Wilhelm is the Swedish variant of William and I see around 50 Wil* Nils* emigrating 1863-1869. But we need more information. When was he born? Any names of parents or siblings? Martin

MartinThanks so much for the information on Anders Larsson and family. We thought they immigrated to Minnesota. Arizona works! As to William Nelson...he was born 4 Dec 1847 and emmigrated in 1865 or so it says on his 1880 census in Pocatello, Idaho. He was an engineer on the Shortline RR and left no information other than that. He owned a home and was a member of the Brotherhood of RR Engineers.But all that we have is those two dates. His wife came from Gnarp, Gavleborg, Sweden but have looked in vain for a link. They were first together in Evanston, Wyoming where a child was born. William and Peter and Eva are their children. I looked through all of the outflyytings (sp) for the year of 1865-66 for the counties in Sweden.What would you do?Jenny in Idaho > Date: Thu, 27 Dec 2012 22:26:21 +0100 > From: martin48@telia.com > To: sweden@rootsweb.com > Subject: Re: [SWEDEN] Emigration lookup > > Wilhelm is the Swedish variant of William and I see around 50 Wil* Nils* > emigrating 1863-1869.

It seems impossible to corroborate any findings if you don't have any other information about connections to Sweden. Have you tried the Swenson Center? http://www.augustana.edu/x13856.xml This one went to Denmark (first?): Post 486607 Nilsson, Wilhelm Yngling (unmarried man) b. 4/6/1847 in Malmö, Malmöhus län (Skåne) Emigrated 11/17/1865 from Ellenbogen 17, Malmö Karoli, Malmöhus län (Skåne) to Köbenhavn amt, Danmark Source: Household Examination Roll, p. 297 Emibas migration file ID: Malmö Karoli M 1865 090 Un-normalized versions: Place of destination: Köpenhamn Country of destination: Danmark Martin
