Hi, this place did an excellent job on my grandfather. If you know about when he immigrated, send a letter to the following address; Swenson Swedish Immigration Research Center Augustana College 639 38th St. Rock Island, IL 61201-2273 or I think by now you can get search request form from the website; http://viking.augustana.edu/admin/swenson They will do a search for $20.00, at least it was that much a couple of years ago. They gave me the name of the ship he sailed from Sweden on, date of birth and the parish and county he was living in at the time of immigration. They even gave me the address of the archives that would have the parish record where he asked permission to immigrate.
