Genealogy conglomerate service Ancestry.com has acquired Swedish genealogy website Genline.se for $6.7 million in cash.  Several months ago, Ancestry competitor MyHeritage.com bought Germany’s OSN Group for an undisclosed amount.  Genline will be integrated into Ancestry.com’s line of global web properties. Genline has about 17,000 paid subscribers with access to 26 million pages of digitized Swedish church records.  These church records go back over 400 years ago to the 16th century.
