I am looking for Andrew Ekdahl info. Born 1857/58 in Sweden. Came to USA in 1890+/-, with wife and 4 sons, Axel Alexander, Albins, maybe Alfred? not sure of all 4 sons names. I'm looking for any info you might have. Especially town in Sweden where he was born. My 85 yr. old dad wants to visit (while he can still travel). Any suggestions for researching will be appreciated.

Jack,
I don't know if our Eckdahl's are related but my Great Gandmother was Clara Josephine Eckdahl. I know she had at least one brother Elmer C. Eckdahl. My GGM was married in Chicago and I know that my Grandmother during WWI wrote to her cousins in the service. I still have the letters she received from them and some pictures. Their names were Andrew W. Eckdahl, Charles ? Eckdahl, a brother Al ( in one of Andrew's letters). And a cousin Dave Carson.is a cousin that is tied into the Eckdahl's. If any of this makes sense to you Dad, let me know I would be happy to give you a lending hand at finding out more.
