I understand that I've provided a lot for you to look at. Just be aware I posted quite a few messages. Refresh the page to make sure you've found them all.
It is best to ask questions on one of these boards. The best one by far is Anbytarforum, which is mostly in Swedish because it is the board for the Federation of Swedish Genealogical Society. Some of the best genealogists in Sweden use that board and they are very helpful to those of us who aren't Swedish except through ancestry. There is a section called "Discussions in English" and there are English language instructions (The INSTRUCTIONS link is for us.) so that we know what to do to use a site with most instructions and links in Swedish.

Other good and very active boards with 'some' Swedes available to help are:

http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.scan-balt.sweden.general/mb.ashxhttp://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.scan-balt.sweden.general/mb.ashx
When I have a difficult question, my first choice of boards is Anbytarforum.
I don't remember if I've mentioned the Swenson Swedish Immigration Research Center. They have a website but their extensive collection of records is not online.
