The Genealogy Blog Party: Celebrating Family History Month

In 2001, U.S. Senate Resolution 160 designated the month of October as Family History Month.

While Family History Month may no longer be a priority for the Senate – or any other branch of government, for that matter – it remains something to celebrate for family historians around the world!

So, how will YOU be celebrating? What discoveries do you hope to find? From which classes, webinars, institutes, etc., will you be learning? How will you entice your DNA matches to respond to your emails?

Celebrate Family History Month 2021

This month’s Genealogy Blog Party is another “blogger’s choice,” which means YOU get to decide which of your fave posts you want to share. There is one requirement: your post(s) must have something to do with family history.

Suggested topics include (but are not limited to):

  • Methodology and research resources
  • Ancestor stories
  • Tips and techniques for telling family stories
  • Tips and techniques for writing your autobiography
  • “How I Solved It” stories
  • Family treasures and ephemera
