Surnames: Ekdahl, Eckdahl, Larson, Isben, Johnson
I am looking for information on Torger Larson Ekdahl/Eckdahl.
Born July 23 1858 near Stavanger, Norway. At age 22 (1880) he came to USA locating in Chicago where he lived for 25 years then moved to northern Wisconsin.
I believe he Married a Helena M Johnson and then Mary Peterson.
In his obituary it states:
Survived by two sisters: Mrs. Olaf Isben, Chicago and one living in Norway.

It is believed that upon moving to northern Wisconsin, he changed his name TO Ekdahl/Eckdahl from LARSON due to another Torger Larson getting his mail.

Any information would be a great help.

I am a granddaughter of Torgar Larson Ekdahl. My daughter
and I are trying to construct a family tree. We do know the
names of the eight children that were born between 1892 and
1910. I would be interested in any information that you would
have on the Ekdahl family.

Hello,

I am down the line of Anna Maria Victoria Eckdahl and was hoping that you all could fill in some of the blanks for me about Torger/Larson and all descendants. I am new to Ancestry and am a little addicted. Thanks in advance and I can share anything that I have.

This is breifly what I have on Torger.

Born on July 23 1858 in Stavanger Norway.
Died August 7, 1925 in Little Black Wisconsin

He was married to a Helena and a Mary (I think).
He is buried with Helena in the same cemetary.

They had 9 kids
Anna Marie Victoria

If this looks like the same family, email me directly and I will send you everything I have on this family. If it is the correct family I would like any information that you may have that I may be missing.

By the way, Anna was my grandmother and she married a Rickaby and my mother was a Rickaby.

Thanks
