πΏ We're halfway through #WTChallenge 6 β and the connections keep growing!
Our incredible volunteers have been hard at work expanding the #WikiTree family of guest star Marian Pierre-Louis. The research, the discoveries, the collaborations β it's what makes this week so special every single time.
There's still time to join in! Every profile edit brings us closer to those seven degrees of connection.

Finally managed transcribe the emigration papers of Leopold #Guth from #Simonswald and to add part of the transcript and a summary to his #WikiTree profile. It would need a lot more work, e.g. turning the research notes into parts of the biography, but for today it has to be good enough.
β Today is our #WTChallenge 6 Chat at Noon ET!
Stop by to share what you've found, swap research tips, and cheer on fellow collaborators as we build out the #WikiTree connections of guest star Marian Pierre-Louis.
It's a great opportunity to connect with the community and keep the momentum going. See you there!

3 Eight out of the nine countries I'm connected to are in the World Cup. Three played today. Germany won. Netherlands could only manage a draw. Sweden plays later tonight and I'm not gonna be awake by the time the game ends, so we'll see in the morning how good the football today was.
