Sorry about that. Birth 09 Feb 1875 which means he would have been 13 when this "admittance" was recorded. Have also found an admission date to Norsewood School for Oscar F Lundgren on 25 Jan 1886. Parent or guardian just listed as AL. More than likely the same student. The Dannevirke Informal Group of NZSG may be able to assist. There is also reference to Marta/Martha and Anders Mattsson Lundgren in the book Svenskara I Nya Zeeland - a book on Swedish Emigration to NZ by Sten Aminoff. There are several also references to other Langrens in the book.. The NZ Gazette (2 Oct 1876 Page 721 ) also has a naturalisation record of Anders Lundgren This information is available at main centre libraries and at the NZSG Family Research Centre.
