I have a couple like them in my family collection, taken by Street Photographers who tended to catch people in their natural environment (like walking, or looking through a store window) and offered to sell the photo to them later.

I have started 4 or 5 Cemetery free space pages, and added 1000+ grave photos and profiles. I really enjoy researching the people and connecting them to others in the cemeteries. Great project! I wrote an article on my web site about becoming a cemeterist too, as well as one about Wikitree in general.Alley Cat Lanehttp://alleycatlane.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3200261713904947000.post-92002725754845945152015-02-10T18:59:38.579-06:002015-02-10T18:59:38.579-06:00Hello, I also found your post while doing a search...Hello, I also found your post while doing a search on Google. I recently received my maternal Haplogroup results from 23andme and I also fall in the H1C1 group. I have my family tree posted on Ancestry.com and my maternal line goes back to before 1000AD. Because we were descended from royalty, they kept wonderful records for my maternal line, so it was quite easy to trace them. My 9th great grandfather, Griffith Owen, was a physician who served on the Philadelphia Council and was an acquaintance of William Penn. His family came from Wales where they were royalty and lived in a castle. Some of my ancestors in this line were the king and queen of Denmark and a princess in Sweden.

I'm at 100% for my great grandparents, but then 12 2xG grand parents, 14 3xG grandparents, and 3 4xG grandparents. Even these last numbers are stretching it in places, as my information is very sparse - sometimes not even the full name. It works out to a measly 4%.<br /><br />The 1024 confusion probably comes from the fact that 2^10=1024, so the sum of 2^0 + 2^1 + ... + 2^9 = 1023. The reason your sum is 1022 is because you're not counting yourself.Andrew Bakernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3200261713904947000.post-48836470195796240972014-08-27T12:18:54.246-05:002014-08-27T12:18:54.246-05:00I totaly agree with Erin.

We found out that her (and therefore my) maternal haplogroup is also H1C1. This would have come to us by way of our Swedish ancestry, since my mom's maternal grandmother is full Swedish. Perhaps some of our Swedish ancestors are related.

It's harder for us to reach out to people who don't speak English, but anyone can participate in this project in any country! (In fact, we already have someone from France participating!)<br /><br />I, too, look forward to the day when WikiTree's interface is available in other languages, but in the meantime, it does support characters from other alphabets! So WikiTree pages can be written in any language.<br /><br />I hope you'll consider participating! If you have any questions about creating a project in a language other than English, I'd be happy to help.
