Looking for early Sweden record
In riksarkivet under house records for Värmland County records star 1733. Are records available anywhere for this area for later 1600s to early 1700s? Thanks much. Deniese Drake

If your question refers to the "husförhörslängder", these were introduced by the church law (kyrkolag) of 1686 and the ordinance (konventikelplakatet) of 1726 respectively, .
The earliest available records depend on the parish. In Värmland län, for example, the records for Eda parish begin in 1696 ( ), but for most parishes the records begin in the 1700s. Birth/baptism records (Födelse- och dopböcker) mostly start earlier, in the late 1600s.

Ulrich, I am specifically looking for records in lungsund. Looking for birth records of siblind born before 1725 and a marriage record about 1705. Deniese

Yes, Lungsund husförhörslängder begin först in 1733. However, Födelse- och dopböcker, which for these early years include also marriage and death records start already in 1687:
