WikiTreer of the Week interview: Marianna Greer. She assists other members with One Name Studies.
"Getting involved with a project or a One Name Study is an excellent way to connect with others. You don't need to be an expert — asking questions, collaborating, and learning from more experienced members is part of the process."
Marianna's advice for new members:
"First, get the WikiTree Sourcer app. It completely changed everything for me. I was so insecure about creating sources properly that I initially shied away from WikiTree, and having a tool that made sourcing clearer and more approachable gave me the confidence to get involved."
 Send this card or another vintage New Year's greeting card as a free & ad-free e-greeting.- Thank you for all your contributions in 2025.
Thank you for remembering those who came before us, and for creating something of lasting value for generations to come.
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And auld lang syne!
