Thanks for an absolutely stellar webinar! It was incredibly well organized, wonderfully illustrated and narrated. The information regarding geography was so helpful and led to being able to understand how to access records. I was most impressed by using the Household records as an index to access birth, death, and other information at the Swedish National Archives. The tips on organizing records from the Household Books was also very helpful. So very valuable! Thanks, Mike!
Very clearly explained, thank you. Comprehensive.
very informative
A well-presented webinar. The webinar was organized including a brief history of Sweden. Then was a brief overview of the alphabet and handwriting. At the end of the webinar, Mike had a slide of all the resources we can use. A very interesting webinar. Now I just have to get the patronymics figured out!
Many of the subject areas were a little basic for my level of working with Swedish records...BUT Mike did a wonderful job of going over a lot of material WELL in a short period of time. I especially enjoyed the case study search at the end of his presentation.
Great overview presentation! Succinct yet lots of good info.
Useful information well organized and nicely paced. I'm a fairly experienced user of Swedish records, but I still learned some new things that I can put to good use.
Thanks for info
