Best of the Genea-Blogs - Week of 2 to 8 January 2022

 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:

*  Looking Back, Looking Forward: 2022 by Leah Larkin on The DNA Geek.

New Year, New Goals by Paul Chiddicks on The Chiddicks Family Tree.

Welcome to 1926! by Judy G. Russell on The Legal Genealogist.
