By publishing the genealogy on the internet I have come in contact with relatives I didn't know before and other genealogists that have been a great help to me. It has given me a lot in return! Specially fun is the contact with my 4th cousin Lori Callaway from the US. She was looking for her Swedish family and found my web page in 2005. It wasn't enough that we were indeed related and 4th cousins, we reunited the family, we became best friends then sisters.

If you find any common relatives, I would be happy to hear from you.

Inquiries for:

Does anyone know who this man is or what kind of uniform he is wearing?

The picture is taken in Skara, Sweden, the year is probably 1892.

I am grateful for all clues.
