Best of the Genea-Blogs - Week of 7 to 13 July 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:

*  Genealogy and the Little Ice Age: The Poor Laws by Wayne Shepheard on Discover Genealogy.

 ProTools Part 5 and ProTools Part 6 by Jim Bartlett on Segment-ology.

*  Top 5 Free Genealogy Resources by Diane Henriks on Know Who Wears the Genes In Your Family.

*  Photographs and Memories – A Family Reunion by Deborah Holman on Who We Are and How We Got This way.

*  Top Ten Skills Every Genealogist Needs by John Reid on Anglo-Celtic Connections.

*  DNA and Law Enforcement by Kitty Cooper on Kitty Cooper's Blog.

*  The Big Y-700 Test Marries Science to Genealogy by Roberta Estes on DNAeXplained - Genetic Genealogy.
