« on: Sunday 08 April 12 08:05 BST (UK)  »
Hej !

I've not found Any new information on my relative Janne for month and months - I am stuck !
  I would Love if Anyone could help me find him.

Janne Sandberg born sep 25, 1847 in Florshult, Sweden.
 His parents : Nils Sandberg born 1808 and Pernilla Nilsdotter.

According to a Very old post on another website - this very man, Janne Sandberg, was a steward on ships, the first one was SS Camellia mar 12, 1885 - 21 feb 1887 and they sailed from Cardiff.
 - And the person (who I cant find) was a descendant to Janne, so he obvisouly had a family in England.

But - I cannot find Anything ! Can anyone help me find something on Janne or his family in England?

Thank you in advance.

Ross & Cromarty / Help ! Duff Family in Scotland
« on: Wednesday 04 May 11 16:18 BST (UK)  »
Hej !
  I'm looking for Duff family in Scotland.
We know very little..
   We've heard from a familymember that the Duff family comes from a place called Portmahomack in Scotland. (Not verified tho)

We have Alexander Duff (no d.o.b, from scotland tho) who marries Elizabeth Jamieson (no d.o.b).
 They get a son Walter Robert McKay Duff (17 May 1905, Edinburgh City, Scotland)
Walter Robert later married Catherine Murray Baxter. This is as far as we know !
 - I've tried to look in online census, but I cant find them !

Does anyone know anything about this family? What are their parents called ?? Where their family from Portmahomack as we where told? Did they have sisters/brothers ?
 
I would be very very happy if anyone knew anything about them !  :)
