If you have family from any of the Nordic countries (Sweden, Denmark, Norway or Finland) who emigrated to Argentina, there are church records available. Buenos Aires had a small population of Scandinavian immigrants. They primarily belonged to Norwegian sailing families. Church records have been microfilmed from 1888-1919, with some later records appearing on the Norwegian National Archives website. These records include, many times, places of birth in Norway. The church records can be seen at [http://www.arkivverket.no/URN:kb_read Skannede Kirkeboker].  (This website is available in English and Norwegian only, although, many of the records are written in Spanish.)

Most Argentinian emigrants left through Buenos Aires or the major cities with international transportation. There are records of departures including emigration list, passport records, and passenger lists. The information in these lists varies over time but usually includes the emigrants’ names, ages, occupations, and destinations. In addition, relationships and last residence or birthplace may be given. Passenger lists are available from the Dirección de Puertos (Administration of the Port) and for the air travel from the Dirección General de Aeronavegación (General Administration of Aviation) which comes under the Ministerio de Aeronáutica (Ministry of Aeronautics).
