WikiTree Challenge

If you are not familiar with the WikiTree Challenge, check it out. The volunteer WikiTreer’s invited me to be on their live show as a guest. Volunteer genealogists went nuts researching my family tree. It felt like I was a winner on a game show. 

Genealogists compete to find the most resources, ancestors, and connections to the WikiTree collaborative tree.  Researchers from around the world help stitch together some of my unknown ancestors… all in one week.  It was amazing to see what they found.  This episode is a compilation of their video and some of my crazy ancestors they found.
