Too bad Sweden wasn’t like this when they were fighting Poland all those years ago.

Great grandpa Gus came to the US in 1902 from Vastervik.

He worked laying bricks, mining coal, digging wells and making cemetery monuments until he had enough money to bring his wife and daughter over here.
That was five years later, in 1907.

Their daughter was my mother’s mom...
