   Description

   ArkivDigital is privately owned online repository of Swedish church records, taxation records, court records and other material of interest for family history research. Photos in color and high resolution improves readability, which is a great aid when handwriting is difficult and pages may be damaged.<ref>[[Wikipedia:sv:Arkiv_Digital]]</ref>

   ArkivDigital has a number of useful person-related indexes:

   • an index of household records 1800-1947
   • indexes of births, marriage and death (coverage varies, with full coverage for some parishes, full coverage for births 1750-1840, almost full coverage for marriages 1750-1840 and full coverage for deaths 1750-1799.
   • a number of other indexes, for example one for estate inventories

   The service is provided on a subscription basis with subscription periods of varying lengths.<ref>[http://www.arkivdigital.net/ ArkivDigital in English]</ref><ref>[http://www.arkivdigital.se/ ArkivDigital in Swedish]</ref>

   Most of the same records may be found for free at Riksarkivet, where they are usually in B&W. Finding things is usually easier with ArkivDigital, but Riksarkivet has advantages in some areas.

   Citing ArkivDigital

   ArkivDigital is a repository for sources. It is not enough to cite just the repository as a source citation in WikiTree (reference). A proper citation for a church record must also include the parish, the volume and a page number (when the volume is paginated). The ArkivDigital site/app offers citations in a number of different formats.

   For formatting ArkivDigital references to church records we recommend App for ArkivDigital references by Lundholm-24 , which is based on one of the AD citation formats, including links.
