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:
* This 20th-Century Mom Had 22 Kids by Esther on MyHeritage Blog.
* Ancestry Sideview Technology™ – Me & Dad by Ellen Thompson-Jennings on Hound on the Hunt.
* Reflections on the Young Genealogists’ Conference by Janet Few on The History Interpreter - Janet Few.
* 'National Treasure' Time by Lindsay Fulton on Vita Brevis.
* Introducing the Library of Matches by Jonny Perl on DNA Painter Blog.
* Ancestry Only Shows Shared Matches of 20 cM and Greater – What That Means & Why It Matters by Roberta Estes on DNAeXplained - Genetic Genealogy.
* Cousin Russ -- We'll Miss You, and Thank You by Geoff Rasmussen on Legacy News.

* D N A Matching : It's a Marathon, Not a Sprint by Jacqi Stevens on A Family Tapestry.
* Celebration Sunday-Genealogy Happy Dance!-Remembering Cousin Russ by Cheri Hudson Passey on Carolina Girl Genealogy.
