.......>> Subject: Swedish Emigrant References

>> Several days ago, I responded to a request for references on Swedish
>> emigrants.  My first response was a simple Melvyl search command, and
>> the fact that I had received 18 references which I would be glad to
>> e-mail to anyone interested.  Due to the responses, I expanded my
>> search, and generated two new lists, one short, and somewhat more
>> personal, and the other 179 entries long.

>> I am enclosing both, for your information.

>> While all my ancestors were Swedish emigrants, I never knew any of the
>> first generation, and only one of the many second generation.
>> Therefore, I desire to learn more about their thoughts, feelings,
>> aspirations and in general, their life and times.  I have many questions
>> but few answers, so I have sought answers through written material.  All
>> of my ancestors immigrated between the end of the Civil War, and the
>> close of the nineteenth century.....
