bullet LEANDER
Axel Albin Leander
was born June 26, 1872 in Lämås, Karlskoga in the province Värmland. He emigrated to US June 3, 1892 under the family name Augustsson after his father August Leander Josephsson. I suppose he used the family name Leander directly after the arrival in US. The first information I have about him in US is from the Census of the United States Population from 1910, when he lived as lodger with Gustaf and Hulda Carlsson at 4415 Souvyer Avenue in Chicago. After that I have been able to follow him over his marriage and to his death, but I am interested to know what he did and where he lived from his arrival in US 1892 till 1910. He had no children. He got his citizenship in US 1900.

August Alexander Leander
was born May 2, 1876 in Lämås, Karlskoga. He emigrated to US September 9, 1896 also under the family name Josephsson. I know from he 12th Census of the US, Population Schedule from 1900 that he most possibly lived as lodger with Fredrik and Amalia Olson at Wendell Street 17 in Chicago. After that I only know that he was declared dead 1950 in connection with a distribution of an estate here in Sweden. I am however interested to know what he did and where he lived between 1896 and 1900. I have not had it confirmed, but it might be my uncle, who on April 1, 1898 had a son Roy out of wedlock with Ida Maria Johansson in Chicago. The child died however already Oct 11, 1898, and Ida Maria married on Nov 22, 1898 Magnus Andersson and had with him 2 daughters. This family is buried in a family grave at the Mount Olive Cemetery in Chicago, and to this grave even the body of Roy, who thus could be my cousin, had been moved. Contact Host if you have info.
