I would like any information re: Karl Edberg from Amal Sweden, he being my grandfather.

I have a feeling you are not looking for me but I was shocked when I saw this post. My grandfather was Roy Edberg. Unfortunately he passed away in 1995. His grandson was me...Karl Edberg age 26. I knew I was of Swedish descent but this is just plain weird. Thought I would mention it for posterity.

Karl, Yes this is weird - I knew of a Roy O. (I am Roy A.) who lived in Brookfield, IL many years ago. Could this be the same? My father, Arvid, came to the USA in 1923 from the town of Åmål, Sweden. I have lived in La Grange, IL my entire life. I am 73.

Yes Roy, my grandfather was Roy Oden Edberg. He originally lived in the Chicago area. I don't know if you actually knew him or not. But it's a wierd coincidence for sure.
|
Karl, I never met your gf, I only new of him because many years ago I got some mail from a bank addressed to Roy O., and thought how weird to have someone with a name so close to mine. I'm sure you realize that there are not a lot of Edbergs around. Have a good day.

Do you know what year he as born and was his middle name Sigurd?
