Ships carrying Swedish Immigrants (1851-1860)

Notes
  1. This is not a complete list - it is only a beginning effort to create a comprehensive listing of all vessels that brought Swedish immigrants to the United States during this period. Please add comments about ships that have been omitted on this list or note any errors found. 
  2. Entries in bold type include Swedish immigrants who settled in Chautauqua and Warren counties.
  3. Listings for Mormon immigrants from the Scandinavian Mission are from the website by B. Nelson and are based on the work of Conway B. Sonne, Saints on the Seas, 1983, p 148-154.  (http://user.xmission.com/~nelsonb/ship_list.htm : accessed 2014.10.01)
  4. The ITSG (Immigrant Ships Transcribers Guild) website is www.immigrantships.net
  5. I have used the spelling barque to distinguish the word for its nautical reference to a vessel's rigging.  The Swedish term is bark  which is also a variant spelling used in American English. 
  6. Abbreviations used for ports:  Boston (BOS), Gävle (GEF), Göteborg (GöT), Hamburg (HAM), Karlshamn (KRL), LPL (Liverpool), New Orleans (NO), New York (NY), Philadelphia (PHL),  Rotterdam (ROT), Stockholm (STK).
