Welcome

Welcome to the WeRelate virtual genealogical community. Here we can learn from each other, work together and find what we need to make our research easier, more rewarding and fun.

You can create a free profile, Shared research pages and Personal research pages. Shared research pages are the next generation in message boards: they can be organized and edited. When you create a Shared research page title on your home page, the link will appear in red. Click on the red link, enter a message and save. (Creating a title for the page is not enough, your cousins can only search for pages with content.) Personal research pages are password protected wiki pages: visible to the community but editable only by you.

Person and Family pages are up and running. Take 10 minutes to see video tutorial/tour for people pages. You can view sample person and family pages (all you do is fill in the blanks), annotated pictures, and pedigrees with color coded migration maps. Check out a sneak preview of our new Family Tree Explorer, With this tool you can easily navigate and add pages to your famliy tree, view descendancy trees and ancestral trees for each person and view a sortable index of your tree.

If you are new to Wiki's, you may wish to check our many help and tutorial pages. Or, you can select edit on any page to see how the formatting commands are used. (You could click edit at the top of this page, for example.) You may also be interested in Recent Changes. Here you will see a list of all recent edits. Please help by deleting any spam or inappropriate material.

We are adding new features and material, frequently. Your comments would be greatly appreciated at the Watercooler. If you have any questions, please email me. Again thank you for participation. Enjoy! --sq

Tip for profile

Hi, my name’s Christian and I’m a WeRelate admin. I just wanted to give you a quick tip on filling out the information on your profile. When you include names and places that you are researching, you are creating links to shared research pages, or pages that allow researchers to collaborate on the same family lines in the same places. We try to classify these pages by surname and US state or country, in order to have an easy, standard way to begin collaborating with other researchers (ex. Phillips in Texas, not Phillips in Houston, Texas, or Phillips in Texas and Kentucky). If you include just one surname and one state or country per line, it will automatically link to the relevant shared research page, if it has been created by another researcher. If not, a red link will appear on your profile. By clicking on that link, you can create the shared research page in hopes of future collaborators running across it. See Help:Shared research pages for more information. I corrected the information on your profile to the best of my ability. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks.--Wrhelp 01:26, 7 June 2007 (MDT)
