Finding Swedish Ancestors
Zoom (see link in details)
| Member Tim Benson will present his research of his great-grandparents who came to the US from Sweden in 1890. As part of the presentation, he will give a primer on Swedish church records, an amazing free, online resource that documents the entire Swedish population from birth to death for 300 years. He will chronicle his great-grandparent’s movements from small town Sweden to the capital of Stockholm, and finally their emigration to Kansas City where they ran a bakery for years. |
