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:
* Ancestry’s New Right Click Feature! by Diane Henriks on Know Who Wears the Genes In Your Family.
* Red Flags in Your Research? by Kathleen Brandt on a3Genealogy.
* The Simple Guide to Family History Interviews by Maddy on Family Wise LTD.
* Genealogy Tips: Not Every Burial Can Be Found by Gena Philibert-Ortega on GenealogyBank Blog.
* Are Genealogy Blogs Still Relevant? by Marian B. Wood on Climbing My Family Tree.
* Got DNA Results? What You Should Do First by Ellen Thompson-Jennings on Hound on the Hunt.
