10 Genealogy / Family History Blogs for your Christmas holiday reading
Have you been promising yourself to indulge in some much overdue genealogy / family history reading over the holidays?
Me too. So, here is my list of the top ten genealogy blogs I enjoy reading when time permits. (And yes, even Genealogy Bloggers like yours truly read other genealogists' blogs.
We never stop learning and sometimes it’s nice to have a bit of a busman’s holiday from writing about the subject.)
Your Family Genealogist – (shameless self-promotion here) I often focus on little-known family history resources which are online and free.
The Legal Genealogist One of my favourites. Well written, short, sharp, pertinent and topical articles.

Amy Johnston Crow Amy’s How Not to Bore People about Genealogy was my favourite topic in recent times and is probably something we can all learn from. It’s particularly pertinent at this time of year when many genealogists will be spending time with family and friends.
Reddit – Genealogy OK, this one is not strictly a blog, rather it’s an online community/forum for genealogists. Many interesting topics are discussed but if you don’t have much time, probably best to go to one of the other genealogy blog sites.
Whether, like me, you’re in the southern hemisphere somewhere enjoying the sunshine or tucked up in front of an open fire in the northern hemisphere, I hope you will find time to indulge in a little blog reading about our favourite topic.
Please let me know in the comments section which of these blogs you enjoyed reading the most. And if there are any specific blog posts you thought were particularly useful, we would all like to hear about it, so we can zoom in on them ourselves.
