My May post about Blogger Research Toolboxes is a favorite with my readers and it’s time for the 2022 list.
As in the past, a few new websites have been added, while others have been removed, simply because the blogging site has gone dormant.
Many bloggers share terrific tips about little known genealogical resources and add these to their website, usually found on tabs called Research Toolbox or Resources or something along those lines.
Please take the time to visit each of these blogs and take a look at their toolboxes. Resources range from printable blank paper forms to DNA glossaries to free websites to location-specific links.

Thanks for including my Toolbox – you’ve reminded me I need to go through it again to check for dead links and to add new tools…like Cite-Builder 🙂
What a great list! And I’m honored that my ABT UNK Location Links is on it! It’s my genealogy and local history bookmarks tool. Besides Chicago, I have (hopefully) useful links for research in Lithuania; Portland, Oregon; and Corpus Christi, Houston, and Granbury, Texas. Like Teresa, you’ve inspired me to be sure to make sure I don’t have any dead links, and to add some new ones (Germany!). Thanks again for the shout-out, and for such a useful list!
Thanks for mentioning my resources page here. 🙂
