Hi, I am new to this forum.
We wish to make contact with living decendants or relatives of ():
 
(i)Erik Bryntesson B.6 April 1823, Djurskog, Ostervallskog, Varmland Sweden. D.1863. Father was Brynte Pålsson; Mother Marit Andersdotter.
 
Erik Bryntesson married (ii)Ingeborg Persdotter, B.24 Nov.1826,Strommer, Ostervallskog, Varmland, Sweden. Father Per Persson; Mother Anna Andersdoter.
 
Ingeborg Persdotter, my Gr.Gr.Grandmother, remarried (iii)Erik Persson b.23 May 1816,and in 1872 they emigrated to New Zealand with her son Petrus Erickson B.3 May 1856 and his step sister Christina Person b.30 June 1859, and their three half siblings Edvard, Augusta, and Alfred Person. Petrus and Christina were attached to (iv) Anders Eriksson Fager B.19 Sept 1821,and his wife Karin Pehrsdotter b.1 May 1818, under surname Fager while on Board the Hovding for emigration purposes. The Fagers were also from Strommer, Ostervallskog and may have been related.
 
Information by FamilySearch, Ancestry.com, Sten Arminoff and Ostervallskog Parish records.  
 
Except for Erik Bryntesson, the graves of the above that have been located in Hawke's Bay New Zealand are currently being restored.  
 
My wife and I intend to travel to Scandinavia soon and wish to share a little time with living relatives of the above.
We are members of New Zealand Society of Genealogists # 24796 and the Hawke's Branch, Email hawkesbay@gealogy.org.
 
Can anyone assist me please locating living relatives or a Varmland genealogy group or an individual who could make contact, for correspondance purposes, with living relatives?
 
My warmest regards
Barry Erickson.

Barry - I found this site:
http://www.varmlandsrotter.se/
which is a genealogy site in Värmland. You might get some assistance there (at least you are in the same area as where your ancestors came from). Good luck.

Placeringen gjord här, under Allmänt istället för Östervallskog, för att behålla tråden intakt. Ursprungspostaren är informerad om åtgärden.
 
Thread transfered from Discussions in English/General, that no longer is to be used for queries concerning individiuals/families.
It's placed in this sub-topic as to keep the original thread, which is not possible in a sub-topic parish as Östervallskog.

Hello Olle, Carl, Eva, Margaretha, and Judy,
 
You have all been very busy whilst I have been sleeping.
 
Thank you for the messages.  It seems the children of Anna and Per Person have died before child baring age or emigrated.
 
My only choice now is to locate siblings of Anna Andersdotter and Per Persson and work from there to locate living relatives in Sweden.The descendants of Anna and Per of course will be distant cousins twice removed but I don't mind, that is to be expected in the circumstances. Do you have any other suggestions?  
 
Margaretha, I will do as you suggested immediately.
 
And thank you again.
 
Regards Barry...from NZ

The Emibas CD information has this line for each of the emigrants from Gustaf Persson's family.
 
Bilaga/ytterligare information finns. Kontakta Emigrantregistret i Karlstad
 
I think that means there is additional information and you should contact the Emigrantregistret in Karlstad. They have changed their name, if I understand correctly. It is now the Swedish American Center.

http://www.swedenamerica.se/index-en.htm
 
They would probably like information about your family too.  
 
Judy
