Hello there :)
I am looking for any information relating to the brother, Mother, and daughter of Sven Christian Petersen Lind.
Here is what I know about Sven:
Sven was born in Denmark, August 4th, 1903 - his parents were Christine Juliane Petersen (b. June 1st, 1881) and Magnus Figensen Lind (b. March 10th, 1873). Sven also had a brother who was born February 1st, 1905 in Denmark - I do not know any more about him, unfortunately. Sven immigrated to the USA in November 1922, and initially it seems settled in San Francisco. He married Ariel Virgina Taft (marriage date unknown). Sven became known in America as Perry Christian Lind. He and Arial had two children: a boy named Perry Taft Lind on January 21, 1936 in San Francisco (died June 20, 2021 in Gig Harbour, Pierce, Washington) and a girl who was born about 1942. Their father Sven (Perry) died in Washington October 31, 1960 and his wife Arial died in 1986.
Sven's (Perry) mother Christine Juliane Lind divosed her husband Magnus and later remarried Niels Peder Sorensen Hammer on November 5, 1927. In the years following it seems he died. On May 28, 1937 she left Denmark and joined her son Sven (Perry) in San Francisco. I have no information when or where she died.
Any information about Sven's (Perry) mother, brother or daughter would be fantastic.
Warmest regards, :)

The brother was Dreng Lind
I assume you have the 1906 census

We cannot post about living people. The daughter born about 1942 could well be still living, and you need to remove her name from this thread.

I have removed the information about the daughter from the thread.
However, the death certificate of Ariel gives an informant name worth investigating.

Thank you - I think Dreng means Boy and was not his name.

Yes, Dreng in this sense means boy. Otherwise Dreng is an occupation - farmhand.
