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 most 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:
* Choosing the Technique Used for Case Studies by Jill Morelli on Genealogical Certification - A Personal Journal.
* George and His Amazing Paper Trail by Marie Cooke Beckman on MarieB's Genealogy blog - Southeastern USA.
* Looking More Closely at DNA Shared Matches by Angela Napolitano on Vita Brevis.
* When Records Are Wrong: Why Original Research is Necessary by Kelly Wheaton on Wheaton Wood.
