Albin Faust (Bror Gustaf Albin)

[Karen Kelsey]

I have been searching for ALBIN FAUST in U.S. records, hoping to find enough information so that I could post a query on this site.  However, I am having a lot of trouble.  I found his addresses in Chicago over a period of years, but not much more.  I drove to the No East Illinois area archives to search for his naturalization documents, and I was able to find the file card.  I have not yet found the actual document, but I will continue to search.  Any ideas of what I can do to find his background in Sweden?  This is what the citizenship entry on microfiche says:
Name:   FAUST FAST),   Albin (Bror Gustaf Albin)
Filed:  U.S. District Court
Country of birth:   Sweden
Birth date:   August 8, 1904
Date and port of arrival in the U.S.:
      Nov. 4, 1927  New York, NY
Date of naturalization:  May 5, 1943
 
    I will take a trip into Chicago to see if I can find a copy of this naturalization at the U.S. federal building.  Does the above information offer enough to search any of the databases in Sweden?

Thanks so much!  I could not find more information about him, and I was worried that I did not have enough for any type of search.

Thank you!  I am very grateful for all of the help I have received on this site, and I am attempting to repay the site by looking up U.S. census records for those who query the site.  You  have helped me so much!
