Thanks, Judy
I just found that Swenson site and was wondering if they would be worth the effort. I
will definitely give it a try since I cannot find any searcheable archives for Jamestown
newspapers. I bought the Emibas CD and that is indeed our Malcom. I'm tracing the
lineage of all 5 brothers that came over here. The really exciting tool has been Genline.
It's expensive and tedious beyond belief but I have found our entire family in
Sweden; siblings and parents and all birth and marriage records. Really fantastic.
I'm tracing the brothers now as they moved out of the house there and bopped around
from farm to farm. I think I've pretty well tapped out all the information I can get
from the
Ancestry.com databases.
I have notes that my ggf served in the Swedish Military. Do you know of any database for
soldiers in the king's army?
