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:
* WikiTree and the FAN Principle by Kathleen on Voices From a Distant Past.
* Walking the Clusters Back (WTCB) 2022 by Jim Bartlett on Segment-ology.
* Research Notes Revisited by Marcia Philbrick on Heartland Genealogy.
* How Much Does It Cost To Hire A Genealogist? by Jennifer Dondero on The Occasional Genealogist.
* When Genealogical Evidence is Wrong, Wrong, Wrong by Kelly Wheaton on Wheaton Wood.
* Discovering the New York Public Library Digital Collections by Gena Philibert-Ortega on Legacy News.
* DNA: In Search of…Signs of Endogamy by Roberta Estes on DNAeXplained - Genetic Genealogy.
* Free Update to Family Tree Maker 2019 for Registered Users by Keith Riggle on Genealogy Tools.
* Southern Colonial Research: Maps and the Law by Diana Elder on Family Locket.
Here are pick posts by other geneabloggers this week:
* Friday's Family History Finds by Linda Stufflebean on Empty Branches on the Family Tree.
* Friday Fossicking - 12th August 2022 by Crissouli on That Moment In Time.
* This Week's Creme de la Creme - August 13, 2022 by Gail Dever on Genealogy a la Carte.
