Clemensson & Andersson: Authors

Per Clemensson and Kjell Andersson have been authors for over 20 years known for writing on the subject of genealogy. They have written the best selling ‘Släktforska Steg för Steg’ and have also written ‘Släktforska vidare.’ Both of these books can be purchased from Genline.

Genline and Per Clemensson and Kjell Andersson came to an agreement during the winter 2002/2003 regarding the production of a book for the international and primarily North American market. In the USA alone there are 12 million people with Swedish ancestry who are to a large extent doing family research.

In order to accomplish this work - which currently has the working title “Find Your Swedish Roots – a step by step guidance” - and to ensure effective distribution and sales Genline has an agreement with the American publishing house MyFamily Inc.

The books planning is to explain in easy terms for North Americans how they can carry out their genealogical research “home to Sweden.” The book also utilizes modern research methods such as Genline.

The Federation of Swedish Genealogical Societies

Genline's most important collaborative agreement was signed in January 2002 with The Federation of Swedish Genealogical Societies (SSf) which is an umbrella organization for genealogical societies in Sweden.

Currently there are approximately 145 societies tied to the SSf and the number of members in each society can range from 30 to 18000 people. The total membership is approximately 55 000 but many individuals are members of multiple societies so perhaps 30 000 unique individuals have ties with the SSf.

SSf 's largest member organization is DIS (Datorstöd I Släktforskningen - Computer Genealogy Society of Sweden) which has 18 000 members and a large amount of member ties to SSf.

DIS Sweden

DIS Sweden is the world’s first and oldest organization for computer help with genealogy. It was founded in 1983 and has its head office in Gamla Linköping.

DIS has developed software called DISGEN which is used for building family trees. Genlines ID# (GID#) can be entered into DISGEN functioning as a link between Genline’s Swedish Church Records archive and DISGEN when creating a family tree.

Genline has close contact with DIS in order to coordinate questions related to future development.

Genline has a collaborative agreement with DIS Norway that began in August 2002 at Släktforskardagarna (Genealogy Days) in Borlänge. DIS Norway’s members are eligible for the same discount on a one year subscription that SSf’s members in Sweden have.

There are many ties between Sweden and Norway and interest in Genline has been growing steadily in the counties located along the Swedish – Norwegian border.

DIS Norway was founded in 1990 and has a membership that is steadily growing.
