Welcome to Rootschat madeline1!

I've found some bits and pieces - nothing about Gustavus though...

Do you have birthdates for his children - and names for his daughters??

Sorry about that - I tried to modify my first post but hit quote instead!  Do you have birthdates for Gustavas' children and/or names for his daughters?
