Scores of genealogy and family history bloggers write hundreds 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:
* Genealogy Tips: Researching Your Revolutionary War Ancestors by Katie Rebecca Garner on GenealogyBank Blog.
* My Wish Has Come True For An Every Name Index to Deeds at FamilySearch! by Annette Kapple on AK's Genealogy Research.
* How to Share Documents and Citations Within Your Family Tree by DiAnn Iamarino Ohana on Fortify Your Family Tree.
