Varmskog

[Rayelynn Anderson]

My great grandfather and grandfather were born and raised in Värmskog. My great grandfather was Lars Gustaf Andreasson and my grandfather was Axel George Larson. I would like to find out if I have any family that is still living there or if theyre is anyone who would know anything about my family. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You
Rayelynn Larson Anderson

Hello Ravelynn
Unfortunately your relatives have very common Swedish names. However I found two Lars Gustaf Andreasson in the 1900 census, born in Värmskog. One born 1851 and one 1865. If you can confirm one of them it may be more easy to help you

Rayelynn!
 
Got a hit on FamilySearch and checked it out on Genline (page: 525.67.6700). Your grandfather Axel George was born 27th Feb 1905 in Stavnäs parish in Värmland. According to the birth record his father was Lars Gustaf Andreasson a crofter in Sölje, born 13th April 1863 and his mother Anna Lovisa Johannesdotter born 31st May 1871. No mentioning of birth places unfortunately.

Thank you so much. Is there anyway to find relatives that are still there?
