If you've been following this blog over the past few weeks (and why wouldn't you) you will have seen one about researching my family tree on the Johnson or Johannesson side.
Seems like I've found what I was hoping to find. The small rural farming area of Ostra Hungvik in Sweden (pic from Google Earth) is where my great-grandfather was born and from where he left for Australia as a young man of around 18.
He was one of nine children, most of whom ended up in the USA.
Got some more digging to do I think - stay tuned.
