	Hello, I have some Swedish ancestry that I would like to trace. My great-great grandparents emigrated to Australia from Sweden and lived in the Jindera District (near Albury, NSW). I have their names, I do not know how to access Swedish records. Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks Carli

	Carli, have you tried a google search? There are several sites but this looks promising: http://genealogy.about.com/od/sweden/Sweden_Genealogy_Sverige_Genealogi.htm It's quite a complcated address! If you google the heading you will find it: Swedish Genealogy - Researching Swedish Ancestors - Sverige Genealogi Jan

	Thanks Jan. I did Google but I lost patience with all of the useless websites it sent me to!
