hntnhole Posted February 12 Report Posted February 12 Does it count if we were born there? As I recall, the city is (phonetically) Wherebocka - not sure of the spelling though. 1 Quote

hntnhole Posted February 19 Report Posted February 19 Well, thanks, Anders4, for that hint !!! If I could blush pa Svenska, I would .... that might be it. My family emigrated to the USA when I was less than a year old. We did go back to visit every other year when I was a little kid, but that didn't last all that long, and I just don't recall all that much. I got "naturalized" upon entry into the US, and I have an American birth certificate. But I remember some boxes with papers from the Gamla Rike*. I'll have to pick through some old documents - maybe I can find it. *Moderators: that translation would be "Old Country", so please don't ding me again for a couple of Swedish words. Thank you. Quote
