My great great grandfather Johan Alfred Olsson, born 03/12/1854 in Isgärde (Glömminge, Öland) arrived as emigrant in Antwerp (Belgium) on 09/08/1881. His parents were Olaus Palm Lundberg (born 11/03/1827) and Anna Maria Olsdotter (born 22/02/1823). My purpose is to make a family album with tree, the emigration story, illustrated with old maps (of Öland), pictures, documents,... I also discovered on the forum that his father, Olaus Palm Lundberg, was a båtsman on the Eugenié fregat trip around the world of 1851-1853.
I'd like to find out more about his family and ancestors, the place he lived, the reason why he emigrated and why to Antwerp, which boat he took to Belgium and the route, about the Eugenié fregatten, ... This summer I plan to be a few days on Öland. Where should I go to to complete the information ? Many thanks in advance for any little information.
