Best of the Genea-Blogs - Week of 23 to 29 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:

*  When Digitisation Goes Bad Part I: The Night Of The Living Death Duties by Dave Annal on Lifelines Research.

Relationships by Marcia Philbrick on Heartland Genealogy. [About RootsMagic]

Family Tree Research Takes Time to Bear Fruit by DiAnn Iamarino on Fortify Your Family Tree.

*  When All You Need is a Little ‘Prompt’ by Paul Chiddicks on The Chiddicks Family Tree.

AirTable and GDAT by Jill Ball on GeniAus.

PERSI: Search Tips, Part 1 by Cari Taplin on Genealogy Pants.
