Interesting - I wonder if my earlier contact had mis-read or mis-heard the birth date (had it in June - "Jan" mis-read as "Jun"?).  Thanks again.

By the way, ... In the records that you've found, was Augusta Maria baptised as an Anderson, or as a Bruhn?

Here it is:

..and of course you're right! it is "June" not "jan" - My mistake!

With respect to surname, I see only Bruhn...

Many thanks again, Jan!  Now, if only I could figure out the logic (if there was any!) used by the Swedish army, when they took it upon themselves to change the family name ...  ::)

I live in Sydney, Australia, and I'm researching: Powell, Tatham, Dunbar, Dixon, Mackwood, Kinnear, Mitchell, Morgan, Delves, & Anderson

If it was «Augustsson» I could have proposed an explanation, but I don’t  know really….

I don’t know if this new to you, but a deceased member of DIS Sweden has entered this information into the membership database:

Fredric Bernhard born 1838 Mollösund, Göteborgs & Bohus län to parents August Bruhn, born 1810 Myckleby, Göteborgs & Bohus län ; died 1859 Käringön, Göteborgs & Bohus län, and Regina Carling, died 1857 Fiskebäckskil, Göteborgs & Bohus länAny news?

Ooooh, hadn't seen that one - probably because it's a website I hadn't found, yet.  Interesting!

It is not available on the internet, it is from Dis Norway/Dis Sweden's
Private membership database.

- should always be checked against the original sources!

Hi again!

I think August Bruhn's funeral 1859 is in the middle here:

(Very faded and possibly water damaged...!)

I haven't been able to find the other entries referred to on Dis Sweden.

Jan, you're a gem!  Thank you yet again!  This, in fact, I had never found - probably because I was looking for August Anderson  ::)

Much appreciated :)
