Hi all, I am trying to track a long lost relative. His name is Israel Pehrsson Tjernstrom. our last name may have changed a bit we have also heard of Tiarnstrom. This all at the end became Charnstrom. He was born on 21/1/1760 we think at Tjer Gerd. sjalevad, Arnas, Sweden. In which we hope is close to the spelling. He was married to Barbro Olofsson Westerlund, born at Vallen Gard. Sjalevad on 29/6/1760 (maybe).
Also wondering what ships came to Australia, especially down under to Adelaide, South Australia. |

You better try the swedish: Anbytarforum: http://genealogi.aland.net/discus/

As Wanda suggest, go to the LSD site, use the name Israel Pehrsson, birth year 1760, country Sweden and you will get it all. (Except some simplification of the spellings - ä, ö,æ, and so on is not covered and a "j" may be written as an "l".)
You will also find Israels parents and siblings. Second entry. (Par is a notation for the family of Israels father, therefore I would think Par Israel Pehrson would be the right description for Israel)
And in the third entry you will get his marriage to Barbro, click "family" and you get their children too. |

Also try http://www.dis.se - you can register as a guest or pay $15 per year, and put the name in, maybe someone has already downloaded information for them! I found that site very helpful and connected with 2 distant cousins of mine!!
Make sure you click on the flag at the bottom of the left side for the language that you prefer! I think it's a British flag! |

Here's an email address from the DIS website for a person researching Israel Tjärnström/Tjernstrom born 1760 dead 1808 in Arnås. She's got the ancestors on the father's side dating back to 1591! monicafogelqvist@hotmail.com
