My criteria for The Best of the Blogs is this: I look for blogs that highlight genealogy methodology, new records, social and historical context, current events, and educational and volunteer opportunities. I try especially to focus on blogs that document the Irish and the Irish diaspora and may be of interest to TIARA members.
