For those of you who have some Nordic in your family tree, there are several Nordic-American newspapers that have been published over the last hundred or so years that may help you find some information and stories about your ancestors.
Listed are only those that are available online. As always, there are more available via microfilm and in original form via libraries and archives. They are separated by Nordic country of origin and then by the state in which they were published.
If there are duplicate titles, they are offered online by more than one collection. It is always a good idea to search both, since the date ranges may be different.
