80th Edition of the Carnival of Genealogy Posted!

The 80th edition of the Carnival of Genealogy has been posted! You can read it here. The topic for the next edition will be on
"Your Genealogy Blog's Obituary. If your blog ended or was lost/deleted today,
how would you write it's obituary? What were the highlights of your blog? What
is its history? This theme was suggested by Schelly Talalay Dardashti of Tracing the Tribe who will be
hosting this next edition of the COG. You can read about the inspiration for
Schelly's choice of topic here.
The deadline for submissions is October 1, 2009."

79th Edition of the Carnival of Genealogy Posted!

The 79th edition of the Carnival of Genealogy has been posted! You can read it here. The topic for the next edition will be on
"Family Fun! Research an event your ancestor may have attended. Did your
ancestor live within a few blocks of the parade route for the annual Fourth of
July parade in the town where they lived? If your family lived in a rural area,
perhaps they attended a county or state fair. If they lived in a big city,
perhaps they attended a play or movie opening. Was there an amusement park or
traveling carnival near the area your family was from, one they might have
visited? Were there fireworks displays in the town your family was from? How
much do you know about the types of entertainment your ancestors might have
enjoyed? Check into it then write it up! This "fun" edition of the Carnival of
Genealogy will be hosted by Jasia on the Creative Gene blog. The deadline
for submissions is September 15th."


Enjoy!
