Best of the Genea-Blogs: Week of 12 to 18 May 2024

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: 

*  Leaving the Past to the Future 5: Publishing Your Stories by Wayne Shepheard on Discover Genealogy.

 How to Find Where Newspapers are Available with Chronicling America 2.0 and How to Find All the Digitized Titles in Chronicling America Version 2.0 by Kenneth Marks on The Ancestor Hunt.

*  Follow Up on Genealogy Clues and Leads by DiAnn Iamarino Ohana on Fortify Your Family Tree.




Looking For John Thomas by Jeff Record on The Last Aha.





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 - 17th May 2024 by Crissouli on That Moment In Time.

*  This Week's Creme de la  Creme - May 18, 2024 by Gail Dever on Genealogy a la Carte.

*  5 Star Posts Week of 05/12/2024 - 05/18/2024 by Doris Kenney on A Tree With No Name.

Readers are encouraged to go to the blogs listed above and  read their articles, and add the blogs to your Favorites, Feedly, another RSS feed, or email if you like what you read. Please make a comment to them also - all bloggers appreciate feedback on what they write.

Did I miss a great genealogy blog post? Tell me! I currently am reading posts from over 900 genealogy bloggers using Feedly, but I still miss quite a few it seems.
