I have been reasearching the Linander Family tree for about 18 years. I have information that dates back to 1827 and would be willing to share information. The beginning Linander name that I have is Carl Alfred, Maria, Emma, and Amanda. The interesting thing about this name is that it was not origionaly Linander, it was Peterson or Pederson. The name was changed upon arrival to the United States. Magnus Peterson was the name of Carl Alfred Linanders father. If you would like to share information, please contact me.
