My genealogy blog turns 3!

15 June 2015

On June 14, 2012, I published the first post on Organize Your Family History, a blog that marries my love for organizing with my love for genealogy research. I’m really enjoying writing this blog, because it helps me (and, I hope, others) get past the overwhelmed feeling that genealogy research can sometimes produce. It also helps keep me focused on how I can organize my research to make me a happier genealogist.

I blog there twice a week most weeks (Tuesdays and Fridays). Much like this blog (on which I publish posts on Mondays and Thursdays most weeks), it helps me look at the world through the eyes of a blogger. With OYFH it’s usually genealogy related and with POMO it’s life related. But the principles of organizing remain the same, no matter what it is you’re organizing.

This year, I hired a designer, Rebecca Pollock to create a new header and business card for Organize Your Family History. (That’s the business card front, above.) She also created a Pages template into which I’m currently writing an ebook on genealogy organizing that I will sell on the site.

If you’re interested in genealogy, I hope you’ll come check it out. I’ve been pleased with the reception it’s received in the genealogy community!
