In what way do people eat this stuff called WASA Crisp Bread?

40. It was really strange trying to read birth records.

I ended up making a cheat sheet of different Swedish words. That helped a lot. I did get back to the point where the first name of the father was the last name of the kids after adding son or dotter. I was lucky all 4 grandparents had ancestry booklets going back at least to the early 1800’s one into the 1700’s done by a couple of my aunts. I don’t know where a picture went to of a family farm in Sweden. Probably one of my brothers has it. But evidently they were pretty rich or powerful. The danish in my blood came from one of my far back grandfathers married into danish royalty. Likely one of those I have a daughter and you have money/power bits they did way back.

Furthest back I got was in the late 1400’s.

I have the original contract when one of my grandfathers came over around 1900. It had the full route including the ship to England, then the U.S., and a train ticket to South Dakota. That surprised me when I saw his last name changed when he got here. The document has his last name as Karlson not Carlson. But found out later it happened a bunch in our family when they came here.
