Try going to the Swedish Rotter/Anbytarforum boards. You can ask for information in English there. Good luck!

Hi JB you wrote me and said you needed help with a photo?
JB Peterson commented on Lorine McGinnis Schulze's group 'Lost Faces: Ancestor Photos & Albums'
Family members think this is my 3RD GGF. I think it may be my 2ND GGF. I am hoping someone may have an opinion as to:
1) the age of Pete Fine
and
2) an approximate age for the photo itself.

Monica Staversjö replied to JB Peterson's discussion 'Oskar Eskil Erickson' in the group Most Wanted! Ancestors Lost and Found
Hi, Checked for his name on Ancestry and it seems he immigrated to the US around 1865-1867 acc to the census 1900 and 1920. Naturalized in 1875 acc to the 1920 census. So it could be somewhere around that time. That would mean he emigrated with his…
