Randy's "Best" Genea-Musings Posts for 2018

I guess it's OK to write this post now - I wrote over 990 blog posts in 2018, including some pretty good ones, IMHO.  I want to list the "best ones" - according to me!  They are the ones I want to be able to easily find later, or ones that might help another researcher.  I'll list them in chronological order:

36 of them ... and I could have added more. It is heavy with Dear Randy, RootsMagic, Ancestry and personal research posts, but those are the ones that I want to easily be able to find and those that might help another researcher. 
 I hope you enjoy clicking through some of these over the New Year's holiday.  I did!  It's funny (haha, not strange) that I don't recall writing some of them.  More Gene-amnesia?  

 In addition, I transcribed and sourced many of the records and documents on hand in my weekly   Amanuensis Monday and Treasure Chest Thursday posts, plus the ancestor biographies in the 52 Ancestors series.  

With this list, I should be able to remember some of what I did wrote in 2018!
