The Swedish Church kept excellent records. They kept them in Finland too, which was a result of Sweden’s control of Finland in varying degrees over several centuries. When they lost control the Church still handled the record keeping. Very handy for research.

Haven’t studied Sweden ever since I don’t have anyone that I know that was from there. What makes my research difficult outside of Germany is things like the Irish Civil War as well as the isolation of especially the part of Ireland where my family was from or my mom’s side that because of the Austrian-Hungarian empire, I have no idea if the names will be in Latin, the native language, German, or Hungarian.
