*[[Minnesota Swedish Biographies]]  
As of June 2010, Kathy Spence Johnson is the archivist. She can be contacted at kathy.johnson@mnumc.org

*[[Swedish American: Minnesota Churches|Minnesota Swedish Churches]]  
From their website (found under “About us”):
*[[Swedish American: Minnesota History|Minnesota Swedish History]]  
 
*[[Swedish American: Minnesota Newspapers|Minnesota Swedish Newspapers]]
Ask the archivist for:
*[[Swedish American: Minnesota Social Life|Minnesota Swedish Social Life]]<br>
 
*full names of clergy and dates of service at a church
*biographical information and photographs of clergy
*early history of a local congregation
*annual statistics of a congregation
*previous names of a congregation
*baptismal, marriage, and membership records of churches no longer in existence
*help with genealogy research
*past actions of conference committees and teams
*how to care for local church records
 
All churches that are still operating keep all their own records. If a congregation merged with another congregation then their records are kept at the church in which they merged. The archive only has records for discontinued congregations.
 
'''Research Requests:'''
 
Researchers can email Kathy Johnson at the email address above for Minnesota Methodist information. There is no charge for research but there is a charge for more than 10 copies (about $.25 per page). There is also a charge for postage. There may be a charge for scans, depending on size and how complicated they are.
 
Researchers are welcome to come in person but it is best to make an appointment to insure that the archivist will be there.

===History===
 
==== Swedish Beginnings in Minnesota  ====
 
==== Scandia  ====
 
Scandia in Washington County is known as the home of the first Swedish settlers in Minnesota in 1850.  For history, historic sites, a timeline, and relevant online indexes see [http://www.wchsmn.org/scandia/]
 
==== Swede Hollow  ====
 
Swede Hollow was a neighborhood of Saint Paul, Minnesota.  Swedish immigrants arriving in the 1850s gave their new home in this valley the name "Svenska Dalen" or Swede Hollow in English.  It was a valley where some of the poorest Swedish immigrants settled.  Residences were constructed almost entirely from scrapped building materials.  Because of this and other poor conditions, the area can be described as a slum.  The Swedes moved on and the area was later populated by waves of other poor immigrants -- Poles, Italians, and Mexicans.
 
Today the area has been cleaned up and has been designated as a nature center.  It has returned to its original woodland state and is a part of the city park, Swede Hollow Park. 
 
To learn more about Swede Hollow see [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swede_Hollow http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swede_Hollow]

==== Cambridge, Minnesota  ====

<br>
 
==== Lindström, Minnesota  ====
 
Lindström’s slogan is “America’s Little Sweden”. Daniel Lindström was one of the first settlers in the area. Another who came with him was Erik Norelius, whose personal journals documented in part, formed the basis of Vilhelm Moberg’s novels of the Swedish emigration to the United States, The Emigrants. The two main characters in Moberg’s novels were Karl Oskar and Kristina Nilsson.
 
The City of Lindström celebrates Karl Oskar and Kristina annually by having "Karl-Oskar Days". This event takes place mid-July and there are many activities including the Coronation for "Karl-Oskar Princess", parades, a street dance and fireworks. There is still a statue of Karl-Oskar and Kristina in Lindström as a tribute to the early Swedish emigrants. For more information on this cultural event see [http://www.chisagolakes.com/kodays/ http://www.chisagolakes.com/kodays/] <br>  
 
==== Vasa Order of America  ====
 
The Vasa Order of America is a benefit fraternal society which began more than a century ago to help Swedish immigrants learn the new language, the ways of the new country and share problems. Now Vasa helps share and preserve the rich heritage and values of the “Old Country.” To learn more see http://www.vasaorder.com/aboutorg.htm .
 
The Vasa Order of America in Minnesota is in District 7. There are 6 local lodges. For more information see: http://www.vasaorder.com/districts/district7.shtm
