Australia Lookups completed / Lindquist - Sweden to Australia
« on: Saturday 09 July 05 13:01 BST (UK)  »
My great grandfather - Nils Jakob Lindqvist/Jacob Nicholas Lindquist - was born around 1864, came to Australia as a ship's carpenter in the 1880s and was naturalised in 1909. He died in Victoria in 1947.

We know he came from Norrkoping in Sweden where his father was a teacher but there the information ends. What part of Norrkoping did he come from? Did he have siblings?

Are you able to help?

Christine.
