Welcome

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

Create Webpages

The first 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 a 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 caching is not permanent and only lasts as long as you are at WeRelate each time.

Connect with other genealogists

You should always sign in when you are editing or adding pages. Use the signature button to sign your work (the swiggle, second from the right, above the edit box). 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.

Greenwwod / Brokenshaw [3 October 2010]

Hi Bit of a long shot that you are still watching as I see that you put up a Brokenshaw / Greenwwod page in 2007. You know that john and Elizabeth Lean Brokenshaw had a son James, well James was my grandfather. It is also interesting that Johns father. also a john, married an Elizabeth Greenwood born in Egloshayle. I believe that the two Elizabeths were cousins.

George Hill [5 October 2021]

Hi, just doing some family history and came across your entry for George Hill George Edward Hill was born in Kapunda, South Australia to parents John Hill and Mary Anderson. George was one of seven children and his father John is from Cheshunt, Hertfordshire UK, born 1808. He came to Australia at age 28 as a naval bosun on HMS Buffalo (and became a famous pioneer of the state) and after 16yrs in the navy serving on many ships he decided to settle in South Australia in 1836. Here he met and married Mary Anderson who emigrated from Ewes in Scotland and together they had their 7 children and in 1850 moved from Adelaide to Kapunda where George the youngest son was born. George lived in various towns north of Adelaide and settled in Port Pirie. He married Elizabeth Jane Elliott at 17yrs, had 4 children, Elizabeth died at 37 years of age and George remarried Ann Mary Fernee (14/10/1850 born Highgate, Middlesex, UK) in 1881. They had no children. Ann Fernee was a nurse in UK and after George died at 46 years of age she lived with her sister Eliza in Port Pirie. She then moved to Berri, South Australia where she died in 1918.
