Kay -
Thank you for the information! I have been to Gotland, Sweden, twice and you are correct, the Landsarkivet in Visby, has all the archive records for Gotland.
I have been to the archives and had them do a lookup on my family, while I was there. If you visit Sweden, the archives does not charge you, as long as you have made the trip to Sweden. If you mailed them a letter, from the USA, wanting a lookup, they would have to charge you.
Also, since your researcher was in Sweden, they would not charge him either.
I received the following note from a man named Lars today - I hope he is reading this response --- he was so wonderful to send a note to me stating the following:
>>There is a man, Olle Överby, who has collected families from Gotland for a long time. Luckilly he is of that type that shares.
On his home page, http://hem.passagen.se/ollove/indexeng.html, you can find a gedcom file with more than 150 000 names from Gotland. It is compressed to a zip-file that you can download.
