Best of the Genea-Blogs - Week of 6 to 12 October 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: 

*  Genetic Networks, Part 5: Use Ancestry Pro Tools’ Enhanced Shared Matches by Rick T. Wilson on MyFamilyPattern.com.
