Floberg / Floberg, Eric.

« skrivet: 2022-08-28, 17:19 »

Hej,

I am looking for the origines of a man called Eric Floberg (Flodberg). He married in 1771 in Rotterdam, Netherlands, then moved to Amsterdam, where he had a silk manufacturing business.
He got several children. He also acted as a contact (commisionair) for the naturalist Carl Peter Thunberg from Uppsala.
On at least one occasion Floberg claimed he was a native of 'Floda in Sweden'. At his death registration in 1811 his son said that his father (Eric) had been born 'near Stockholm'.
Does anyone know this Eric Floberg?
Thank you in advance.
Els Vermij, Netherlands

Hej, jag är ny på Anbytarforum.
Vi hittade en Johannes Lukrein från Gotland. Han giftade sig i Amsterdam 1786. Han var skräddare (gesäll). Mögligen var han son till Jacob Hansson Lokren och född i Tingstäde 1761. Vem vet mer om den här familjen?

Allmänt / Johan Sahlsteen

« skrivet: 2020-07-31, 10:36 »

From 1795 Johan Sahlsteen has a company (Sahlsten & Laurin) in Göteborg. Johan Joachim Laurin is his business partner. Laurin was born in Gotland, but is living in Amsterdam, where he runs another firm with his uncle. Laurin lives (temporarily) in Göteborg, but lives in Amsterdam from 1803.
Question: Was Johan Sahlsten also born in Visby? Could he be a son of Anders Sahlsten?
