Genealogists here in Sweden are fairly lucky. Census data used to be the
purview of the clergy, and most of them were pretty meticulous about it,
at least after a certain point (sometime in the 1700s).
I traced my family back to the 1700s along one line, but mostly I
couldn't get past the early 1800s. Through testing with 23andMe I also
managed to get my family back in touch with a branch that had emigrated
to the US back in the early 1900s.
Most of the matches you get on these DNA sites are weak and it's
hopeless to find where the human connection is. I was quite pleased to
encounter an exception to that.
