If you're an adoptee or have bio-only parents, click here for your fan chart and look for the Ado, Bio, and Combo buttons near the top. Three of WikiTree's important "functional projects" are seeking new volunteers: Adoption Angels use their genealogical and DNA research skills to help adoptees find birth family. Please join!

The US Black Heritage (USBH) Project is the subject of an AARP Senior Planet article. From USBH co-leader Emma MacBeath: "My greatest personal joy is saying the names of enslaved ancestors, many of whom haven't had their name said for many generations. We can't go back and fix their past, but we can reconnect them with their families and descendants now." USBH needs your help connecting families torn apart by slavery. WikiTreer of the Week interview: Rod Savoie, an AI professional and Acadia Project member. "Preserving Acadian culture matters to me, and contributing to it through WikiTree is by far the best approach." —Rod Meet Rod in the Zoom chat on AI today. The Acadia, Portugal, and Puritan Great Migration projects are signing-up new volunteers. All these projects are hosting March challenges and seeking help from members like you: 1776 ...
