The booklet has been revised several times since the first edition in 1963, and has enjoyed wide circulation, particularly in North America. As the popularity and enthusiasm for tracing one's ancestry has grown and the internet has revolutionized the way we conduct research, the guide was updated to include web-based resources. We are greatly indebted to James E. Erickson, Ph.D., Normandale Community College, Bloomington, MN, and editor of the journal Swedish American Genealogist for his efforts in preparing the latest edition.To order a complimentary hard copy of the Tracing Your Swedish Ancestry guide, send an email with your name and complete address to: ancestry@swedennewyork.comTo download the guide directly in pdf format, click on the link at the top right of the page.
