I cannot tell from your post whether or not you realize that Swedes used patronymic naming customs (and not a fixed surname) in the past.
Just in case, this is a link to an article by Ingela Martenius. The article is very interesting and very informative. It is essential that you understand Swedish naming customs or you will end up researching the wrong lines.
