Exhibitor Profile: WikiTree, Booth 537

WikiTree.com is a 100% free family tree collaborative website with the mission of creating one worldwide family tree. This is the place to connect and collaborate with both your distant family historian cousins and your modern family members that may not be genealogists.

To enable collaboration and sharing among both distant and modern family members, WikiTree has an extensive privacy system. Each profile has its own privacy setting. There are six different privacy settings to choose from: everything from completely open, which is appropriate for very distant ancestors, to totally private. Living people can even be “unlisted” so they don’t appear in indexes and search results.

The WikiTree community thrives on our shared mission to create one worldwide tree that connects us all. To make the project work, it is vital that users understand and abide by our 9-point Honor Code that promotes collaboration, respecting privacy, and doing our best to make sure our information is accurate. Read the full Honor Code at
http://www.WikiTree.com/Wiki/WikiTree_Honor_Code.

Although WikiTree is free, new members must be invited by a family member or fellow genealogist. If you embrace our mission and agree with the Honor Code please request an invitation in our forum (
http://www.wikitree.com/g2g/) or at the WikiTree booth in the exhibit hall at booth 537.
