Coming Soon: Future Posts

Although I haven't posted anything for months, I still plan on continuing this blog. I probably will not be able to post as often as I did in past years, but I hope to publish a few articles over the next few months.

Some possible article topics will be:

  • A continuation of the "Looking for My German Ancestors" series
  • Additional columns in the "Genealogy and History Thoughts" Series
  • Additional editions of the Carnival of Central and Eastern European Genealogy
Depending upon how much time I have, I may post articles on other topics. Are there any topics you would like to see me cover on this blog? Please feel free to leave comments with your thoughts and suggestions. Thanks!

110th Edition of the Carnival of Genealogy Posted!

The 110th edition of the Carnival of Genealogy has been posted! You can read it here. The topic for the next edition will be on:
"Autumn Weddings! It's been 4 years since the topic of weddings was covered here in the Carnival of Genealogy so we're overdue for a little romance, I'd say! And in keeping with the season, we're going to feature weddings that took place in the autumn months of September, October, or November. So write up an article about a couple on your family tree that were married in autumn and submit it to the 111th edition of the Carnival of Genealogy! The deadline for submissions is November 1st."


Enjoy!

109th Edition of the Carnival of Genealogy Posted!

The 109th edition of the Carnival of Genealogy has been posted! You can read it here. The topic for the next edition will be on
"What tree best represents your family’s history? Is your family most like a towering redwood, weeping willow, or a stately oak? Maybe you think of your family more like a brightly lit Christmas tree or a tropical palm. Whatever your choice, write it up and tells us why and submit your article by the deadline of October 1st."


Enjoy!

  • September
  • October

Deadline for 32nd edition of the Carnival of Central and Eastern European Genealogy changed!

I completely forgot to post reminders for the submission deadline for the upcoming edition of the Carnival of Central and Eastern European Genealogy, so I've decided to extend the deadline for the edition. The new deadline is August 21st, and the edition will be posted on August 28th. You can submit your article here.

Update: I forgot to mention the topic. (I'm sorry about that.) The topic will be on personal research, experiences and tips.
