I am so sorry to hear of your dad's passing. I am the keeper of the Buffalo Edholm family tree. Your dad, Paul, was my first cousin. His dad and my dad were brothers. Jonas (John) and Brita (Mathilda) left Sweden in 1891 and settled in Johnsonburg, PA. They had 3 boys. Carl, the oldest-born 1888, was our grandfather. He married Minnie Geneva Swanson about 1910 in Buffalo, NY. They went between Buffalo and PA. They had several children. Carlton (my dad), Marie, Burdette, Paul, Hazel, and two more whose names escape me. Hazel and the other 2, died as children. My dad was a twin, but his twin passed away in infancy.

The only Edholm's to have children were Carlton (there are 9 of us, all still in Buffalo), Marie--she had 3 sets of twins, 5 living, 3 in Buffalo area, 1 FL and 1 in the state of Washington, and Paul--your family.

Growing up the families were very close.

Please contact me for any info you would like.
