Class notes:
Emigration Records
Use the Emi-Base database available on the FamilyHistory Library desktop under CD's. It is CD #2213 or do a search for "Sweden" to see a list of CD's available. This database can also be found on the "Consultant computer" at the Scandinavian help desk at the Family History Library. Heaviest emigration from Sweden occurred in the 1880s. The lists were taken from the Household examinations rolls in Sweden and contains emigrants mainly from 1850s forward. The database lists emigrants to the U. S. as well as to Denmark, Brazil, Australia, and other countries. Consultants suggest that when a place of birth is known, you use this information in the Search box rather than a name to narrow the results. To enter a date use this format: Yyyy,mm,dd [18501201=1850 December 01]. One way to get the birth date is from the 1900 census. It does not do a soundex search so variations of the surname must be tried to find the correct record. Also try looking for the wife or children if they also emigrated. Locate the last place of residence to follow an individual in the Household examination rolls back to his birth. The page of the household examination record is given in the entry for the emigrant making it easy to find the correct entry. The birthdate is the birth as recorded in the Household examination rolls and may or may not be correct. The date or departure is the date they left the parish - not the date they left the port.
Important note: DO NOT USE PRINT ON THE BOTTOM OF THE PAGE. Use the print feature on the right hand side of the page to get just one entry.

Church Records
Church records for Sweden are online on a subscription website available free in the Family History Library and its centers. It is: www.arkivdigital.se. It can be found by going to the patron desktop at the library and clicking on "Genealogy websites". Scroll down to find "Sweden" then choose "Arkiv Digital". To view the instructions in English, click on "Visa" and "Language" and "English." Choose your parish from the alphabetical list or use the "Search Archives" search bar. If there is more than one parish with the same name, hover the mouse over the county code and the name of the county will appear. Remember that Sweden has three additional vowels that are found at the end of the Swedish alphabet. Arkivdigital is a fee based site. You can use it for one day only for a small fee.
Click on the name of the parish and a list of record types and time periods will appear. A drop down menu will help you navigate to the various pages of the parish record. Image tools will allow you to sharpen the image, change the brightness, etc.
Note also that each image has a page number assigned to it. This number should be written down when you find the entry so you can quickly retrieve it the next time you search for the same entry.
Use the print feature on the arkivdigital website to print out a copy of the record. It will give you better quality than using irfanview; or go to File - Save as to save an image to your flash drive.
