Aldrin in Massachusetts

[Roald Sundberg]

In 1900-04-18, Alfred Aldrin (born: 1869-12-16) and his wife Helena Ullström/Aldrin (born: 1872-10-03) emigrated from Sweden to Worcester, Massachusetts.
They had the following children:  
Alf Henrik (Henry) Aldrin (born: 1897-12-01), Helfrid Elisabet Aldrin (born: 1899-10-14), Hanna C. Aldrin (born: 1904), Arne G. Aldrin (born: 1906-05-31), Helen A. Aldrin (born: 1913) and Birger A. Aldrin (1917).
The family lived at 8 Oswald St, Worcester, Mass. in 1918 and they still lived there in 1930. Alf Henrik (Henry) Aldrin lived in Worcester in 1972 and Arne G Aldrin lived in Worcester in 1991.
 
I am related to Helena Ullström/Aldrin and I have done genealogical research on her lines back to the end of 1500. I also have pictures from 1890 of her father and his brothers; smiths from Värmland, Sweden.
It would be nice to get in contact with relatives to Alfred and Helena in USA and share information and family trees to complete the hole family picture for us all.

Hej Roald!
På Ancestry såg jag en hel del familje-träd med namnet Aldrin. Men kanske känner du till dem. Jag tror en del var svenska, men också något amerikanskt vad jag kunde se (kollade lite snabbt).

Hej Maggan!
 
Jo, jag har sett det, men då måste man bli medlem och betala en massa för att komma åt mailadresserna, tyvärr.
 
Hälsn

Roald, det finns en svensk släktforskarförening i Worcester, och om du googlar på Swedish Ancestry Research Association så hittar du nog deras hemsida. De har ett månatligt Newsletter, som tar emot efterlysningar i mån av plats.
