I know you have all had time to read the e-mail and info from Sweden, so what is your feelings on this situation? We e-mailed Anders, and he replied. Very short. Hope we didn't piss him off.
We were playing around with the info and we constructed a family tree of sorts. A page for the American side of Per (great grandfather) and one for the Swedish side. It took some deciphering, but it was interesting to see how it all played out. And Yes, Birgitta seems to be Shorty's and Paul's cousin. I believe she is Ander's mother. Per started a whole new family when he returned to Sweden. He was 58 years old when Folke (last son) was born. Sending another e-mail to Anders to give him some info, and ask if he knows the ship Per came over on. The Ellis Island info can be daunting to look thru, but we found some names and dates that might match with some spelling changes.
More later.

Ander is probably envisioning a Berglund invasion in the near future. USA to Sweden or the other way, which ever works. I would be happy with a clear family tree and PICTURES. That would be fun.
I wonder if Charlie Berglund kept in contact with his father, would Vivian or Paul know? R
Made arrangements to see Paul and Wanda on Tuesday, so we will ask them.
