You know, back when I was taking my baby steps in genealogy, I remember how excited I would get each time I snagged a new issue of Everton's Genealogical Helper. For the longest time, it was the only genealogical magazine out there -- something of a lifeline. So I'm pleased to share with you the following news about EGH's continuing evolution:
