There may be something of interest here:

You could ask if a Rootschatter could do a look up for you.

He was born in Nordmaling, Västerbotten abt 1855/56 I believe. I have no idea of his Swedish name although a Eric Olssen was suggested.  But his name here was Charles Thompson.
Hi Shazz54
Just wondering where you got Nordmaling from.

Hi Ian

To be honest from information on Ancestry & MyHeritage.  I have always been told he was born in Sweden. Have chatted to a couple of people who have him in their trees too but they can't give me any more info.  I have his death certificate hoping would give me more info.  No parents names but says birth in Sweden but hard to read place.  Looks like Nordonsling but could be Nordmaling.  Also his son confirmed in documents that his father was born in Sweden.  Been trying to work this all out for some time now. Regards Shazz

Can you scan the place name and post it here.
Also where did you get Eric Olssen from?

Hi Ian
Copy of Death Certificate
As for Eric Olssen was just a long shot.  My friend helping me out matched this person as born in Nordmaling in right year & shows no record of marriage or children.  Yep a long shot.
Cheers Shazz

Hmm, not convinced it is Nordmaling. But I cannot think of anything better.

Perhaps hold off for a few days, our looker upper is on this thread, and should reply when he has a moment. Minnie or I could give him a nudge if he hasn't responded to  the thread. :D
