Chiamata R/Svezia,
Ieri ho pubblicato posta sul mio bisnonno svedese e qualcuno era interessato a come fossero i suoi discendenti.
Questo è mio nonno, Colin Dahlstrom. Nipote di Ernest Viktor Dahlström.
Un fatto divertente, penso a tutti voi piacerete; Blackfullas (è così che gli altri indigeni in Australia si riferiscono a ciascuno come) non sapevano come pronunciare il nome di Ernest, quindi lo hanno appena chiamato “Tommy”. Decenni dopo, so che hanno circa sei cugini che si chiamano Tommy, tutti dal nome del loro bisnonno.

Is Ernest Viktor your great grandfather or your **great** **great** grandfather?
These posts have been a real treat!
Interesting to note that he has rather dark skin and hair, but seems to have blue eyes, which is a recessive trait. I know that some Melanesians have dark skin, blond hair and blue eyes. Do you know whether blue eyes sometimes occur among aboriginals as well?
He looks exactly like a bunch of older guys I’ve seen here in Sweden!!
With that tan and those blue eyes he’d fit right in at Falsterbo.
Just give him a very expensive car.
This is so cool.
That’s super interesting! I saw in your other post that your great great grandfather died in Moree. I’ve actually been there myself when I toured around Australia in a 4wd. That trip was one of the best things I’ve ever done and you’ve got a beautiful country!
Looks like a very typical a-lagare.
I heard from an ex boyfriend, a Dahlström that everyone with that spelling is relatated. Your grandpa looks even alot like his family. They are “Finlandssvenskar” swedish decentends but from Finland. Even know that some of their family were sailors.
