Best of the Genea-Blogs - 3 to 9 November 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: 

*  Convert Ancestry ProTools to Trees using AutoLineage and AutoKinship! by Patricia Coleman on Patricia Coleman Genealogy LLC.

*  A Heartwarming Reunion Through Genealogy and DNA– Reuniting a Family Across Time and Distance by Diane Henriks on Know Who Wears the Genes In Your Family.

*  Using AI to Analyze Tax Data in a Research Log by Diana Elder on Family Locket.

*  AMERICAN MILITARY RESOURCES for Genealogists by Kelly Wheaton on Wheaton Wood.

*  Unlock Your Family’s History: 5 Simple Steps to Begin Your Genealogical Journey by Lynn Broderick on The Single Leaf.

*  One of my Most Heart-breaking Genealogical Discoveries by Melvin Collier on Roots Revealed.
