Hello!
I have no information other than a possible date of birth etc. on my John (Johan) Backlund which is 9 Apr 1866 and what I can gather from his childrens' records, etc. How sure are you about your John's birth date?I would be tickled if I could find a connection with your family...John's information has been difficult to locate.John was born in Tyndero (if I am to believe the records) and came to the US around 1911 (when my grandfather, age 16 came~possible John came prior to this).He married Karen (Katarina) Lundquist and had 8 children, the last of which was born in America.Karen had one child, Axel, when she married Johan.Would love to hear more from you!Thank you!PLBG
