Best of the Genea-Blogs - Week of 31 October to 6 November 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:

* Did You Know that Ancestry Has 1, 175 FREE Collections? by Kenneth Marks on The Ancestor Hunt.

*  A Wink and a Nod From My Ancestors: Flyin’ Over the Old Home Place – 52 Ancestors #343 by Roberta Estes on DNAeXplained - Genetic Genealogy.

*  WATO or Not to WATO - What is the Question by Robin Wirthlin on Family Locket.

*  DNA Testing and Privacy: Ancestry, 23andMe and More by Diahan Southard on Your DNA Guide Blog.
