You are so quickly, there something: Johan Björklund had a son Sanford (Johannes Sanfrid) b. 1907 Maxmo Finland.  Mickel had at least 3 sons Albin 1908, Harold 1910, Eskil 1913, and daughter Helen 1922?.  Karl had two sons Helge 1913 and Harry 1915 they were unmarried and Ruth 1916 died last December. I did not find Karl and Elisabeth’s date of married but they might married before they went to Arizona were sons were born and Ruth was born in Worcester, Massachusetts. Karl died 28.09.1963 in Preston, New London, Connecticut. Elisabeth died in 1953 in Preston.

Hi,

thanks to Henrik, Lisa's family is now clear too.

Johan Björklund travelled to USA again in 1916 with his family. He had his wife Anna Brita with him, and two children: Johannes Sanfrid 8 years, and Helga Ragnhild 3 years. Helga must have born abt. 1913. Then, in 1920 US Census, Johan and his family lived in Worcester. They had three children: Johannes Sanfrid, Helga Ragnhild and Robert W (perhaps William?). Robert might have been born between 1916 and 1920.

It is possible to get records of marriage and childrens birth certificates from the Worcester Office of City Clerk. For example I have got birth certificates of two children (my mother's cousins) and two records of marriage (my grandmother's sister and brother). They all lived in Worcester between 1909 and 1940. And I'd like to mention that my grandmother's brother lived his family in address 106 Rodney Street! It is not so far from the Björklunds living in 11 and 12 Rodney Street.

Best wishes from
Maria
