email you use for WikiTree. After that you will login on this screen each time you use the RootsSearch button. {{Image|file=M_Silva_WikiTree_Space-24.png|align=c|size=625}}
:'''Add''' your genealogy sites to the RootsSearch buttons :If you are already using Ancestry.com, MyHeritage, FindMyPast or other paid sites, you can add them to your research choices in RootsSearch. {{Image|file=M_Silva_WikiTree_Space-53.png|align=c|size=500}}
:'''Look''' for records on FamilySearch You can look on those other sites if you are already a member. I recommend looking on FamilySearch first as it is a free site so everyone can look at the records you find. FamilySearch sometimes has a little login glitch. If you click on it and it asks what you are looking for - go back to the RootsSearch page and click FamilySearch again. The second time it will open the search page. {{Image|file=M_Silva_WikiTree_Space-54.png|align=c|size=625}}
:RootsSearch automatically fills in the information :As you can see RootsSearch filled in all of the information you already have to make searching easier. If you don't have luck finding records, try shortening "York, Yorkshire, England" to just "England." If it is a United States of America location, try entering only the state in the birth and death place (i.e. Kentucky). {{Image|file=M_Silva_WikiTree_Space-55.png|align=c|size=600}}
:'''Find''' a record that looks right :Find an entry that looks right for your ancestor. In this example I'm using the record of a Mary Stone that has Christopher Stone as a father. Using your mouse, drag your cursor over the text (I put a blue box around it). Right click and select 'copy.' {{Image|file=M_Silva_WikiTree_Space-56.png|align=c|size=550}}
:'''Paste''' into your WikiTree profile :Now go to your profile that is open on Edit Mode. Scroll down until you see the Sources section. Type an asterisk * (it marks the start of each source). Right click with your mouse and select 'paste.' You can use the same method in the first help section to hide the link. Notice I put 'FamilySearch' and the brackets to hide the url. {{Image|file=M_Silva_WikiTree_Space-58.png|align=c|size=500}}
:Type 'Added birth record' in ''''Explain''' your changes' section :Now type in the reason you made changes to the profile and then click 'Save.' Now instead of others viewing the profile just seeing a link - they can tell it is a birth record, where you found it, and what information it contains. :'''Congratulations''' :Go ahead and practice finding sources for the profiles you have already created. And congratulations for learning how to use a full source citation! ---- === Pre-1700 Sources === * The definition of a source is 'where something came from.' The difference in a genealogy site, such as WikiTree, is that the quality of the source becomes more important the further you go back in history. Pre-1700 profiles should not have FindAGrave, Ancestry (or other site) family trees, Family History etc as a Primary Source. You can put them in a 'See Also' section so you can refer to them as a tool while researching. These do '''not''' count as a source on a pre-1700 profile for any of the Thons. * If you are looking for Reliable Sources for Pre-1700 Profiles check out the ever-expanding [[:Category:Reliable_Sources_for_Pre-1700_Profiles|WikiTree Category]]. There may be sources for your location of interest that you didn't know was there. ---- === Hiding a Source Link === :Copy the URL Web address from the search bar. Then paste your link into the Sources section *https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QVM5-9LZY :Leave one empty space after the link and type in what it is (or paste in): *https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QVM5-9LZY {{Blue|Frederick Andrew "Fred" Bevensee, Iowa State Census, 1905}} :Now add the brackets: *[https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QVM5-9LZY Frederick Andrew "Fred" Bevensee, Iowa State Census, 1905] :This will result in a source that looks like this: * [https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QVM5-9LZY Frederick Andrew "Fred" Bevensee, Iowa State Census, 1905] :Click Preview and then if satisfied click Save ---- === Inserting a Source into your Biography === :''Note: See the [[#Helpful Links|Helpful Links]] section below for how to quickly add sources'' :Add a census in the Biography section. :To easily insert the open/close tag at the end of the text for the source click the capital C above in the edit box. See below example: {{Image|file=D_Selman_s_Photos-20.png |caption=Edit Box }} ::Fred Bevensee lived in Iowa in 1905.insert reference here :Type your sentence in the Biography section. Enter your URL between the Tags, add a space then enter the name of the source. See: Example below, This will result in a source that looks like this in Edit mode: ::Fred Bevensee lived in Iowa in 1905.https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QVM5-9LZY Iowa State Census, 1905 :It will look like this in Preview or Public mode: ::Fred Bevensee lived in Iowa in 1905.https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QVM5-9LZY Iowa State Census, 1905 ::'''Sources''' : You can then hide the link if you desire as described above ::Fred Bevensee lived in Iowa in 1905.[https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QVM5-9LZY Iowa State Census, 1905] ::'''Sources''' ::1.↑ [https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QVM5-9LZY Iowa State Census, 1905] ---- === Find Unconnected Profiles on Your Watchlist === : You may want to start with Unconnected ancestors on your own Watchlist. Where is that darn list, by the way?

What was the maiden name of [[McClellan-277|William McClellan (abt.1747-bef.1838)]]'s wife? Where and when did they marry? There is more information on my Ancestry tree https://www.ancestry.ca/family-tree/person/tree/34965071/person/28113829880/facts If they married in the American colonies it could have been in the Cherry Valley, NY area prior to 1770, or possibly in Massachusetts or Maine, there are several McClellan families that emigrated to the colonies from Ulster in the early to mid-1700s. as William bought land in 1773, it is possible that he had family in the colonies who supported him. William, Jane and their children were survivors of the Cherry Valley Massacre November 10, 1778 at Cherry Valley, New York # Santa's Elf Response: Added research notes. # Santa's Elf Response: ==== Ireland 1800s ==== 2. Where and when in Ireland was [[Shaughnessy-587|Michael Shaughnessy]] born? # Santa's Elf Response: # Santa's Elf Response: ==== England 1500s ==== 3.

Who was the husband of [[Scott-46238|Rebecca (Scott) Sproule (abt.1795-)]]? # Santa's Elf Response: Added some details to profile. [[Scott-36887|Rebecca Scott]] are definitely not the same person so James Sproule is not Scott-46238's husband. Posted comment about age of one of children [[Sproule-214|William Sproule]] which could change age of Rebecca. # Santa's Elf Response: # Santa's Elf Response: ==== Whose the Daddy in Scotland==== 5. Which one of the 3 Burns brothers was the father of [[Burns-12360|Alexander Burns (1844-1912)]]? He was the illegitimate son of [[Crombie-363|Mary Swanston Crombie (1812-)]], she filed paternity suits against 2 of the brothers John and James, but named the child after the 3rd brother Alexander.

To finish the family history of the first five generations, starting with me, I'm working on. Dad's side is sourced. Mom's side is a little more of a challenge. Those elusive Plantation of Maine records is my stumbling block. Here is my mother's profile to start [[Pease-890|Shirley Beatrice (Pease) Stearns (1935-2001)]] # Santa's Elf Response: '''Granted''' - I've added some sources to the actual profiles. You have quite a history already at Family Search on your mother's side with linked sources for a lot more than 5 generations. I've been able to link more of those old Maine vital records to add more support for what is already there and cleared up a few conflicts and issues and made a few additional links. I put a link in the comments on your mother's profile. You have many hours of joyful discovery and adding to wikitree ahead of you with the information now available to you. ~~ [[Brandt-1372|Mary Brandt Jensen]] # Santa's Elf Response: If You have a library membership you could access ancestry.com There are numerous sources, history and 7 generations of family trees available. i.e. https://www.ancestrylibrary.com/family-tree/person/tree/86776289/person/48543204918/facts. C'est Bon # Santa's Elf Response: ==== What happened after Prison Release ==== 7. To find out what happened to my paternal grandfather, [[Benningfield-118|William Robert Benningfield]], after he was released from San Quentin in 1949. This has been a real brick wall for me. # Santa's Elf Response: # Santa's Elf Response: ==== Whose the Momma England 1800s==== 8. To find the mother of my maternal great-great grandfather, [[Bold-245|Robert Bold]]. # Santa's Elf Response: Wish granted # Santa's Elf Response: ==== Germany to Missouri USA 1800s ==== 9. I have a brick wall with my 2x great grandmother. [[Weber-5077|Eva (Weber) Walter (abt.1834-1905)]]. Would love to find her birth record and parents # Santa's Elf Response: Eva Weber in the Germany, Select Births and Baptisms, 1558-1898 No record imageGermany, Select Births and Baptisms, 1558-1898 DetailSource Name: Eva Weber Gender: Female Baptism Age: 0 Death Age: 0 Birth Date: 12.

My gggrandfather's origins! I'm almost 60 and I want to know where [[Howe-8231|Charles W Howe (abt.1862-bef.1920)]] comes from. # Santa's Elf Response: There seems to be some confusion between 2 men with the same name. Compare Howe-8443 & Howe-8231 # Santa's Elf Response: # Santa's Elf Response: ==== Germany to Illinois 1800s ==== 11. My husband's GGGrandfather [[Schmidt-8963|Rudolph Wilhelm Schmidt (abt.1839-abt.1905)]] emigrated from Germany and lived in the area around Edwardsville, Illinois the remainder of his life. We have a (cut out and pasted) copy of an obituary in a scrapbook which we think is from either the Edwardsville or St. Louis paper but it is undated and we've never been able to find the obit online or establish a date of death (we think it's about 1905). And although the obit says he was to be buried in Woodlawn cemetery, we've not been able to find a gravesite (I "invented" a FindaGrave with what little I know). the pandemic has prevented us from traveling to that area to try and research further. Anything more we can learn about him will be much appreciated. # Santa's Elf Response: Some cite his wife's maiden Kuk surname americanized as Cook, so there may be some census records for her parents under that spelling. Some say his mother was Elizabeth Anna Catherine Hunsche(n), b: 1798. One sourced example with her parents is ... https://www.ancestry.com/family-tree/person/tree/150975229/person/412168304463/facts # Santa's Elf Response: # Santa's Elf Response: ==== Wales Cousins 1800s ==== 12. My great-great grandmother [[John-2584|Margaret (John) Preece (abt.1863-1906)]] is mentioned as being a cousin of [[Jeffreys-668|William Edward Jeffreys (1881-)]] and [[Evans-34840|David Evans (abt.1864-1931)]], but I have never been able to find the common ancestors. I'd really like to find out how they are connected! I've written up some notes on exactly what I already know and what I would like to find out. They're fairly long so I will link to them - https://familytree.thomaspreece.net/notes/margaret-john/ (but anyone feel free to copy them into WikiTree if that would be more appropriate). # Santa's Elf Response: # Santa's Elf Response: ==== Shropshire England 1800s==== 13. Having worked on my tree since 1973, my most stubborn wall has been a paternal great grandfather. Two years ago I discovered his probable name from a small 1864 newspaper clipping, where my great grandmother had summonsed him for child maintenance! I thought the wall was down. Apparently there's no trace of him after that date. The name stated was [[Bulwer-33|Thomas Bulwer (abt.1846-)]] age 16. The only male Bulwer of the right age I have found was an Edwin BULWER, and then a light went on, my grandfathers name at Birth was Meredith ROGERS, but at some point in the next 3 years, his name became [[Rogers-22112|Edwin Meredith (Rogers) Davies (1863-1934)]]. Could it be that the person known as 'Tom' was actually Edwin and it was assumed his name was Thomas? According to the clipping the proceeding was not completed as the witness was unwell and unable to attend. I cannot locate any further information on Thomas/Edwin or further court information. The estate where they both worked was "near Baschurch", which I believe is in Shropshire. My gt-grandmothers home was in North wales, next door to Shropshire and the clipping is from the Wrexham Leader. # Santa's Elf Response: Added sources on each profile including transcript of Newspaper [[Buckle-52|Buckle-52]] 20:25, 23 December 2021 (UTC) # Santa's Elf Response: # Santa's Elf Response: ==== 1776 Harford Co Maryland USA Tax List ==== 14. All I want for Christmas is...the 1776 census (tax list) of Eden Hundred, Harford County, Maryland. Some counties, including Harford, noted each member of every household by name and age - yes, both free and enslaved, male and female, young and old. Though there are several mentions of data from Eden Hundred in a published history of the area, and in old posts/articles on genealogy sites, it isn't included in any compilation or database I can find. The published history did include a footnote that cited an 18-folio collection of Harford data held by the Maryland State Archives. Unfortunately, I live on the other side of the country, so I need to hitch a ride to Maryland on Santa's sleigh. If he could just drop me off in Annapolis and provide me with the keys to the Archives, I believe I'd be able to identify my 3rd g-grandmother [[Scarff-41|Sarah (Scarff) Strong (aft.1766-aft.1843)]]'s parents, and maybe a sibling or two if I'm lucky. # Santa's Elf Response: You can read that online [https://www.familysearch.org/library/books/records/item/108750-genealogy-a-journal-of-american-ancestry-v-6-1916-no-12?viewer=1&offset=0#page=3&viewer=picture&o=&n=0&q= here]. ([[Silva-1055]]) # Santa's Elf Response: No Scarffs or Strongs listed in the source above, I am looking for Quaker records for the area. I have Quaker roots in Maryland and southern Pennsylvania. [[Cox-27529|Cox-27529]] 21:22, 23 December 2021 (UTC) # Santa's Elf Response: Left notes on profile, parents are not Nicholas Scarff of Ohio, or Henry Scarff (Scarff-100) and Patty Hardisty (Hardisty-247) # Santa's Elf Response: She is often cited as the daughter of James C.

Too hard for me to read, but you are more motivated :) # Santa's Elf Response: # Santa's Elf Response: ==== Where did G-Grandpa go New York USA 1892 ==== 15. To find out where the heck great-grandpa [[Reynolds-4530|Philip Henry Reynolds (abt.1853-)]] ran off to when he walked out on his wife & five children in 1892. # Santa's Elf Response: '''Wish In Progress''' - sent email to Rochester city historian to inquire about the Police Court records. I found a few newspaper clippings which include an entry for Philip where he was asked to leave town. I'm hoping the court minutes might shed light on where he may have gone. Also added research notes on Philip Reynolds that I ruled out. [[Doherty-2064]] # Santa's Elf Response: ==== Ballingarry Ireland 1800s ==== 16. I would be a wonderful Christmas and/or New Year gift for me to find out what became of [[Moylan-260|Bridget (Moylan) Sweeney (abt.1819-aft.1868)]], born about 1819 in Ballingarry, after her husband, Coast Guard [[Sweeney-3757|Daniel Hugh Sweeney (abt.1820-1868)]] was drowned in 1868 outside of Dunany Harbour on the East Coast of the North of Ireland. I would also like to know what became of their son, [[Sweeney-3760|Daniel Sweeney (1850-)]], born 15.02.1958 in Beer, Devon, England, after this tragedy. The last I know of him was that in 1869 he was discharged from the Royal Navy in which he had enlisted as a Boy 2nd Class Sailor. Clare Pierson # Santa's Elf Response: # Santa's Elf Response: ==== Switzerland to Iowa 1800s ==== 17. I hope Santa tells me the parents names of my third great grandmother [[Meyer-15938|Mary Meyer (1837-1879)]]. More info is in the G2G post [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/1345139/wikitree-livecast-secret-santa-challenge-2021-dec-2021-2022 Santa Challenge G2G] # Santa's Elf Response: # Santa's Elf Response: ==== Best Genealogy Program ==== 18. What is the best program to have for storing your genealogy tree? This would include the basic documents- birth, marriage and death. Jane Petz # Santa's Elf Response: So many possible answers to this. I use Gramps, It's free. Every few months I download a GEDCOM of my WikiTree work and upload it to Gramps. https://gramps-project.org/blog/ # Santa's Elf Response: # Santa's Elf Response: ==== Wayne Kentucky 1800s ==== 19. Proof of [[Hardwick-1150|Mary Hardwick (1813-1881)]] (findagrave #40041912)'s parents # Santa's Elf Response: '''Wish Granted''' I have updated her profile, I utilized Ancestry and Family Search. Still need to locate her in 1860-1870 and find parents. # Santa's Elf Response: ==== Weddington DNA data wanted - VA/KY/NC ==== 20. I would like to find more Weddington DNA data to help in figuring out the [[Space:Weddington_Name_Study|Weddington Name Study]]. Whether from the North Carolina family, or from the Virginia / Kentucky families. I've taken a DNA test. I'm very curious as to what the Paternal Haplogroups turn out to be from other Weddingtons. It will help to start confirming or disproving relationships. # Santa's Elf Response: I just scanned your profile and I see an auDNA test, have you thought about getting a YDNA test? I see a Weddington who is tied to the Smith Surname here in the DNA Group Project. [[Gaulden-7|Mags Gaulden]] Answered his G2G post. Response from Eric: I did a 23andMe DNA test, and they are reporting back that my Paternal Haplogroup is E-M183. Would a Y-DNA test be better or provide me more information? # Santa's Elf Response: # Santa's Elf Response: ==== Sweden to Massachussetts and/or Connecticut ==== 21. I wish I could learn any additional details from after their emigration, about any of my great grandfather's brothers who went to America. [[Ekberg-66|Nils Gustaf Henrik Ekberg (1887-aft.1918)]] or [[Ekberg-64|Johan Ernfrid Ekberg (1879-aft.1918)]] # Santa's Elf Response: Karl Fredrik Ekberg--59, Sr. at https://www.ancestry.com/family-tree/person/tree/618358/person/6927678168/facts Karl Fredrik Ekberg-60, Jr. m: Emelia=Amelia Jensen (1878-1962) with 4 children ... :- John Aloot Ekberg, b: 1903 :- Albin William Ekberg, b: 1912 :- Elmer Carl Ekberg, b: 1917 :- Harry Victor Ekberg, b: 1910; m: Thelma E. Brown (1911-1981) # Santa's Elf Response: # Santa's Elf Response: ==== More Info needed on Irish Ancestors ==== 22. I wish I knew enough about my husband's (Connolly-680) Irish born ancestors to extend his tree further as my memorial for him - he was thrilled with every discovery I made before he died 6 months ago and I hope to feel up to getting back to genealogy soon. The farthest back ancestors I have found were immigrants to the United States and I know nothing about them before they arrived. These are [[Connolly-1054|Andrew Connolly (1812-1884)]], [[Keavaney-1|Delia A (Keavaney) Connolly (abt.1880-1961)]], [[Lynch-3648|Peter Lynch (1835-1885)]], and [[Quigley-580|Mary (Quigley) Lynch (1836-1901)]]. Every time I tried to work on them, it felt like the entire country of Ireland was my brickwall. # Santa's Elf Response: Added some information for Delia Keavaney # Santa's Elf Response: ==== Mayflower Connection Sources Needed ==== 23. My Mayflower Society acceptance would be nice. If anyone can find the document showing a connection to [[Collins-20366|Mary Collins (1785-1833)]]. [[Pease-2935|Elijah Pease (1778-1823)]], and [[Pease-2934|Isaiah Pease (abt.1818-abt.1867)]], I would appreciate it. It is my Mayflower line missing document. I have to support, inferred connection.

My wish would be that someone could find accurated birth info on [[Drake-5836|Amy Emma (Drake) Card (1848-1936)]]. All i have are info from my grandmother but no records of who her parents actually are. # Santa's Elf Response: I added an obit reference and FaG link for Amy Emma Drake-5836 which identifies her birth location as Logansport, Cass County, Indiana, USA. Also found a state census for her grandmother Miranda Rhoden-302 showing her 6 years younger but with some Drakes. She is without husband in 1860. Perhaps the name "Joseph Golden Drake" was passed down in the New Jersey family ? See Drake-10325 & https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/52636922/joseph-golden-drake There was a Simon Drake who served in the Civil War ... https://www.ancestry.com/family-tree/person/tree/80190654/person/38530798185/facts For Abraham Drake-7248 you may want to check the sources on this webape to see if you can figure out if he is the one who died in Civil War ... https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/598499/abraham-drake OR is he the one who survived the war ? And is mentioned in the very last source on this page ... https://www.ancestry.com/discoveryui-content/view/1665582:60525?ssrc=pt&tid=116383511&pid=252047829896 # Santa's Elf Response: ==== Bohemia, Nebraska & Minnesota Wish ==== 25. To find my mother in law's relatives. Most of her relatives are from Bohemia, Nebraska and Minnesota. Her parents are [[Havlik-239|John Havlik (1908-1972)]] & [[Dumbeck-28|Ethel (Dumbeck) Havlik (1917-1981)]] # Santa's Elf Response: I put sources on the Dumbeck-30 immigrant from Germany along with his parents' names. # Santa's Elf Response: I added more sources to [[Havlik-240|John J Havlik (1868-1961)]]. According to his death certificate, his parents were John Havlik and Mary. Also added sources for John's wife Barbara; her parents are named on her death certificate # Santa's Elf Response: I added parents and maternal grandparents for Ethel, taking that line back to Germany. (including possible baptisms in Germany/Prussia for both grandparents.) # Santa's Elf Response: ==== Immigration from Austria 1903 ==== 26. I would like to find more information about my mom's grandmother, [[Kirsch-795|Josephine (Kirsch) Weber (1890-1972)]] and great grandmother, [[Krisch-42|Rosalia Krisch (1867-)]]. I have found the ship manifest from when they immigrated in 1903 https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:33S7-916T-94CS?i=756. It lists Rosalia as a widow so I don't know if the Krisch is her LNAB or her married name. I have posted a story that has been passed down on one branch of the family on Rosalia's profile. I have tried looking for the niece that is listed on the document with no luck. My mom is writing a family book and I would to be able to give her the gift of information about these ladies and even a better gift would be if Josephine's father is found. # Santa's Elf Response: '''“Wish Granted”''' LNAB and husband's name (possible father of Josephine?) of Rosalia Krisch is revealed on her death certificate. Index of which is available on Ancestry, but is also copied as a document into the photo section of her profile for guaranteed access to the information. Death certificate is signed by daughter, Josephine Weber. Josephine & Rosalia are buried in the same section/family plot area of St John Cemetery in Queens, NYC. FindAGrave photo requests put in for both, added entry for mother. MORE RESEARCH NEEDED! Rosalia's parent's names are provided, but more research is needed to discover their origin in Prussia. # Santa's Elf Response: # Santa's Elf Response: ==== Yorkshire England unwed mother ==== 27. I would love to find out more about [[Raper-299|Lois Raper (1823-1893)]]'s father or the unknown father of her children. *Lois AKA Louisa was born in 1823 in Doncaster, Yorkshire, England and died in Leeds in 1893. Her father is listed as [[Raper-300|William Raper (1786-bef.1833)]] who was possibly a lieutenant with the West Middlesex Militia. I would love to know more about this military life/his wife/if any records exist for this. *Lois had three children as a single parent - I know it's basically impossible but it would be amazing if any records existed for guesses who the father of her children would be. The Y-DNA is I-P109 # Santa's Elf Response: Added 1851 England Census for Louisa & Mary - found mother Louisa listed as servant in another household. May want to check that household name to see if you get any DNA matches to the last name? Located Louisa and Mary on the BMD index. Requested birth records for both (not sure if it will list father). # Santa's Elf Response: Added death record and findagrave for mother sarah langstaff though birth year is out by 3 yrs. Findagrave lists same address as daughter was living at in 1861. ==== Sweden unnamed mother sought ==== 28. I wish I would be able to use DNA-matches to figure out who the parents of my great great grandmother [[Lundeqvist-2|Maria Sofia (Lundeqvist) Lundholm (1849-1882)]] was. She was born in Stockholm by an unnamed mother in 1849. Her origins is my closest brick wall. At that time it was not unusual for pregnant mothers in other parts of Sweden to go to Stockholm to give birth anonymously. # Santa's Elf Response: The best DNA repository I've independently researched to determine connections for Europe and has been recently updated is My Heritage. # Santa's Elf Response: ==== German to Louisiana Ancestors Wanted ==== 29. As I sit here in California, supporting my almost (tomorrow) 98 year old mother who has entered home hospice and my dad who has severe dementia, my wish is to break down the brick walls on either side: *My mom's emigrating (?) German catholic (?) ancestress, [[Grosch-19|Laura-Henrietta Grosch (abt.1845-)]] who settled in / near New Orleans and may or may not have married the father of her child (b New Orleans). Where was she before and after the birth of this child? # Santa's Elf Response: I put a note on your Mom's profile with some suggestions on how I found my German Catholic ancestors in a different church in New Orleans. I think based on my past experience that your ancestress is more likely to be found in the records of the St. Mary's, the German Catholic church in the Irish Channel parishes. # Santa's Elf Response: # Santa's Elf Response: ==== German Ancestors Wanted ==== 30. My dad's emigrating ancestor, [[Schmidt-1855|Leonhard Schmidt (abt.1818-1872)]] -- where in "Baden" did he come from and who were his parents or siblings? *What I've researched already is detailed on each of their profiles. # Santa's Elf Response: # Santa's Elf Response: ==== Found in Wales in 1901 ==== 31. I would like to know when my 2nd grt grandaunt [[Jones-106325|Elizabeth Jones (1833-)]](nee Jones) died. She was living in Tredegar Monmouthshire wales in 1901 census and mentioned in obituary of her Brother my ancestor John Jones who died 2nd June 1903. Both her and her husband James Jones cannot be found in 1911 so i guess they died between 1903 and 1911. # Santa's Elf Response: # Santa's Elf Response: ==== Need parents in 1800s Scotland ==== 32. My wish would be to find the parents of [[Young-47125|Margaret (Young) Paterson (abt.1793-1879)]], my 3rd great-grandmother. I have located her marriage to John Paterson and found her living in Morayshire in the Scottish census from 1841-1861, which list her place of birth as Kessock, Ross-shire. I have also found her death in 1879 in Nairnshire, but have not yet been able to find her baptism and her parents. Thanks for any elf magic! # Santa's Elf Response: # Santa's Elf Response: ==== Liverpool, England to Australia, Ireland? ==== 33. I would like help in furthering my namesake Kellett family line. I have been stuck with a brick wall for my second great grandfather [[Kellett-226|Thomas Kellett (abt.1822-1869)]]. I know that he left Liverpool, England in 1853 and travelled to Ballarat, Australia in 1853 then travelled to Dunedin, New Zealand in 1862 and started a family there. He was supposed to speak with a Northern Irish accent according to his wife's testimony in a court case in 1876 (after his death). # Santa's Elf Response: # Santa's Elf Response: ==== First Husband Massachusetts ==== 34. Mine is a super long shot. I would love to find out the name of my great-great grandmother's first husband, and when and where they were married. It took 26 years for me to finally find her parents (and Melanie McComb's analysis and suggestions helped so much with that). *Emma was born in Manchester, Guysborough, Nova Scotia, Canada in 1863. By 1888, she was in Middleboro, Plymouth, Massachusetts, United States, and married to her second husband. Who was the first husband (the elusive Mr. Reagan), when and where were they married, and what became of him? *The name of her first husband is the last mystery remaining when it comes to [[Murphy-12936|Emma Anna (Murphy) Shaw (abt.1863-1945)]] herself. # Santa's Elf Response: # Santa's Elf Response: ==== 1700s Germany Mother ==== 35.

Is so mysterious, but love to know more about this family. # Santa's Elf Response: I had mistakenly replied on the signup page so am tranferring my info here now. Hope I am doing it right now. Internet family trees are saying her name was Maria Byers who married Philip Calahan. I wasn't able to find a solid source for that, but thought you might want to try searchng for those names to see if anything might turn up. I added an 1860 census for their son Charles Callahan-2158 with his wife. I also added an 1850 census for you to look at because it has a mining occupation ... which is different than the 1850 census you have, so you can keep whichever one you think is suitable. # Santa's Elf Response: # Santa's Elf Response: ==== 1800s Pennsylvania ==== 36.

I would like for Santa's Elves to help me locate a maiden name and parents for my mtDNA Ancestress, [[Unknown-373087|Barbara Bowman]]. Barbara was born before 1759- location unknown and lived her adult life in Virginia with her last known residence in Shenandoah County, Virginia in 1822. I have recorded what I know about her life on her WikiTree profile and will be glad to send any document to the Elf(Elves) who would like to work on her case. # Santa's Elf Response: quote> locate a maiden name and parents for my mtDNA Ancestress, [[Unknown-373087|Barbara Bowman]]. This is just a possible lead ... see if there are any mtdna matches with Barbara Keller, b: 1754 Bucks, PA; d: Feb 1850 Shenandoah Co, VA; daughter of Hans George Keller (1711–1782) & Barbara Anne Hottel (1713–1798). I think there is a wikitree profile for her at https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Keller-2616 No mother shows on that profile, but if you look at the father's profile, the Hottel wife is there. * Thank you for the possible mother. Barbara is recorded as KELLER on her father's will and Barbara Bowman was married by 1880, but perhaps George wrote his wrote prior to his marriage. I will look for the probate as well as deeds and I will definitely review my mtDNA for Hilderbrant. Again, Thanks so much for this great possibility.

For over 50 years now (I started doing genealogy when I was 17, back in 1970) I've been trying to find the parents of my adoptive dad's great-grandfather, [[Munn-1609|Neill Munn (1792-1842)]], born 1792 in Fayettevlle, Cumberland, North Carolina and died 20 NOV 1842 in La Grange, Fayette, Republic of Texas. Unfortunately, my adoptive dad died before I was able to give him a DNA test, and he had no living siblings or other close relatives, but a distant cousin of his, also a Neill Munn descendant, tested and learned that our branch of the family has a connection to [[Munn-984|Alexander McAlpine Munn (1725-1776)]], something I have always suspected. This Alexander had a son named Neil, but from all indications he was a separate person from my Neill Munn. Other researchers have assigned different parents to my Neill Munn, but with no documentation and I've been unable to find any. Decades ago, a Munn genealogist claimed that Neill's parents were an Alexander Munn and his wife Flora, but I have been unable to verify this or even find any likely candidates, although there were several Alexander Munns around at the right place and time (none with a wife named Flora, though, as far as I know). This seems to be one of those cases in which we're so close to finding the answer, and yet so far away. I think that DNA might provide the answer. It also doesn't help that all the Munn families in the same vicinity followed the Scottish naming tradition and gave their children the same first names. Thanks for any help anyone can provide! # Santa's Elf Response: # Santa's Elf Response: ==== 1800s Missouri ==== 39.

They appear together in the 1880 census in Daviess County, Missouri. They had two kids, Jesse, born 1884 & Charley, born 1881(estimated from census). I found the birth record for Jesse, my grandfather but not Charley. My great grandma Jennie married her third husband, Charles Ball on 13 Mar 1889 in Marionville, Lawrence Co. Missouri. We have no idea what happened to James. Did they divorce or did he die? I have been unable to find any proof of when or where he died. This has been a mystery I've been trying to solve since 1994.

I'd love some help locating my ancestor [[Nelson-25468|Frank Nelson (1855-1907)]] in Sweden before he came to the United States. His obituary says he was born in Stockholm on 3 Jun 1855. Around 1870, he went to work in Germany for about three years, then made a brief trip back home to Sweden, then came to America. He was in Logansport, Indiana, living with his cousin [[Nelson-26583|Gustave/August Nelson (abt.1843-1880)]] for a few years. Gustave died in 1880, and soon after Frank settled in Defiance, Ohio, where he married and had children.

They had 6 children all born in Indiana, but the last one. One child in Delaware Co Indiana and two born Alexandria, Madison Co Indiana. I want to debunk the information on Ancestry that shows her parents and the age on the census do not add up to the birth date above. If the idea of her being born in Ohio is correct in the 1880 census, there is an Alice Tracy living in Alexandria, Madison Co Indiana working as a hired girl the right age. Is this her?

Her mother may have been Annunziata D'omizio or Lenza Domenica. Angelina may have been from the Abruzzo region of Italy OR from the north. Her brother was born in San Salvo in Abruzzo. Her mother may have been from Bergamo Italy in the Lombardy region. I cannot find her birthplace or a definitive name for her mother. I would appreciate any help you can offer. # Santa's Elf Response: I added the sources from FamilySearch and some Research notes. As the two older siblings have Annunziata Domizio as mother, I would suppose it's Angelina's mother as well (unless you would find an earlier marriage for their father). Try to get Angelina's original marriage record, there her parents and hopefully also her birth location should be mentioned. Records from italy are usually only available online up to 1900, so you would need to write to the comune or to the church to get records from there. I found a cousin Michele Domizio who migrated together with Angelina. I hope this helps.
