In Reply to: Swedish Ancestors posted by James Frame on October 01, 1997 at 00:48:39: : I have great-grandparents, named Peter Gustav Peterson and Anna Christina Ericson (or dotter). They came to the USA around 1880. The husband was from the village or parish of Guar Brack, and his wife was from a place called Lannin. I have not been able to locate these places. They are not on any maps I have looked at. Does anyone know where I can locate them? Dear Mr Frame: I am a Swede. The names you mention do not sound Swedish. Is there any way you can check these names? I cannot think of any Swedish word or place name with the combination ua, like in Guar. The Embassy, where i work, has a booklet, Tracing your Swedish Ancestry, which might be useful to you. The Embassy tel no is 202 467 2600. Eva Hess
