Did Germans settle near Varberg or Falkenberg?

[Glen Johnson]

Is there anyone from the Varberg-Falkenberg area who can trace their ancestry to Germany?  I'm very interested in talking to descendants of Germans who settled in the Varberg-Falkenberg area. There is a possibility that we are related.

I do not know, if it is a help for you, but as I am looking for soldier-ancestors in the time 1650 to 1760, I was told, that Varberg was a place, where parts of the german regiments of the swedish army were dispoded, for instance parts of the life-regiment of the swedish queen from 1750 to 1757.
