We are excited to collaborate with WikiTree for a WikiTree Kentucky Genealogical Society Challenge. Together we will research our seven chosen Kentucky profiles. We will look for connections, interesting insights, and even find the graveyards where they are buried. Maybe we can bust some brick walls.

This is a collaborative and competitive challenge. The participants in each challenge week form a team. Awards go to the top-scoring individuals in each challenge week, and to each member of the top-scoring team for the year.

  • Everyone who participates gets a 2023 WikiTree Challenge participation badge.
  • Anyone who collects a point bounty gets a “Bounty Hunter” badge.
  • Every week’s highest-scoring member gets a “Team MVP” badge. The team captain cannot be MVP.
  • Every participant in the highest-scoring week for the year gets a “WikiTree Challenge Winner” badge.
