Name: Pete Blomström
Comments: Hello;

My name is Peter W. Blomström. I am from Staten Island, NY. My father Gustaf was born here in 1909, the 6th and youngest child of John-Lars and Wilhelmina Blomström who emmigrated to the US around the turn of the century.

I have been in touch with a few Blomströms from Sweden and apparently it is believed that the name can be traced back to 16th Century Sweden and Finland.

A famous Swedish economist, Dr. Magnus Blomström, told me that it is entirely appropriate to use the "ö" in the last syllable to give it the proper "oe" sound. I have been using it ever since.

I would certainly welcome any correspondence or exchange of information.

Sincerely,

Pete Blomstrom

Name: David B Blomstrom Sr
Comments: I am the oldest of the five children born to Gunnar & Rosanna Blomstrom and I see my baby brother and baby sister, plus my son, have already signed in. One of the highlights of my life was visiting Sweden, Denmark, and Norway about 1973; we were treated like royalty by some very distant second and third cousins. Visited my grandmothers birth home and the cemetery where my grandfather's parents were buried. We had such a great time and I regret we have not returned long ago for another visit. Now, Ginger (my wife) and I have been discussing this return visit seriously and--barring disasters--hope to return in about 2 years when she completes work on her PhD. We have a daughter Debbie who is the mother of our only granchild, Danny. We lost our middle Daughter, Denise, when she was 22 (1991) to an accident. I am posting my e-mail address here for anyone who wishes to contact me, especially those real Swedes in Sweden. Incidentally, my cousin, Knute lives in mid-Texas near a settlement called New Sweden. The country around there reminds one of Swedish farm country. You will hear from Cuz Knute when he wakes up; he sleeps a lot in his old age! (67, and he's a lot older than me--9 months). Well, I have rambled too long but you know how Texans are when they get started.

Comments: Hello all Blomstrom descendants (again)--

I have enjoyed visiting with some of you via internet and am looking forward to the day we may have the chance to meet in person and swap heritage stories, etc.

There has been some interest shown in a possible National Blomstrom Reunion, a weekend event, probably in the mid-west summer of 2005. I'd be interested in hearing from all of you who would favor such an event and, very importantly, might volunteer to help put it together.

davidblomstrom@aol.com will reach me, or call 713/771-4385, ext 228 24 hours daily to leave a message or maybe catch me live.

Thanks

Name: Elaine Blomstrom Wolter
Comments: Hi Blomstroms. I'm John K. Blomstrom's aunt. My great grandparents were Gust and Selma Blomstrom. They farmed a mile north of the Iowa/Minnesota border in Martin County on land purchased from a railroad company. They had four children, Eleanor, Blanche, Albert (died when he was 16), and Reynold (my grandpa). If we're related, the connection would have to be in Sweden, I think. Gust was born in Vermland, Sweden in 1851 and came to the US in 1878. Selma was born in Ostergotland, Sweden, in 1864, and came to the US when she was 11 yrs. old. They were married in 1881. Connections? Holiday greetings to all.

Name: Rich Anderson
Comments: Hello from Illinois!My Grandmother, Albertina Lidstrom, was listed in the Swedish Census of 1890 in Varmland with the Family of Jan Magnus Blomstrom and Elsa Kristina Gafvert, and a son Oskar. It is possible that Albertina may have changed her surname before emigrating to America in May of 1896 on the ship "Hekla". Ellis Island lists the arrival date as May 30, 1896. According to the National Archives in Chicago,the microfilm shows the ship departing from Copenhagen and then going to Christiana (Oslo). I would appreciate any help or info you may have. Thank you very much. Rich Anderson

My mother, brother and his family, and my family are the only Blomstroms in this area, and I've lost touch (not exactly accurate-never was in touch) with the families of my father's brothers. I hope this will result in contact with some of my cousins.

A woman named "Mrs. Blomstrom" (I think it was Helen?) was my teacher in 4th and 5th grade at Bradford School in Upper Montclair, New Jersey in the mid to late'60s. She was the most awesome teacher I ever knew. Any family of her? I write as a tribute to her and with many many thanks! What an influence she had on my life. I shall always be grateful.

While there the took in a Yankees/White Sox game, the Sox won and also visited Peter Blomstrom and wife Nanine on Staten Island. The Texas Blomstroms were treated to a barbeque by Peter and his lovely wife.
Also attending was his delightful mother, brother and nephew with a new Blomstrom, 3 weeks old. Later they visited Peter and Nancy Blomstrom in Connecticut for another BBQ served in the new gazebo in Peter and Nacy's back yard. Peter has quiet a green thumb and his yard is a veritable garden.

Name: Anders Blomström
Comments: Hi!
I am one of three or more Anders in Stockholm. My lineage comes from Halfvard Blomström in Treskog Värmland. he in mentioned first time in 1755 as huis son was baptised. That lineage can be found described in "Släkten Olson-Seffer" at Genealogiska föreningen in Stckholm.
The closest relative of mine to America is Johan Blomström. His first letter from NY to his brother Emil is dated 16 november 1891. But he comes back to Sweden after some hard years. Going over there fo the second time 1901. 23 maj 1994 he writes about his hard life and his family in his second letter.
22 november 1902 comes the third letter. The first after going back. From No 4, Forth Avenue New Brighton US of A. Life is getting better. Parttime work as painter och as lighthouse watchman. In one of the two last letters from 1903 and 1908 he counts up his family. Six children: John Robert 30 april 1896, Ellen elisabeth 17 february 1898, Anna Matilda 28 okt 1900, Carl Emil, Ruth Eugenia and Gustav Adolf 1909. He also had a son that was brought up by his brouger Per Emil called Lars Richard. The wife Wanda of Lars Richard is still alive! But very old.

Recently found that I have a relative on my maternal Grandfather's side named Helen Starnes Blomstrom. Helen was born in 1914 in Nebraska to Harriet and Leonard Sarnes. She then married a Blomstrom, but I do not know more than that as far as the Blomstrom line. Wondering if she is related to this Blomstrom bunch? Helen had two siblings - a brother Carl & a sister Lois.

I haven't checked into the Guestbook in awhile. being the youngest child (not so young any more), of Gunnar Blomstrom, I had no idea there were so many of us. In the greater Houston area, ALL of the Blomstrom's are directly related to each other. I was wondering if one of our Swedish brothers or sisters would give the correct definition of the name- Blomstrom. By the way, we survived Hurricane Ike just well.

Teddy, who was born 3 months premature and weighed 1.5 lbs. at birth is now a strapping 27 lbs., 32 inches tall and continues to surpass his physical & developmental milestones on a daily basis. We are all feeling the crunch from the economy these days but are stretching the paychecks, conserving energy and making due.
It's great to see that this site is still an active meeting place for all our family branches to congregate, share and exchange info, history and thoughts. (Hope our our Texas Blomstrom friends are faring well!) It is also wonderful to have so much participation from our brothers and sisters in Sweden. (Hello Anders and family!)

Comments: Hi Y'all from another Texas Blomstrom who has not posted anything for a long while.

My family and I are still intent on making a trip to Stockholm for Mid-Sommar, possibly in 2010, but maybe later, Lord willing (I'm 73). We had a great time in Chicago in 2005 meeting Blomstroms from around the USA and later visiting two families in NY. Haven't found a disagreeable Blomstrom yet--just some hard-headed ones!

Some great stories from this family name.

I can still be contacted at davidblomstrom@aol.com but my office info has changed (713/541-9191) and residence is same--
7503 Foster Creek Drive, Richmond, Tx 77406. 281/341-6962

Interested in making contact with Stockholm (or nearby) Blomstrom families.
