Sweden Parish Pages: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 21:12, 18 May 2010

The Swedish Parish Pages are under construction. Each parish page is listed in alphabetical order through the table below. Remember we are using the correct Swedish alphabetical order which includes the Å, Ä, and Ö after the letter Z respectively. As each parish page must have a unique "page name" in the FamilySearch Wiki, please consider the following:

Although most parishes have a unique name, there are many that do not. In these cases the name of the county, district, or city has been used in the title of the page.

Each parish will have its own page (no matter when the parish was created).

The effort to create a great page for each parish in Sweden is a huge project, any assistance would be appreciated.
