This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | The best thing you can do, when you start your Swedish research project is to start at home! You need to do your "basement and attic archeology" because in order to find your Swedish ancestor in the records of that country, you will eventually need to find the name of the village or parish where they were born, married, or lived in at some point in time. Check your drawers and in the attic for old letters, hymnbooks, family bibles in a foreign language, postcards with people or place names on them, old photos taken in Sweden, any documents in a foreign language, copies of homestead applications, applications to join fraternal orders or to obtain insurance. It is possible to find help to translate records in Swedish. |
