September 2015 Update of FamilySearch Blogs

I am having an interesting time keeping up with the FamilySearch Blogs. The contrast with what was the situation a year or so ago is dramatic. The good news is that they have a lot of blog posts, the not-so-good news is that they keep making changes to FamilySearch.org and we find out about the changes after the fact. At least we do find out after the fact. Here is the current list.
