Hej, my name is Christopher Hagstrom from New Britain, Pennsylvania near Philadelphia,USA and I am a new member here. I would be most grateful for any info./assistance in tracing my paternal great-grandparents, Otto Wilhelm Hagstrom and his first wife, Edla Sophia Norrgard.Unfortunately I have very little to go on in the way of birth/death dates/parish membership. I do know from my grandfather, Harry O. Hagstrom, that they probably came from the Aland Islands (Ahvenenmaa) and emigrated to Philadelphia and then settled in Camden, New Jersey & ,later, Riverton NJ.
A member of this forum very kindly contacted me from a query I left on the Alands Emigrants Institute guestbook. He related that the surname Norrgard seems to be from Osterbotten in the Swedish-speaking west coast area of Finland at the Gulf of Bothnia. I am also told from family sources that Edla Sophia's family were possibly merchants(jewellers). The forum member further related that he and a co-ordinator from the Alands Institute found US Census info from 1910 showing an Otto Hagstrom, widower,b.about 1866, emigrated 1890 from Finland.Any info.much appreciated--thanks!
