Subject: [ROOTS-L] Johan Isakson of Silverhill, Baldwin County, Alabama
Date: Thu, 12 Oct 2006 07:29:30 -0500


Johan Isakson moved into the new Swedish colony of Silverhill in Baldwin
County, Alabama sometime around 1900. I would like to gain information on
this man and his family. Hopefully I can find his living descendants. He
was left behind in Sweden when his family moved to the USA and never joined
them once he managed to get to the United States. Any details I can gather
on J. A. Isakson would be greatly appreciated. My notes have him born 29
Jan 1855 but I am not sure of that date - some clues indicate it may have
been 1845. He was a charter member of the Mission Covenant church in
Silverhill. I don't know his US residence before Silverhill.
