The Sleepless Genealogist's Blog

 

Hello Genealogy Community!!

I have decided to start a new blog, since my old blog is more for my personal family. This blog will be geared towards growing my professional online presence.

I look forward to sharing my 40 years of knowledge, the ups the downs, the mistakes, and best practices.

 My website is The Sleepless Genealogist (thesleeplessgenealogist.com)

My free google genealogy event calendar is on the website as well (thesleeplessgenealogist.com/calendar)

Everyone can actually overlay this calendar on their own google calendar, by clicking on the plus sign in the bottom right of the calendar. 

Be sure to follow the blog, to be the first to get the latest posts.

Linda
