B is for ...The Big Genealogy Blog Book

 I've been researching my family history for over thirty years. Along this genealogy journey I have been supported by hundreds of books, many of which I have listed on my Librarything page. 

During the 2021 #AtoZChallenge I will be writing about two of my passions, books and family history. I'll be taking a trip down memory lane and revisiting some of those books that have enriched my genealogy experience.


Blogging has enriched my life in retirement. Through my geneablogs I have connect with cousins, made a host of friends and have been given opportunities to appear on the geneastage.

One of the first bloggers I met at Rootstech in 2011 was Amy Lenertz, a fun and friendly young woman from Texas. Ten years ago in 2011 Amy, who was then Amy Coffin,  wrote The Big Genealogy Blog Book an eBook that she self published. 

At a time when I was still a newish blogger I found this book most useful. I still recommend this clear and concise guide to budding geneabloggers today.

The Kindle edition of this book is still available from Amazon : https://www.amazon.com.au/Big-Genealogy-Blog-Book-ebook/dp/B006423MOO

  3. Well you learn something new everyday. Amy Coffin is Amy Lorentz. Yes I'm pretty sure I bought this book on Kindle and found it very useful indeed. Good choice for today's meme.
