Join us for this Kane County Genealogical Society program with presenter Kathy Meade.

All are welcome to attend.

Kane County Genealogical Society

Learn how to trace your Swedish roots. The presentation will cover naming patterns, Swedish spellings, and Swedish geography. The presentation will focus on finding the key facts about one’s Swedish ancestor, such as the Swedish name, the parish of origin, and significant dates, such as a birth date, needed to use the Swedish records. We will review various personal records, U.S. public records, Swedish-American unique records, and emigration records to discover these facts and locate these valuable resources.
