Trum or Thrum

[Barbro Trum]

Hi.
Anyone who knows anything about Anders Trum (Thrum) from Gråda in Gagnefs socken, Dalarna. Emigrated in the beginning of the century. Don't know when.We are glad for any information.

There's an Anders I. Tron arriving in NY on 23 May 1892, headed to Chicago.  It doesn't say where he came from other than Sweden. Do you have more info on this person?

Scratch that last post; I found a much better candidate:
 
Anders Trumm, age 38 sailed on the Drottningholm, leaving Göteborg October 28, 1920.
Last permanent address is Gagnef, Sweden, which is also listed as his birthplace. As a contact person in Sweden, he left the name of his brother-in-law, Anders Åkerman.  His destination was Chambers, Nebraska, where he was going to meet a friend, Salem Magnusson Holt Co., Chambers, Nebraska.  He was in possession of $30, was 5'3 with black hair and blue eyes.  He is listed as having a scored neck and left arm.  Perhaps they meant he had scars?  
Hope this helps.

This matches the Anders Trumm found by Sarah in her second try.
