From On-Line Ancestry to Sweden: A Family History Journey to Borås |

What happens when an online family tree turns into a real-life journey across the world? On this episode of That Don’t Sound Right, Cecil invites Peter to share the story of his trip to Borås — where distant relatives, first discovered through Ancestry.com and Facebook, welcomed him into a living, breathing branch of his family tree. From sharing a traditional smörgåsbord and sipping Påskmust, to visiting an ancestral farm and walking through a churchyard filled with generations of the Frantzich family, Peter reflects on the surreal experience of seeing history come to life — not on a screen, but in person. Along the way, Peter and Cecil compare old-school genealogy methods with today’s digital tools, dig into the incredible depth of Swedish church records dating back to the 1600s, and explore the emotional side of meeting relatives you’ve only known as names on a chart. Warm, reflective, and quietly fascinating, this episode is a reminder that family history isn’t just something you research — it’s something you can step into. #tdsrpodcast #ThatDontSoundRight #Genealogy #FamilyHistory #Ancestry #TravelStories #Sweden #Borås #Heritage #Storytelling #PodcastLife #Roots #CulturalTravel Connect with us: 🧢 Merchandise 🌐 Website 📧 Email: [email protected] 📷 Instagram: @tdsrpodcast 💬 Threads: @tdsrpodcast ▶️ That Don't Sound Right on YouTube Now on Substack at That Don't Sound Right Podcast!
