Apparently my great - grandfather immigrated from Kronika Sweden to the United States in the 20's. My name is Anderson but he changed our name from Swenson (Svenson?) to Anderson for some reason. Not much is known because he died when my grandfather was only 12 and he doesn't remember much at all. We only found out 15 years ago when my grandfather found his dads bible and it was in Swedish and referenced him with the last name Svenson.

So some relatives went over and found record of our family in Kronika. I can't seem to find where that is. I have plans to visit them soon to discover what they found out but i'm curious.

Any Swedes on this forum?
