Ernest AGUILON b 30 Nov 1892 Finspang, Sweden - d 20 May 1896 Kelowna BC Canada

I would be very grateful for any information about this man.

What I know already:
Son of Ernst Otto Johan AGILON and his wife Agnes Caroline (nee LYALL) who married in Sweden in 1882 (I have a copy of marriage entry)
I know he is living in England (Headington, Oxford) in 1901, and on the 1911 Canada Census he is living with his Uncle Gustaf GYLLING and Aunt Fanny (nee LYALL) in Montreal, Canada.
He marries Mary Agnes Shappert (who was b  Jul 1906 in Saskatchewan) haven't found  a marriage yet, but her name I found on Family Search with his Death. Her parets were Lawrence Shappert and Amelia, and according to Family Search, come from Austria, Poland (sic) (There were 2 other siblings Helen and John) on the 1916 Canada Census, and that said that John and Amelia had arrived in 1902 - but I couldn't find anything on Ellis Island.

I'd be very grateful for any information on any of these to get me further with this family.
Regards
Jan

Hi Jan,

Ernest Aquilon was my grandfather, Why are you looking for him?

Thanks
Mary

Agnes Caroline was a daughter of my great grand aunts Stepson,  Thomas Lyall.

I have found a number of original records of this family here in Sweden. If you are interested please let me know.

I'm interested in anything I can find about them please? I had a feeling they may have divorced as she was living in UK in 1901 in Oxfordshire with her son Ernst - and then she dies in 1906 in Somerset County, New Jersey, USA - I have Husband living till 1955, and then after her death I have the son Ernst living with Uncle Gustaf Gylling and Aunt Fanny Louisa (nee Lyall) - Fanny is a sister of Agnes Caroline. Ernst the son is living with the Gylings on the 1911 census.

I find these records hard to follow as sometimes his name is Johan Otto Ernst and sometimes Ernst Otto Johan but the dates are the same.
Regards
Jan

Hi kiwicatz,
I have found many records of him and his family. I have traced him from his birth to him leaving Sweden.

Here is a link to the Stockholm archives between 1878 and 1926......
http://www2.ssa.stockholm.se/Rotemannen2012/Search.aspx

Just change the language to English. (if not already showing). I suggest you search in the lastname box...."aq" , as Aquilon is spellt differently at times. You will then get a list of all the Aquilons living in Stockholm during these dates..... and there are quite a number of them.

Hi
I have now found Bertil's birth in Sweden. I don't know how I missed it first time round. I sort of knew he wasn't born in England. I wonder why it said England.

..... and about the divorce of Agnes and Aquilon. I have found that there is a divorce document, which will most probably be in the archives at http://riksarkivet.se/vadstena

There is an official divorce date..... 6 Dec 1893.
