Historical NoteReturn to Top

Cooperative project to produce microfilm of early Swedish American church records.

The project partner was the Emigrant Institute in Sweden. Records of primarily Lutheran churches in Washington, Oregon, and British Columbia, plus some Baptist and Covenant churches were microfilmed. 1930 was used as the usual cut-off date for filming the records, but in some cases this was extended when a particular record series continued beyond 1930.
