Greetings from Sweden! My husband's grandmother's younger brother ERIK Petrus Valentin Peterson was born in Aslemala, Alem parish, Smaland province, Sweden on March 3, 1879. He emigrated to the US in 1907 and first settled with his brothers in East St. Louis, Ill. In 1921 he signed a document in Centralia, Ill. In the death index of Illinois, I have found an Erik Peterson listed to have died in Raccoon Twnship, Marion Co. on june 6, 1931. Maybe this is our man? We'd love to get in touch with any living relatives of Erik's. Best regards, Susanne Akerfeldt
