Description :
This is a photo sent to relatives in Nosaby parish, Sweden. On the back of the photo you can read "Uncle Nils eldest son Georg". This uncle was Nels Nelson born on the 5:th of august 1861 in Balsby, Nosaby parish in southern Sweden. He emigrated to USA and married Marie Nelson 1882 in Marinette, Wisconsin. (All according to www.familysearch.com) The boy Georg is brobably born 1882-1890 according to the date of marriage.

Mystery :
The son Georg's father was a brother to my great grandmothers mother who emigrated from Sweden. The only currentlink to my american relatives is this photo that verifies the fact that they settled in Marinette Wisconsin. But I don't know anything else about the swedish-american family and i'd be most thrilled to find out more facts. What became of young Georg Nelson; born about 1882 in Marinette Wisconsin? Was he married and did he get any children and, if so, are there any living descendents today?
