Vasa Order of America Archives

Located in Bishop Hill, Illinois. The main purpose is to preserve the records of the Vasa Order of America and its members. We have set up a family register where all Vasa members and their families will be chronicled. The register is an important phase of our archival activities by assisting researchers find their ancestors. We aim at making the contents of the building interesting to all visitors. Therefore we have accepted a number of artifacts which relate to Swedish and Scandinavian immigrant history. These items provide visual and physical connections to past generations.
