Happy 7th Blogiversary to A Jewish Genealogy Journey

I started this blog seven (!) years ago to share stories of my husband's family and to share the research strategies I have used to discover these ancestors, cousins, and their stories.

I took a brief hiatus from blogging last summer when I spent 15 weeks obtaining my certificate in Genealogical Research from Boston University. And this week, I officially begin my participation in the next session of the ProGen Study Group. I'm excited for this new educational opportunity but will keep blogging, as ProGen is not quite as time consuming as the B.U. course.

Some favorite blog posts of mine from this past year include a series of posts about connecting with a genetic relative:

Analyzing a DNA Match
Analyzing a DNA Match - Who is the Common Ancestor
Wordless Wednesday ~ Half-Sisters and Half-Cousins

I keep hoping to connect with more DNA cousins, but it's a challenge when the shared DNA is a small amount. I recently created a DNA Toolbox on this blog, which is as much for my reference as it is for my readers!

Thank you for continuing to read my blog even though the posts are infrequent.
