: Hi, I'm a college student in Sweden and I am writing a minor thesis work on Swedish Emigrants. If You are of Swedish descent or have knowledge of Swedish emigration to the US during the first half of this century, I would be very glad to get in touch with you! My work will be a grammatical one but any info will do!

: Hope to hear from You,

Dear Mattias,

Well, the story seems to be the same for me as it does the others who responded to your question. My great grandfather also came over to America at the turn of the century from Broby, Sweden. He left for economic reasons and came to live in the Wisconsin/Illinois regions of the U.S to become a logger, small boat builder and finally a construction foreman. As the third generation of Edwinson to be born in this country, I am planning on returning to vistit the country of my forefathers and wish to find out any information that might help me to research my family history in Sweden.

Sincerely,

Casey Edwinson.
