Posted on: Pierce Co. Wi Queries Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/genbbs.cgi/USA/Wi/Pierce/57 Surname: Almquist, Sorenson, Johnson, Wennerberg ------------------------- Gustaf O. Almquist homesteaded in Pierce County Wisconsin. He came from Sweden on the Nymphen in 1871 with his wife, Helene Regine Sorenson. Already settled in Pierce county were Helene's sisters, Mrs Martha Wennerberg and Mrs Christiana Johnson. Christiana was the wife of Per Johnson. If anyone has any information on this family I would appreciate hearing from you. I have a lot of information on some of the family in this country and have traced Per Johnson and Gustaf O. Almquist back to early 1700s in Sweden. Also have traced Helene and her sisters back to the early 1700s in Norway. Thanks for any assistance.
