“Historical Weights, Measures, and Money of Sweden” presented by Robert Johnson

Many of the typical genealogical documents used in Swedish research (probate records, marriage records, church account books, tax records, property records, and others) often include references to weight, measures, and money. But how do we understand these often culturally laden words like lod, mark, ain, and dozens of others?
This presentation is intended to give you basic knowledge to recognize the meaning of the most common weights, measures, and money terms. We will also review a couple handy tools for conversion from historic to modern units.
