Best of the Genea-Blogs - 2 to 8 June 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:

*  Legwork by Jeff Record on the Vita Brevis blog.

*  The Future of the Southern California Jamboree by the writer of the Genealogy Jamboree Blog.

*  GEDmatch Opt-In: A Plea by Rachel King on the Toll Genealogy blog.

*  Why Don't I Share Any DNA With My Known Relative? by Candace Camilo on the Legacy Tree Genealogists blog.
