GAGs - GeniAus' Gems - 10 April 2015

I feel like I've been on an express train ride since last Friday with Easter celebrations, school holidays and house renovations but I have managed to keep up with blog reading!

Among the deluge of blog posts I have read are reports from AFFHO Congress 2015. I enjoy reading these reports especially those that tell of sessions I did not attend. Several hundred folk have visited the list of links I am compiling in my Reflections of Congress post and new ones trickle in each day. Several geneabloggers who were at Congress have not yet written reports on their activities so please keep returning to the post to read the latest reports.


My GAGs for this week are:

1. The Trans-Tasman ANZAC Day Challenge is running again this year. Please consider contributing a post.
