It's been awhile since I've posted anything about the progress of my genealogy work. The last year I've been working on a book about my medieval Swedish ancestors. It will have images of over 60 letters from the 1400s and 1300s. Here is a letter that my 14th great-grandfather Knut Arvidsson wrote in 1438. Hopefully this book will be finished by the end of the year.
The book I wrote about several of the places associated in Sweden that are associated with the High family's ancestors is now online. It covers 14 parishes, 14 churches, and 62 farms.
You can now read the 8th volume in my series of books on the High family's Swedish ancestors, which covers 3 generations of ancestors who lived in the 16th century.

I just uploaded the sixth and seventh chapters of my book to my website!
If you’re interested in 17th century Swedish history, you will enjoy reading these chapters, which give a detailed look at Sweden during this period, and contain many fascinating records. Hopefully, these chapters will also be helpful for people who are researching Swedish ancestors from this century.
