Over the past few years I have had a great time writing, editing, and publishing Going In-Depth magazine each month as part of The In-Depth Genealogist. Check out what I have written for the publications below.
National Genealogical Society Magazine
“Why did mom keep that cracked tea cup?” (July/August/September 2015 issue) The article was based on the presentation I give on “Documenting Your Family Heirlooms” and was all about documenting your family heirlooms and the stories behind them.
Going In-Depth Magazine
In April 2012 I began a Jewish Genealogy column for The In-Depth Genealogist. This resource is for all levels of genealogist and includes a monthly newsletter, blog, forums, resources for kids and teachers, and many other great resources.
