Dear Margie Hopkins,
My Family came from Gustav Peterson, of Mollilla, Smaland, Sweden.All his8 children came to the US after 1894 and settled in Dunn or Stark county, North Dakota.His wife Anna Magneson was buried in Mollilla.So I have been trying all avenues I can find, without putting any expense into it to find any connection to his siblings.
All his children (except the two who had died at birth or as children in Sweden) I knew or know of.They all took the name son of Gustav, "Gustafson" in the US.Gustav died in 1916 buried in Taylor, ND, These are their children:
Charles born Feb 1861, Christine, John 1865, Ida 1866, Josephine 1868, Klaus 1872, Oscar 1874 (My Grandfather), (Anna) Emelia 1881.
