Welcome

Welcome to WeRelate, your virtual genealogical community. We're glad you have joined us. At WeRelate you can easily create ancestor web pages, connect with cousins and other genealogists, and find new information.

Video Tour

We strongly recommend that you spend a few minutes taking our video tour. It provides a brief overview of how to use the features of WeRelate. A little time spent here may save you time later. There are also in-depth text tutorials available from the Help button.

Create Webpages

The next thing to do is launch Family Tree Explorer, then select File in the Family Tree Explorer menu and give your family tree a name. You can either upload your GEDCOM or create person and family pages one at a time. To upload your GEDCOM, select File in the Family Tree Explorer menu and then click on Import and choose the GEDCOM file to import. The system will create an editable web page for each person and family in your GEDCOM. To create a page manually, select Add in the Family Tree Explorer menu and click on Add new person; enter the given (first name) and surname (last name), select Add, then fill in the blanks and save.

The Family Tree Explorer is a Flash application and will need to use some space in your computer to cache the files. That's computer talk for "If you store some ancestor page information on your computer, you will be able to view more pages faster. Otherwise, the system has to fetch each page every time you edit or look at it. This would make navigating your tree very slow.

Connect with other genealogists

You should always sign in when you are editing or adding pages. Use the signature button (second button from the right in the menu bar above the edit box) to sign your comments on discussion pages. That way others with similar interests can find you. If you click on the blue user name on any page, you will go to that person's home page. You can leave a message on his/her Discussion page. The Discussion page button is in the light green second level menu bar above.

Shared research pages

Shared research pages act like specialized message boards. Be careful to use only one name spelling and one location in each field; do not use abbreviations. Including postal codes and multiple spellings, names, or locations in these fields will cause your pages to be improperly indexed. It will make it harder for your cousins to find your pages and work with you. For more information see Shared research pages.

Wales township

Hi, Thank you for creating the excellent Wales Township article! I set the located-in place to St Clair county and renamed it to Place:Wales Township, St. Clair, Michigan, United States, which follows our standard for naming places. I had a couple of questions though:

• Should this place be merged with Place:Wales Center, St. Clair, Michigan, United States?
• You had listed Goodells as the preferred name. It seems like Wales Township ought to be the preferred name, but should Goodells be listed as an alternate name?

Martin and Chesley Johnson, Sumter Co, AL [21 January 2009]

I am trying to prove that Martin Johnson and Chesley Johnson are related to a Jesse Johnson. All three are listed in the 1840 Census of Sumter Co, AL A George Johnson was with them with no names in between all four names. This usually means they are related. I will try to find a Will on Jesse Johnson, died between the 1840 and 1850 Censuses of Sumter Co, AL. Would you possibly have any help for me.

Possible Duplicates [26 April 2009]

Several of your pages are possible duplicates. However I am unable to make that determination since the birth and marriage dates are marked private. Why is that? If these people are living you need to remove the pages from WeRelate. --Volunteer Administrator-Beth 18:03, 26 April 2009 (EDT)
