About Swedish Kin
Swedish Kin is made in Mora, in the province of Dalarna, Sweden, by Jonas Larsson. It is the English sister site of Släktappen, a Swedish tool for family historians.
We started Swedish Kin because many people with Swedish roots find the old Swedish records hard to read. The words are old, the handwriting is difficult and most guides are written for Swedes.
How we work
- Every fact has a numbered source, and the sources are listed at the end of each page.
- We use Swedish archives, public authorities and research where we can, and mark Swedish-language sources "(in Swedish)".
- When the sources do not agree, we say so. When they do not say something, we leave it out.
- The pictures on the site are illustrations made with AI. They are marked and do not show real people.
