I guess it's OK to write this post now - I wrote over 870 blog posts in 2021, including some pretty good ones, IMHO. I want to list the "best ones" - according to me!

42 of them ... and I could have added more. It is heavy with DNA, Dear Randy and personal research posts, but those are the ones that I want to easily be able to find and those that might help another researcher.
I hope you enjoy clicking through some of these over the New Year's holiday. I did! It's funny (haha, not strange) that I don't recall writing some of them. More Genie-amnesia?
In addition, I transcribed and sourced many of the records and documents on hand in my weekly Amanuensis Monday and Treasure Chest Thursday posts, plus the ancestor biographies in the 52 Ancestors series, and the "Seavers in the News" and "Carringers in the News" series.
With this list, I should be able to remember some of what I did wrote in 2022!
