My GGG grandfather, Johan Sandberg, was born April 11, 1783 in Goteborg. He married, Dec 26, 1807, Carolina Friderica Holmstrom in Varberg. She was born Oct 24, 1783 in Varberg.
Their son, Jacob, born Jan 27 1810 in Varberg, married, Sept 9 1836, Anna Charlotta Stromberg in Boras. She was born Jan 12, 1807 in Boras.
Their son, Knut Fritiof, born March 28, 1839, in Boras, married Nov 2 1864 in Filipstad, Anna Greta Sjogren. She was born Dec 25, 1840 in Farnebo, Varmland. In 1880, Knut and Anna and 7 of their 9 children emigrated to the United States and settled in Black River, Polk Center Twp, Minnesota. Knut was my great grandfather.
Knut's sister, Hulda Berhardina, married Johan Petter Larsson and had three children, Emma Dorothea, Axel Teodor, and Svea. Emma and Axel have descendants living in New York, New Jersey and Texas.
If anybody recognizes these names and can contribute additional information, I would greatly appreciate it. I am particularly interested in connecting with cousins, no matter how distant, in Canada, the US, Sweden, or wherever. For more information see my online database at http:`www.my-ged.com/sandberg
