#QuestionOfTheWeek — Tell us about your mother (or another mother in your family tree)! 🤶

This week, WikiTree's G2G community is celebrating Mothers Week by inviting genealogists and family historians to share the stories of the mothers in their trees.

Every family tree is shaped by the women whose names are sometimes the hardest to find in the historical record. This is a chance to honor them — and to connect with a global community of researchers who understand just how meaningful that work is.

#QuestionOfTheWeek — Do you have twins, or other sets of multiples, in your family tree?
Twins in the family tree are both a delight and a puzzle for genealogists! From identical ancestors who stumped the census taker to triplets who all emigrated to different countries — multiples make for some of the most fascinating family stories. 👯‍♀️👯‍♂️
Do you have a twin story hiding in your family history? Maybe a set of twins who lived to remarkable ages, or multiples separated by circumstance? We'd love to hear about them!
Join the conversation in the WikiTree G2G community forum — where genealogists help genealogists for free, forever. 🌳

🧩 This Week's #ConnectionCheckers is Egg-cellent! 🥚
WikiTree's weekly Connection Checkers game is a unique exercise in collaborative genealogy — and this week's theme is perfectly timed for Easter! Participants explore their place on the WikiTree Big Tree by finding and verifying their connections to a curated set of notable profiles, this week featuring Gregg Allman, Peggy Lee, King Ecgberht, and nine others with egg-inspired names.
It's more than a game — it's a community-driven effort to verify and strengthen the connections in one of the world's largest collaborative family trees. Three standout contributors earn a spot in the Connection Checkers Hall of Fame each week, recognized for shortest path, longest path, and most verified steps — including helping fellow players.
New to WikiTree or Connection Checkers? You're welcome to jump in at any level. Post a connection you'd like to explore, and the community will support you from there.
Game runs through April 7. 🌳🧬
