Message Board Post:
Three Carlson brothers came to US in 1905-1906 time frame from Timrå Västernorrland Län.
They were likely born in Savar, but their father, Karl Jonas Karlsson, moved around alot.
These brothers were Karl Gustaf, b. 24 Feb 1886, Erik Oskar, b 12 May 1887, and Magnus, b.
May 15 1889. Specified destination of two of the 3 was Joliet, IL. They likely had family
there since their aunts and uncles immigrated to America starting in the 1880's, with
at least some of them going to Joliet. Nothing is know of them after their arrival in
America. Am looking for info on any and all of this family. I have information on their
aunts and uncles, and their children.... These aunts and uncles, unlike their father, used
the grandfathers name, Ekstrom when they immigrated, and when they arrived in the US
