Titel: Prefixes to Surnames eg Berg becomes Ahlberg
Skrivet av: Scott Wagner skrivet 2016-08-19, 01:05
G'day from Australia, My 2nd great-grandfather Anders Ahlberg, a blacksmith from Sköna who migrated to Australia in the 1860's, had the patronymic Berg and adopted the prefix Ahl- at some point, perhaps after finishing his apprenticeship? His grandfather was a Bergren, his father a Berg, and a paternal uncle used the surname Löfberg? Can anyone please give me a better understanding of the use of the prefixes, and why they may have changed? Scott
