My criteria for "Best of ..." are pretty simple - I pick posts that advance knowledge about genealogy and family history, address current genealogy issues, provide personal family history, are funny or are poignant. I don't list posts destined for daily blog prompts or meme submissions (but I do include summaries of them), or my own posts.
Here are my picks for great reads from the genealogy blogs for this past week:
* DNA Discoveries: Lisa's Story by Claudia C. Breland on the Claudia C. Breland Genealogy and Online Research blog.
* DNA Painter -- Touring The Chromosome Garden by Roberta Estes on the DNAeXplained - Genetic Genealogy blog.
* Searching for Biological Relatives: From DNA Test to Reunion by guest writer Richard Weiss on the MyHeritage Blog.
