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:
* A Census, Rediscovered by Rhonda McClure on Vita Brevis
* How To Find Your Exact Relationship To Any Cousin by DiAnn Iamarino on Fortify Your Family Tree.
* Was It Mill, Mills or Milne? by Wayne Shepheard on Discover Genealogy.
* Why Is There a GEDCOM Standard and Why We Need a Version 7.0 by James Tanner on Genealogy's Star.
