Scores 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:
* 3 Tips For a Trip to the Cemetery by Diana Elder on Family Locket.
* That Long Switchover by Judy G. Russell on The Legal Genealogist.
* Ethel's Citizenship by April on Digging Up the Dirt On My Dead People.
* Are You Using These 3 Genealogy Record Types? by Julie Cahill Tarr on Genealogy In Action.
