Want to understand my ancesters

Reviewed in the United States on July 6, 2013

I liked that it explained why Swedish people changed their names, Why some even male family members have different surnames. I am satified with explanations of Alphbet and how to pronounce vowels. I would recomend this book to anyone trying to understand Swedish ways or if they are planning a trip to Sweden. I read Your Swedish Roots as well and found very important things that I can use in tracking relatives. I am completely satisfied with the way Amazon handled my order.

Great book

Reviewed in the United States on April 20, 2014

This book is a wealth of information for someone learning how to do Swedish genealogy research and who does not have a working knowledge of the Swedish language. It covers everything from Parish records, military records and emigration records to examples of handwriting, holidays and diseases. I wish I had this book when I first started!

Excellent Genealogical Resource

Reviewed in the United States on December 21, 2010

Verified Purchase

This book, although now out-of-print for the most part, was recommended by a professional researcher at a genealogy conference that I attended in the fall of 2010, and for good reason, as it is an excellent resource. The author takes readers through the basics of Swedish pronunciations, parishes, names (and their English meanings), records, writing styles, and quirks (such as the fact that if one enlisted in the military, one's surname was changed to a "military" surname). It is a good book in which to find small, meaty facts that will further supplement the reader's understanding of their Swedish ancestors.
