    Ian Beacall has added a special Halloween feature to the WikiTree Browser Extension that hunts through your CC7 or Watchlist for restless spirits:

    👻 Ghosts: no birth or death date at all
    🧟 The Undead: born more than 110 years ago, no death date
    💀 Skeletons in the Closet: marked Unsourced
    🐎 Headless Horsemen: no parents entered
    🎃 Halloween Folk: born or died on October 31 (bonus category!)

    Once it's done, the feature tells you exactly how haunted you are, with a score like "Your CC7 is 57% haunted." Try it out, then come tell us your score!

    New York By Way of China

    My great-grandfather’s brother Phillip immigrated to America at 15, apprenticed as a fresco painter, joined a wagon train heading west, and spent years wandering through mining towns and lumber camps before returning to New York by way of Panama. I envy his wanderlust.
