I'll start looking. Do you have any dates? Olaf Johnson is a pretty common name. Children's names would help too.

Thanks for your patience. What does Hulu mean? I've seen that there are numerous places named that. Didn't find anything in the Swedish - English online dictionary.
Patrick M. Tavenner commented on Debbie Anne Jackson's group 'Sweden and Swedish Ancestry'

I just looked it up on the map and V. Ryd and Lommaryd aren't that far apart so it makes sense.
Thanks.

- Sorry for the delay in responding to your note! I signed up on GenealogyWise, but have not been paying attention! I'd be very interested in sharing information on the Tavenner family in Ohio. My 3rd great grandparents were James Tavener and Nancy Clancy. James died 16 August 1852, probably in Morgan county OH. His daughter, Catherine Elizabeth Tavenner, married Isaac Archer Barton in 1872.
