I finally got a few moments to read my May/June issue of Digital Genealogist – the online magazine published by my friend, Liz Kerstens. I don’t typically write about magazines on this blog, as I’ve been so close to the subject for all these years, but this issue of Digital Genealogist was so good that I had to stop and at least mention it. The articles all seemed to have something for me… And that’s kinda’ unusual. Following is a list of the articles from the Table of Contents. I found that Liz has two of the articles “in the clear” as pdf files on her Digital Genealogist website, and have hot-linked those articles.
