Another leaf for the Goranson tree

Dear ones,

If you find the heading a little too poetical to be mine you are right. It is stolen from a verbal descendant and he is contributing much more than you can ever imagine here on my blog. He is the encouraging type and we suspect up here that my secretary is the need of confirmation-type so they work well together ;-) We are above all such needs up here, we are all perfect you know.

Today is a happy day. Well, it has been for quite a few days now. One reason is that one of you my dear great grand kids has found a suitable wife and asked her to marry. It happened on a top of a hill so I had quite a close look at the loved ones. God job!

And then there is the reason in the heading. Another leaf, another georgous little baby with genes from me (well, mum and dad, I know you have been involved - I send my warm congratulations and I thank you for permitting me to show the rest of the folks the picture of your little wonderful man Brody!)

If you get confused with all the people involved in my family, do take a look at Kindo, the free family tree maker where my secretary has tried to sort it all out for you. You can see the relations between those I have told you about with their photos. Up to the year of 1903 there are 44 people including myself and my parents. When I continue the story you will be able to follow the new names in the Kindo tree. To be see it please admit your e-mail adress to goran.danielsson@ljungby.nu simply writing YES, invite me. If you are still on earth I will ask you before entering your name, so if you would like to take part and know it already, add a PS saying so.

All for today I guess,

with love Göran.

Summer time, visiting time!

Dear readers,

I am busy! I want to make sure all is well with my dear grandkids, crossing the ocean, so I do some job on the side as a guardian angel. I want to make sure they arrive safely at Hovdinge.

At this moment Oscar's oldest son Göran, renamed John, is pleased to know that his granddaughter Billie is treading the soil of her ancestors. My secretary even made her tread on some mud to look at a tree house which a future building contractor is working at together with a companion. Look at them!

Billie and her husband Pat are in Hovdinge together with a couple of friends. They went into the church of Ljungby to take a photo of the baptismal font which is from 14th century and should have been in use when her grandfather Göran/John Oscarsson was baptized there in 1872, as well as his father Oscar in 1846.



Then they went to a cottage once belonging to a soldier born around the same time as Oscar. It helped to make them understand what our home looked like in those days when I was still around before 1870.

With love to you all,
Göran Danielsson.
