I am looking for info on my GGGrandfather. Here is what I have:
My grandfather told me that his grandfather was born around 1857 in Sweden, and died in
Baton Rouge, LA. I have census records for him leading up to 1920, but in 1930 their
youngest children are living with siblings/relatives. I did find a death record for a
Charles Alford (sp?) Carlson in E. Baton Rouge, date 6 Dec 1927. Not entirely sure if I
have the right person, so if anyone can confirm or debunk that one for me I would
appreciate it.
He married Mary J White in 1891 Iowa. She was born ~1873 in Iowa. I believe she is the
daughter of David and Amanda (Reynolds) WHITE. I found a death record that I believe is
for her. If so, she died in E Baton Rouge parish 5 OCt 1928.
They had many children. All years are approximate based on Iowa census records. All of
their children were born in IOWA
Mable - 1892
Bessie - 1894
Daisy - 1895
Harry - 1900
Kenneth - 1902
Charles Raymond - 1905
Louise -
Miles - 1909
Irene - 1911
Gale - 1912
Nellie (may have also gone by name Glendoris) - 1914
George - 1915
Mildred - 1917
Can anyone shed light on who the parents of Charles A Carlson are? I think he immigrated
in 1871. He also had a brother names John.
