-------------------------------

As always, this scholarly journal has many interesting articles. Even if they don't directly cover my family, I often find research methodology information in them, and I usually marvel at the good fortune and/or dogged dedication of these researchers and authors.

The subscription price increase will be:

* One year (four issues): $40 US
* Two years (eight issues): $70 US
* Three years (twelve issues): $100 US.

Most back issues are now priced at $10 US each.
