I am looking for any information on the name Laudon. My grandfather was Carl August Laudon, he was a lighthouse keeper on Storkläppen and later on Ven. He was born May 4, 1872, died Feb. 5, 1929. His grandfather was Anders Laudon, a soldier with Kungliga Andra livgrenadjärregementet och Västanstångs kompani, rotenummer 50, born Oct 9, 1801 and died March 23, 1856. His great grandfather was Carl Modig. Does anyone know of any other Laudon's? and any info on the origin of the name? Supposedly some of our ancestors came to Sweden from Scotland, but I suspect a French origin somewhere.
