Starting Your Family Tree
Signed in. Fantastic.
- Click on the My Relate tab in the upper left menu bar and select Trees.
- Do you have a gedcom to import? Select no.
- Start your tree. Select the X.
- Now lets have some fun and add person and family pages to our tree. Do you have your list ready? I want to add Rev. Robert M. Cunningham, D.D.
- To add a person, click on Add in the upper right menu bar. Next, click on Person from the drop down menu.
- If you notice, I didn't add in his prefix (Rev), middle initial (M), his suffix (D.D.), or a second given name. This is because I can add these pieces of information later.
- Oops! I almost forgot to search to see if Rev. Cunningham already has a page on WeRelate. Did you forget? This is a Wiki; and there should be only one person page for Rev. Cunningham.
- Fortunately for you and I, when you click on the Add Person button, WeRelate automatically checks for similar pages. Lets check the results; I hope that the guidelines were followed for entering person and family pages; so that I can find his page if he already has one.
- Now we can add the title, middle initial and suffix for Robert Cunningham. Add the birth date, birth place and death date for your person, if you know them.
- At the bottom of the editing page select: show preview. If your details were entered correctly select: save page. Here is the image of Robert Cunningham's page.
- You may use the pipe symbol to change how your place displays on the page. Use the description field to add any additional information.
- This is the image of the new page after the place edits.
- Let's add a source citation.
- Our next step is to select our source type. Mine was a book, so let's select book for now.
- Next, enter in the information that you know about your source.
- Once you do that, click on the find/add page button for your results.
