Best of the Genea-Blogs - Week of 27 June to 3 July 2021

  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:

THE Genealogy Show 2021: A review by Linda Stufflebean on Empty Branches on the Family Tree.

A Nice New Feature at DNA Painter by Kitty Cooper on Kitty Cooper's Blog.

The Revised FamilySearch Help Center by James Tanner on Genealogy's Star.

Solve Genealogy Mysteries Step-by-Step by DiAnn Iamarino on Fortify Your Family Tree.

Heads Up -- Great Changes Coming at FamilyTreeDNA by Roberta Estes on DNAeXplained - Genetic Genealogy.
