Best of the Genea-Blogs - 31 March to 6 April 2019

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:

*  Opt-out is Not Informed Consent by Judy G. Russell on The Legal Genealogist blog.

*  How to Export a FamilySearch GEDCOM with RootsMagic by Alyson Mansfield on the OnGenealogy blog.

*  Ask One Question for Better Genealogy Results by DiAnn Iamarino on the Fortify Your Family Tree blog.

*  Three of My Favorite Genealogical Finding Aids by Gena Philibert-Ortega on the Legacy News blog.

*  Back to the Basics with Land Records: Part 3 – Land Grants & Patents by Diana Elder on the Family Locket blog.

*  How the Genealogical Proof Standard Can Help Your Research by Amy Johnson Crow on the Amy Johnson Crow blog.

*  NERGC 2019 Officially Begins by Jenny Hawran on the Like Herding Cats blog.

*  NERGC 2019 ~ Day 1; ~ Day 2 by Elizabeth Handler on the From Maine to Kentucky blog.

*  A Genealogist's Love for the County Engineer's Office by Michael Dyer on the Family Sleuther blog.
