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:
* Understanding Genealogical Sources by Phil Isherwood on Seeing the Wood for the Trees.
* Ancestry and the Longest Segment by Kitty Cooper on Kitty Cooper's Blog.
* 7-gen 1-sheet by Ann Raymont on DNAsleuth.
* Locating Wills & Probates by Dana Leeds on Dana Leeds.
* New Connection by Marcia Philbrick on Heartland Genealogy.
* These Are Not the Sullivans You're Looking For by Jacqi Stevens on A Family Tapestry.
* Ancestry's New StoryScout - Be Cautious by Roberta Estes on DNAeXplained - Genetic Genealogy.

* The Plan Was ....... by Valerie Hughes on Genealogy With Valerie.
* The Archive Lady: Researching Our Ancestors From a Distance by Melissa Barker on Genealogy Bargains.
