Genealogy Gems

Genealogy gems from the first week of September 2012:

The British arm of Ancestry.com has added an impressive list of English and Scottish records, summarized on the British GENES blog.

The Federation of Genealogical Societies had their annual conference in Alabama last weekend. Catch the highlights from Amy Coffin, Diane MacLean Boumenot, and the Sacramento Genealogical Society

The Mid-West Family History Expo is under way. Read about it on Susan Peterson's blog.

Journey of Letters — Mariann Regan writes: "The day I found boxes of personal letters in my parents’ Virginia attic, I had misgivings about investigating my family’s past. What good could come of poking through other people’s correspondence? Wouldn’t I be just snooping?" More at The Armchair Genealogist.

Through the years, Dick Eastman has found interesting genealogy records on eBay.
