Tracey,

Interesting Question. The only thing that I have done was to upload pictures, then copy / paste from the notes section of that Individual in that blog entry. The best, so far is here:

I also have a surname Blog, but haven't gotten to the point that your question asks.

What I might suggest that you try, is generate a Genealogy Report, Export it to an RTF file, ans see if Blogger will take a Copy (from your word processor) and Paste (CTRL+V) into Blogger.

Tracey,

I had another thought, which I have done, is to post a question dealing With any 'missing information' or brick wall information. See if you get any comments on that entry.

In fact, I have had three or four connections on cousins I didn't know about before.

The up side to the slow process, person by person, is that you can Schedule WHEN the posts will be made. For example, I will work on a Family Group, then post information on that group, but schedule them over a period of time. I make a note as to when Blogger will schedule the posting of each of the articles. Depending on what your schedule is, it might be over a couple of hours or Days. On Tuesdays, I post on one Blog a message every hour starting at mid-night. But, I will have set them up days in advance.

I have foiund that google picks up on that, so that if someone does a google search and the keyword being searched is in your Post, Google will pick it up.

Only a couple of thoughts.
