Hej,
I have been working on my Swedish heritage for over 30 years but only in the USA. Now I have the chance to come to Sweden this summer to do more so I have been trying to get into Swedish Genealogy. I do not speak Swedish but i am pretty good at figuring things out, plus Google does a pretty good job of translating. So I started looking at the Swedish records on Ancestry.com and on this site.
My first effort is on the Olson family. Here is what I have to date:
