In Reply to: How to find my wifes two halfsisters? posted by Carsten Palmer Schale on September 30, 1997 at 11:06:13: : My wife is trying to trace her lost sisters, wo left for America around 1945-50. Birthname: Wirstrom. First names: Britt-Marie or Ann-Sofi and Anita or Elisabeth. Fathers name: Herman Nilsson (later on Krogestad). Herman Nilsson-Krogestad was born in Stockholm 1908, and died in Stockholm 1945. He had at least four children - the two missing sisters (with their mother Wirstrom), a son (Ole Krogestad) and my wife (adopted Palmer). Can anyone give us a clue`or suggestion about how to continue? : Sincerely yours : Carsten Palmer Schale Dear Mr Schale: This is a long shot, but maybe you can still locate the brother, Ole Krogestad, who (or his children) may have some knowledge of the sisters whereabouts. The Embassy has a booklet, Tracing your Swedish ancestry, which might be useful to you. The Embassy tel no is 202 467 2600.
