Genealogy Magazines - A Quick Summary and Review of the Most Popular Publications

By Jeff Kona

How do you keep current with the newest genealogy databases, tips, techniques and case studies? Obviously you use online resources or you wouldn't be reading this article right now!

But what do you do when you're not able to use the Internet? And let's face it there are plenty of times when its just so much easier and more convenient to have a hard copy of an article in your hands, so you can take it, read it and learn anywhere.

Here is a review of some of the most popular genealogy magazines, some of which have been in publication for over 60 years!

Ancestry Magazine. This full-color periodical has just about everything you would want or need. Included are professionally written articles, expert advice and guidance, case studies and reviews. This is an all-around good publication for genealogists.

Family Tree Magazine. This magazine is designed to be both fun and easy to read. Topics covered are wide ranged from planning a historical vacation, to researching ethnic heritage.

Everton's Genealogical Helper. Since 1947 this magazine has been known for two things: an old-fashioned look, and excellent content.

Family Chronicle. Published bi-monthly this full-color magazine covers a wide-range of topics.

Internet Genealogy. This new bi-monthly magazine is published by the same parent company that publishes Family Chronicle. The focus is of course on using the Internet for family history research.

There are several genealogy magazines to choose from, each with their own unique strengths and special angle. Visit their websites to learn more about each magazine and to determine if you want to purchase a subscription.
