Second day in Sweden. We went to Askatorp. The birthplace of Anders Hakansson who is Brent’s 4th great grandfather and father of Hakan Anderson. We then went to Tirup and Tarstad where Bengta Andersdotter (Anders Hakansson’s wife) and Hakan Anderson (Brent’s 3rd great grandfather) were born. Bengta’s father and many of her ancestors were born there. We then went to Gumlosa where Brent’s 4th great grandmother, Magnel Mary Olafsdotter was born as well as many of her ancestors.
