Best of the Genea-Blogs - 24 to 30 June 2018

Dozens of genealogy and family history bloggers write thousands of posts every week about their research, their families, and their interests. I appreciate each one of them and their efforts.

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:

*  Studying Genealogy Periodicals by Jennifer Dondero on The Occasional Genealogist blog.

*  Source Quality Not Quantity by Michele Lewis on the Legacy News blog.

*  RootsTech 2019 is Coming with Big Changes by Amie Bowser Tennant on The Genealogy Reporter blog.

*  The Archives Lady:  Finding Records for Our Farming Ancestors by Melissa Barker on the Abundant Genealogy blog.

*  Research Like A Pro, A Genealogist's Guide, by Diane Elder and Nicole Dyer: A Book Review by Linda Stufflebean on the Empty Branches on the Family Tree blog.

*  New Filtering System for DNA Matching by Talya on the MyHeritage Blog.

*  The Lost Colony of Roanoke: Did They Survive? – National Geographic, Archaeology, Historical Records and DNA by Roberta Estes on the DNA eXplained - Genetic Genealogy blog.
