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:
* AI & Genealogy: Gemini HTR for Parish Record Transcription and Analysis! by Diane Henriks on Know Who Wears the Genes In Your Family.
* Artifacts + Context = Family History Story by Marian B. Wood on Climbing My Family Tree.
* Evaluating Double Cousin Relationships with Banyan DNA by Diana Elder on Family Locket.
* 2 Free Tools Can Read Document Images for You by DiAnn Iamarino Ohana on Fortify Your Family Tree.
* Multitasking in Genealogy: Why Focused Research Yields Better Results by Ellen Thompson-Jennings on Hound on the Hunt.
* Finding Your Ancestor’s Church by Alice Childs on Genealogy Now.
* Telling Your Life Story in Bullet Points by Gena Philibert-Ortega on Legacy News.
* Until You Know That You Know by Jacqi Stevens on A Family Tapestry.
* Perplexed but Learning by Marcia Crawford Philbrick on Heartland Genealogy.
