Could someone look at emigration records and see if Eric W.Wallander (or Wallender), born around 1888, can be found?  He emigrated from a farm on Öland Island in the early 20th century.  His daughter is 80 years old, and she wants to learn about her father's life in Sweden.  The 1920 census says that Eric emigrated in 1914, but his daughter said that he came here before that, then returned twice to Sweden.  On one of his return trips he joined the Swedish military, but decided to return to the U.S. after serving his duty.  He became a machinist, and he took an advanced course while on one of his trips to Sweden.  If this is not enough information, I will call my old friend and see what else she knows about her father.  Thanks for whatever information you can give this lady!

Thanks!  Is there any way to see when he emigrated?  The Ellis Island database only lists his trip in 1913, but the manifest says that he had been in the U.S. twice before that.  I think it says 1905 and 1908, and he had been in Chicago.  The 1913 entry says that his destination was New York.
  Thanks in advance!

Thanks!  That explains why Eric Wallander left the U.S. and went to Mexico to find work, before he settled down and got married.  He worked in Mexico for awhile, then came back to the U.S. and married one of my ancestors.  I will try to find these people in the U.S. census and see if I can discover where his other family members ended up.  This information has been very helpful.
