[add comment] [edit] Error importing Scott Family.ged [10 October 2007]We had an error while attempting to import your GEDCOM. This is most likely our fault. We will review the error and should have your pages ready tomorrow (or Monday if tomorrow falls on a weekend). There is no need to re-import your GEDCOM file. For questions or problems, leave a message for Dallan or send an email to dallan@WeRelate.org.
I apologize for the delay in getting this fixed. Hopefully I'll be able to fix it by tonight or tomorrow morning. :) -Nathan 11:13, 9 October 2007 (EDT)

There may be additional pages. --Beth 07:51, 20 October 2008 (EDT)WeRelate Administrator Thanks, Beth.

[add comment] [edit] Avaline/John Goodwin [11 May 2010]Hello GayelKnott, I have been working on tracing my Goodwin line for a few months now, and stumbled upon this site. I do have a few questions, are you related to these people in the Title? Am I free to use this information and post it to other trees on other sites? (Ancestry.com) Also, if you are related, have you discovered any photographs of John/Avaline Goodwin? Thank you for your time, Brian--Mudshovelr 02:51, 10 May 2010 (EDT)
I'm related to Everline's Father and so are you, doesn't that make us related? Somehow?...lol My dead end was John C Goodwin and his wife Everline. The records and census' get worse the farther back you get, obviously. And I am in California, so it's not easy to just drive over to look at film, trust me if it was closer I'd be there everyday. When I have some time this weekend, and I figure it out, I'll try to add what I know. There is a person related to a son of John and Everline that I shared this site with, she will be on here and making contributions soon, I predict. Once again, sorry for asking. Are there any pictures of these Goodwins? Thank you for sharing what you know! It's been a great help! Brian--Mudshovelr 01:09, 11 May 2010 (EDT)
[add comment] [edit] Everlina Johnson and John C. Goodwin [14 May 2010]Everlina and John C. Goodwin are the parents of my Great Grandfather: John Warren Goodwin. I have quite a bit of information on the latest Goodwins. If you would like me to invite you to my tree on Ancestry.com, please send your email address to kathleen4500@yahoo.com My younger brother has joined the World Net Goodwin DNA project through Family Tree; and, the DNA processing should be completed some time in June. I've gotten stuck on John C. Goodwin in Clark County, IN; and, I am hoping that this will help us to trace him to Kentucky or Pennsylvania.--Kathleen4500 14:36, 13 May 2010 (EDT)

Hi Gayel, thank you for your quick response. I just recently started researching the Knott family, because (and this is really true) one of my former collegues (I never knew her maiden-name (=Knot)) We discovered that her great grandfather was a cousin of the Henry Knott in my tree. Because I'm a curious person I will make a Knott family-tree or gather all information necessary. I will make a gedcom of the information I found so far and download in on werelate, so you cab see what I found so far. Because I promised myself not to work on familytrees during summertime and I just found a new job it will take some time to complete this Knot-tree. In the mean time I found some Knott's in Michigan on facebook (modern times ;-))and I mail them and I will study the tips you wrote. I know there is a active "dutch" community in Grand Rapids, but I also "hit a few brick walls during earlier searches. Anyway I'll keep in touch!! greetings from Groningen Henk--Smidtman 15:01, 5 August 2010 (EDT)
[add comment] [edit] Knot [10 October 2010]Hi Gayel, I saw the changes you made and I've been thinking (sometimes on a Sundaymorning, I have time to do so...) about the name knot As you might know is Rottum, the place were the first Knot's lived is a An artificial dwelling hill made by humans (wierde or terp). and when you see the flat landscape it is just a lump or small hill. The word knot is in dutch used for some kind of lump, namely a "knot wol" a "lump" wool (I don't know if I use the word lump right), also knot is a German word meaning uprising rock. As you might know in Groningen we have several German influences during all ages. It is just a day dream, but what do you think of it? Henk--henk 04:30, 10 October 2010 (EDT)

[add comment] [edit] Person - Kinder Ferguson (1) [30 October 2010]Hello GayelKnott, I noticed that you and User Delijim are connected to this Person Page and his parents. I located on the web a New York Times obit for him dated on 17 Aug 1879. Copyright is of course The New York Time. On WeRelate Person page his place of death is Scott Co., VA, not Scott, Co., IN. Further on the page it does say Scott Co., IN. Would you mind if I updated the place of death as Scott Co., IN, and not VA? I would add the source, and an abstract of the obit. I also sent this message to Delijim as well. The obit says he died at his daughter Mrs. Gobins in Scott Co., IN. I am interested in researching the wife Robbins. Trying to see if or what connection that the Ferguson family has with the Robbins family and or Roberts family's. There is a possible connection with my David Ashley Robbins of Oldham Co., KY. I am trying to research a Richard Ferguson (of Johnson Co., IN) who might be Kinder Ferguson & Mary Ann Robbins son. On the same day (8/20/1838) they received land in Johnson Co., IN Thank You, Debbie Freeman --DFree 20:43, 29 October 2010 (EDT)

You had several unsupported characters "???" in the name field, so I moved your "Possibly Prince Snow???" to the narrative section of that page and changed to name field to "Unknown", which is more in-line with the naming conventions. Just wanted you to know why the change was made. Best regards, Jim.--Delijim 10:52, 12 February 2011 (EST) No problem. Should probably have caught it myself a while ago.--GayelKnott 22:15, 13 February 2011 (EST) [add comment] [edit] WeRelate participation [18 March 2011]You mentioned that you had little success in getting people to participate in WeRelate. I tried once with my genealogy group of 35 and came up blank. The more I think about it, I doubt that any would ever try, although some love Ancestry. More sobering is what of the stamina of those who tried WeRelate? I examined the contributions of those Users with my common watched pages. The results are disturbing. Starting with the first 8 with highest commonality I found that only one was active and the rest last contributed as follows: Oct 2009, July 2009, July 2008, Dec 2008, and Nov, May, Mar 2007. Starting at the least commonality the results were slightly better with two in 2011, but the rest in 2009 and 2007. In other words, even if we can convince someone to participate, will they participate once and then give up because of the difficulty? For sure I would recommend that newbies don’t read the discussions on the Watercooler. HLJ--HLJ411 10:14, 18 March 2011 (EDT)
I certainly agree. One of the strengths of WeRelate is that there will be decades to sort out the duplicates and add documentation. I only hope that enough folks will be participating to continue improving our pages.--HLJ411 13:34, 18 March 2011 (EDT) Kind of what I hope, too.--GayelKnott 19:32, 18 March 2011 (EDT) [add comment] [edit] WeRelate Featured Page - week of August 22, 2011 [23 August 2011]Hi Gayel, another one of your Person Pages, Gilbert Scott has been selected as this week's WeRelate Featured Page - congratulations!

Thanks.--GayelKnott 18:16, 23 August 2011 (EDT) [add comment] [edit] Barbara P. wife of William W. Godfrey (b. 1850 in WV) [21 June 2012]Hello and greetings. I've been doing some research into a relative's line and came across your information at the WeRelate site. The Barbara P. (b. July 1850 in PA), who is listed as wife of William W. Godfrey, would be Barbara Pollock, daughter of Thomas Pollock and Isabella Wilson. I am of no relation to this line, but my 2nd cousin is. His maternal grandmother was Barbara Olive Samuelson (nee Godfrey), daughter of Joseph William Godfrey and Mary Ida (Scott) Godfrey. Joseph W. Godfrey (1879-1957) was the son of William W. Godfrey and Barbara Pollock. Barbara was the daughter of Thomas Pollock and Isabella Wilson, both of Scotland. My 2nd cousin's mother (the 3rd daughter of Barbara O. Godfrey Samuelson) related this information to me directly, from her knowledge of her family's history. (She herself has never done any genealogy work.) She also related, during my conversation with her, that her mother's grandfather, James Thomas Scott, was married three times and that one of the wives was a Mary Masterson. She did not know that Mary Masterson's only child, Mary Ida Scott, was the line through which she herself was descended. In any event, I can provide some information along this line, if you would like. Regards, Scott A. Byrd Vienna, Virginia--ScottAByrd 01:53, 6 October 2011 (EDT) Hi, Scott, We do get into extended families, don't we. My line is through David Garret Scott, a younger brother of James Thomas Scott. Some of the information I have on the Godfreys is from a descendant of Alverda Godfrey (sister of Barbara Godfrey Samuelson). The Scotts have had an on-going interest in family history and have done a lot of writing back and forth. If you or any of your cousins are interested, I've put excerpts/transcriptions of some of the letters on-line, and would be willing to answer any questions I can. The big question for this family is -- who were the parents of William Hazelton Scott? Lots of family stories, but neither I nor a (second) cousin have been able to find any actual documents. Any help on this line would be very much appreciated. I've made a note on Barbara Pollock's page regarding her parents, but please feel free to add any other information you wish. That's one of the things I like about WeRelate, the page "belongs" to the person it is about not the person who created the page, so anybody who has information can add to that page. If you don't want to bother with the formatting, you can add information in the text box, or even just put it on the talk page. Thanks for the info and comments, Hi, Gayel. I share your frustration regarding the antecedents of William H. Scott. In the event that you have not done so, I would explore the Hazelton line, in light of the fairly common practice of a child's middle name being either the maiden name of the mother or else the maiden name of either grandmother. Thus, digging into the Hazelton name in and around the Delaware/Maryland region might lead to the identity of the parents of William Hazelton Scott.--ScottAByrd 00:17, 19 December 2011 (EST)
Hello again, Gayel --- In reading your notes, I've been wondering why William Scott would have chosen to move from Georgia to Maryland. One notion that comes to mind is that Georgia did not welcome Catholics, but Maryland was one of the first places in the Colonies that did. Whether or not the time sequence works out on this, I do not know. But, perhaps this tidbit may prove useful in your research. In other words, William Scott might have come to Maryland as part of a larger migration (or group) of Catholics who departed Georgia. Information on that sort of event might help shed some more light on your query.--ScottAByrd 01:01, 18 June 2012 (EDT)
[add comment] [edit] Adair family tie-in [7 November 2011]Hi Gayel, thought I'd let you know I was working on the Adair family of Augusta/Rockbridge County and found a tie-in to one of the persons that you added: Best regards, Jim:)--Delijim 14:35, 6 November 2011 (EST) Thanks, Jim. I see I need to add some sources here. Not that I have much, and what little I have is all derivative. The closest I've got for documented people is Jacob Dunning Roe. Bottom line -- if there is anything you think needs changing, just go ahead and change it. On a somewhat different front, I see you occasionally add something to one of the Meadows/Meadors pages. As you know, this is a family that has been "done", and "done", and "done". And is often a mess. I'm slowly trying to sort out one small part of it, but again, I'd welcome any additions/corrections to any part of it that aren't based on somebody's gedcom or WFT, or whatever.

[add comment] [edit] Elizabeth Irene Randell [6 September 2012]Hello Gayle, I recently got an e-mail from WeRelate notifying me of a change to the family of Samuel Randell & Margaret Shoup specifically the death date for Elizabeth Randell. You, I'm supposing, changed the death date from 18 Mar 1978 to 18 Jun 1978. How did you get that date?? I changed it back cause according to the Washington Digital Archives and a copy of a Seattle Times Death Notice I received from a library volunteer, they both say she died Mar 18, 1978. Since I am not sure about the birth date I have not changed that. I am curious to know how you got 18 Jun 1978. Sincerely, Paul--PaulMax1957 04:18, 6 September 2012 (EDT) [add comment] [edit] Gossage-Jeffrey Family [23 September 2012]Thanks for fixing the family name. I'm still unclear as to how some of this works, but really like the site.

I have a tendency to be the nay-sayer often on this site, but it is with the best of intentions. My goals are the same as yours.--Daniel Maxwell 19:32, 22 November 2012 (EST) Okay, but there are a lot of good researchers on this site, along with the people who just do gedcom dumps. If any of them can offer a different perspective on problem solving, I'd certainly look at what they have to say. --GayelKnott 19:47, 22 November 2012 (EST) [add comment] [edit] Thanks! [28 November 2012]Gayel, Thanks very much for your suggestion re: William Dial. Even though it hasn't borne fruit yet, I really appreciate someone willing to help out. Relatedly, thanks for your support in helping the Brick Walls page to gain some traction! -- Jdfoote1 21:05, 27 November 2012 (EST) [add comment] [edit] Hello! [29 November 2012]Hi Gayle, I received email notification that you've been doing some work with John Ross and Elizabeth Crook, and just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Mary Burns Furr, and I am descended from the Burns and Crook lines in Clay County, KY. Do you have any more information about the Crooks? Cheers, Mary--Skookum 18:02, 29 November 2012 (EST) |
