Yes, that may have helped! But, you obviously have kept your skills current. That is really wonderful.
My grandfather was August Wilhelm Carlsson, b. 9 July 1877 in Marsjö Norrgård, Annerstad parish. His father was Carl Johan Pehrsson, b. 20 December 1837 in Perstorp, Annerstad parish. His mother was Johanna Larsdotter, b. 13 December 1836 in Össjöa, Torpa parrish.
There were 6 children including my grandfather:
Carolina Carlsdotter, b. 1 March 1864 in Perstorp, Annerstad Lars Peter, b. 22 Jan 1867 in Marsjo Norrgard, Annerstad Johan Alfred, b. 5 Jan 1872 in Marsjo Norrgard, Annerstad Salomon Wilhelm, b. 26 May 1875, in Marsjo Norrgard, Annerstad, died same year of whooping cough August Wilhelm - my grandfather Alma Charlotta, b. 21 April 1880, Marsjo Norrgard, Annerstad
The entire family emigrated to the US in 3 separate groups over a period of about 5 years beginning in about 1884 - my grandfather came with his parents and younger sister, Alma, in 1888 in the last group. They came to Minnesota to farm. My g grandmother's sister and brother-in-law had come earlier and sent tickets back to Sweden for them to come. When the older boys repaid the cost of their tickets, the next group came, etc.
I find it all very interesting. It sounds like you also have Annerstad connections. Do you still have connections there?
