Guidance in your mystery
No need to guess,
I’ve seen this before.
Swedish genealogy services
My services are built on where I can help you best: knowing what Swedish records say, what they don’t say, and where to find what’s missing.
I’ve created tightly scoped services around the problems that come up when you’re researching in Sweden. Each one tells you exactly what I need from you and what you can expect in return.
Fewer rabbit holes, more progress
More of Swedish genealogy can be done by yourself, from anywhere in the world. But access is not understanding. When tracing your family in a new country, it’s easy to go down the wrong rabbit hole or not notice what leads you actually have.
Let’s fix that.
Bring me your translation to verify, or bring me the point that made you pause.

I’m Annika Höstmad, professional genealogist based in Gothenburg, Sweden
My office is on the very street where emigrants awaited departure. I’ve spent years guiding their descendants around the world to connect with their Swedish roots.
For a long time, that meant writing detailed reports, regularly at 80 pages for one person. Everything that went into them painted a vivid picture of the subjects and was vital to fulfilling both Swedish and international standards.
But I’ve learned that my expertise is most useful for solving problems: understanding the old Swedish society, finding clues in original sources, and seeing where they lead.
