[Dave Johnson]

I am looking for Karl Julius Leander Peterson. He came from Marsh Åkra parish, lived in Brogården in Älvsborgs County. He was born in 1865 on 21 August. His fathers name was Anders Petersson and his mother was named Anna Stina Andersdotter. I would like to know more information as possible about him please, that when he came to the U.S. and on the ship, plus his grandparents name if possible. Thank you.

Hi Dave!
 
I have been looking for your Karl Julius born in 1865, in the Swedish household-books and I found that your Karl Julius was leaving Sweden with his parents and some siblings in March 1881.
 
I don't know if you know about the siblings already but here they are:
 
* Emil born in 1867
* Eric Reinhold born in 1869
* Elin Anna Emerentia born in 1871
* Jenny Wilhelmina born in 1874
* Per Johan Wilgot born in 1878
* Johan Linus born in 1880
 
Best regards from Marie

I forgot to tell you that I found Anders Petersson's parents. (Karl Julius' grandparents.)
 
They were Peter Bengtsson born the 27th of Nov in 1808 in Kärråkra and mother was Kajsa Petersdotter born the 24th of Mar in 1812 in Alboga.
