I am doing some research on m,y g.g.g. grandfather Nils Osterberg who was born in Sept 1816. Not sure where he was born but family sources say that he and his wife Carolina were from the kagerod parish in Helsingborg Municipality. We believe his wife last name was Lindau.
Nils and Carolina had atleast 4 children:
Alfred G. (my great, great grandfather)
Johanna
Johan
Joel
I would love to find out more information on this family. Perhaps a marriage record for Nils and Carolina. I have been told that Nils died in Hultahus in January 1879. I have no other information on wife Carolina.
Any direction or help on this famuily would be most appreciated.
