Gustav Henderson
I have always hoped to find a relative.  Possibly this is a cousin of my husband…who knows.  But Davenport is all the way across the State of Iowa from Logan Iowa where my husbands Great Grandparents settled…but you never know.
Thanks for stopping by.

Update from Iggy:
Gustav Henderson born May 10 1873 in Sweden.  He died September 26, 1960 in Hennepin County Minnesota.  He is buried at St John's Cemetery Norman County Minnesota.
He married  Ida Sophia Johnson 1882-1970
He had several siblings; Berhardina Henderson Stone  1868 -1964, Carl Henderson 1871 -1889 and Oscar Henderson 1875 -1940.

Gustav's sister Berhardina Henderson Stone was married to Eric Stone a brother of Christine Stone Johnson in yesterdays photo.

Update from Debby and Roger:
My cousin Roger Agartsson in Sweden wanted me to add this to the blog for Gustav Henderson:
His parents would be Karl Peter Henriksson b. May 3 1842 in Hällefors Örebro Sweden
Maria Katrina Ersdotter b. Dec 17 1837 in Gåsbom Värmland Sweden.
Their children are Bernhardina b. Dec 25 1868 in Hällefors
Karl Johan b. July 19 1871 in Hällefors
Per Gustaf b. May 10 1873 in Hällefors
Oskar Fredrik b. Jan 1 1875 in Hällefors
The family left Skålen Långnäs Hällefors for North America in June 1883. Hope this helps? Debby

  1. I think this Gustav Henderson was related to the people in the previous photo - I think he is Find A Grave Memorial# 88058019 and his sister, Bernhardina Henderson Stone married Eric Stone, the brother of Christina Stone Johnson (1856 - 1940), the mother in the photo 2056.

    This would make Gustav a nephew (and explain the "Uncle Hans" label in Photo 2056.)

  2. Wouldn't that have been something if that was a relative?
