An Introduction to Wikitree

Description
Rob will introduce you to Wikitree (www.wikitree.com) – a free and collaborative database for family historians. It is 100% free and non-commercial; it works in your web browser – no fussy apps!
The key concept is that there is only one profile page for any person on Earth – users collaborate to cite sources to “facts”. It connects easily to record searching such as Find My Past, and to DNA information.
We will walk through a typical profile (Rob’s paternal grandmother) and show how the various tools can be used. Then we will look at some online pages and take questions.
