Before I write out everything I have could you please confirm that you are "still out there" at a reachable email address. I am a descendant of this family-the great grandaughter of Sophie, who was born in the parish of Dingtuna, in Westmanland Province and was the daughter of Andrews G. Olsson. I have done extensive research on this family and have found the actual birth records on nearly all of the family in Sweden, including Ander's mother "Katrina Enrot"-which by the way was not her birth name, but was only one of several different names that she called herself throughout her life. ( I think I've found about 10 of those names -so far). It was very interesting to note that as one follows her around Sweden, throughout the course of her life (through the Swedish Parish Household records) how she modified her name. But, yes, this was always the same woman, as is proven by the matching birth and marriage dates, as well as each of the children's names and their birth dates. I would very much like to hear from you, and anyone else related to this line. I am sure I have nearly all the descendents that you could possibly want-from all 9 children of Anders and Johanna. I also have several pictures of Anders and Johanna and their children. By the way did you know that portraits of Johanna and Anders hang in the New Sweden Historical Museum? Thank you in advance for getting back to me.
