Best of the Genea-Blogs - 12 to 18 May 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:


And Some New Family History Records Were Created by Nick Thorne on The Nosey Genealogist blog.

*  Ancestry’s ThruLines – Part 3 – Asa Ellis Roberts by Don Taylor on the Don Taylor Genealogy blog.
