Hello!
Thank you sooo much for trying to help me!...And you found some interesting things that I didn't know about. I didn't know Car Mauritz died of Tuberculosis. It is quite interesting, because when I did some research in our Swedish archives, I get the impression that he actually ran away to America. I don't think his wife and children really knew where he went, because in the Swedish records it says his whereabouts is Unknown. Later on in 1903 Carls wife Anna Sofia Lindfors (Maidenname) Westberg born 1843 and her daughter Olga Sofia Lindfors also emigrated to America. They stated they were going to Lorain, Ohio to Anna Sofias son John Lindfors. However, I have never been able to track what happend to them. John Lindfors family I have actually found and I am in contact with a son of him. He, however, doesn't know anything about this family. And he in his late years and I don't want to try and pressure him into doing work.
All the other three Lindfors are brothers to Carl Mauritz. Both Per Victor and Erick Magnus later moved to Colorado. And from what i have found Gustav Theodor was quite an artist, an engraver that made beautiful work, stayed in Worcester. Gustaf first arrived in April of 1886 and from what I believe he stayed on in Worcester til his death. He had a wife name Ida. I don't know when he or his wife passed away though. Gustaf was born in Hanebo, Hälsingland in November23d.1864. If you have the time, can you help me try and find some more info on Gustaf as well I know it is a lot to ask, but I am very very interested...and it is so hard doing genealogy with out any contact in the actual place you are looking. If you need some help with your Nordström family I can try and find information for you as well. I have quite good contacts and I also have good access to archives and library's. I will be happy to help you back!
Of course I will also try the things you suggested in your post!
Thank you again, and I try my best in writing English. Most people in Sweden learn to speek English quite good. We start learning in the third grade.
Best regards,
Victoria Lundberg
