Lois recently brought us an interesting article that appeared in the Star Tribune (Minneapolis) about a new enterprise called MinnesotaSwede. The business is "designed to help people with genealogy research while also coordinating tours of places important to their ancestors."
Magnus Rydholm and Kris Overby have arranged for a group Americans to travel to Scandinavia in May, and an inaugural group of 30 Swedes will visit Minnesota in September. The couple has visited archives in both places to help plan genealogical tours. The idea is to be able to research in either direction and hopefully meet long lost cousins.

Thanks to Lois for sharing this information!
