HOLLGREN, NELSON posted by Kemmy Young on Thursday, January 8, 2004: I am researching my family tree on my father's side. Olaf Nelson and Anna Hollgren came over from Stockholm, Sweden 1880-1881. They were married and had 1 child (John Verner) in Boone County, IA. They moved to their homestead near Springview, NE 1885. I am looking for any other information available as well as old photos of any ancestors. Was Verner the only child? There is rumor of a younger sibling that died in famous flu epidemic of 1918 but no record. Any previous heritage from Sweden would be very interesting as well. My grandparents were Everett and Shirley Nelson who were well known and well liked in Springview. Any anecdotes and stories, no matter how small, would be cherished. Thanks tons, Kemmy.
