Every two months I’m reminded that I must take out a subscription to Inside History magazine. As my genealogy friends tweet with delight that the postie has arrived with another fabulous issue, I must wait until it arrives at my local newsagent.
Issue 10 has been no different. As Inside History gave us a sneak peak of another wonderful cover, I once again kicked myself for not subscribing.
Worse still, I find myself with more of an anxious wait this time around. “Western District Families” is one of the Top 50 “must follow” genealogy blogs included in Jill Ball’s article”Entering the Blogosphere”.
Jill’s blog Geniaus is a favourite and one of the first genealogy blogs I read, so to be included among Jill’s own favorites is a thrill. Thank you Jill!
I was also happy to see some of my other favs get a mention too, including two with Western Victorian content, Tracking Down the Family and Carol’s Headstone Photographs
So as I wait until Issue 10 hits the newsstand, I might do something about ensuring Issue 11 hits my letterbox!

Congratulations on being on the list. Very well deserved. But I’m also shocked to read here that my blog has been listed. My copy hasn’t arrived yet, will be waiting impatiently now for it.
