Did you get my message before about the Lindquist families from Maynard, MA? If you did not get my message, there were only two Lindquist families in Maynard when I was growing up. Mine and another one. I believe they live on Espie Ave. I can contact them if you would like and see if they know any of these people?

Thanks for all your help

Anna had a son out wedlock, Karl Erik Hjalmar Lindqvist, we know that he came to USA in 1911, he was born 1892 in Sweden. Anna and her sisters had a boardinghouse in Maynard. The youngest daughter of Anna and Olof, Julia Clark, she has two children, Richard (wife Mary) he is a retired policeman they still live in Maynard as far as I know.

Hej,

Unfortunately the Lindquist family I was thinking of are of Finish decent. The only thing that I could find that seemed to look like it may be of significance is a Carl Lundquist (Lindquist) that appeared in Manchester, New Hampshire (about an hour north of Maynard, Mass) in 1920 born 1892 Sweden immigrated in 1911 living with and Elan Lindquist as a boarder with a family named Priece or Prince it seems a dead end after that. I looked on footnote for naturalzation papers but couldn't find any matches either. Sorry I was hoping I would be able to help more. Although it would be a nice experience for you to visit your relatives in Maynard the town itself is not as impressive as it once was but the past ten years have been good to it. I grew up with several Clark families in Maynard and even have some cousins with the name. The world gets smaller every year.

I think our families are connected. My great grandmother had an illegitimate son with Carl Hjalmar Lindquist in 1866. My great grandmother was Charlotta Elizabeth Andersdotter (1847-1880). Paul Lindquist was born in Gestad, Sweden, and his 3 children: Ivar, Ragnild & Annie were born in Vanersnas (ca 1896-1902). I know that Ivar and Annie emmigrated in 1923 to Massachusettes. Ivar Lindquist had two children, Ralph & Mildred, born in N. Attleborough, MA, he died in 1968. All I know about Annie is that she died after 1987. The only information I have on Paul's father Carl Hjalmar Lindquist is that his father was Anders Peter Lindquist b 1 Apr 1804 Ferbo, Sweden and mother was Pauline Rydberg b 29 Aug 1815 Lean, Sweden.

Contact me if you think we can make the connection.
