the end of each section). I cannot read Swedish, but the site looks very

Despite the
Swedish establishment of a small colony along the Delaware River in the
mid-seventeenth century, the majority of Swedish immigrants arrived in America
in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Although the first Swedish
immigrants of the nineteenth century were primarily middle class persons in
search of adventure, subsequent immigrants left their country due to a large
population boom and the availability of cheap, fertile farmland in the Midwest,
especially in Minnesota. Since this time, Swedish immigration has slowed to a
trickle.
