My wife's grandfather, Charles Louis Johnson, was born Falkoping, Sweden, but I have never been able to find out anything about his birth, etc. He came to US about 1893 and stayed. He left brothers and sisters there, but their names were lost after he died. People destroyed his old letters, etc. Regards, JIM
