Could someone look at emigration records and see if Eric W.Wallander (or Wallender), born around 1888, can be found? He emigrated from a farm on Öland Island in the early 20th century. His daughter is 80 years old, and she wants to learn about her father's life in Sweden. The 1920 census says that Eric emigrated in 1914, but his daughter said that he came here before that, then returned twice to Sweden. On one of his return trips he joined the Swedish military, but decided to return to the U.S. after serving his duty. He became a machinist, and he took an advanced course while on one of his trips to Sweden. If this is not enough information, I will call my old friend and see what else she knows about her father. Thanks for whatever information you can give this lady!
