Searching for information on my lost family members.
1. Captain Karl Johan Osterlund, born Aug 24, 1837 Finland.
2. Captain Anders Karlsson, born 1826 Finland.
3. Captain Gustav Erik Osterlund, born Oct 26, 1844, Finland.
4. Captain Erik Gustav Wennstrom, born 1857, Finland.
A month ago, I had discovered there were four Finnish sea Captains within my families genealogy. PLEASE--If anyone has information on any of the four, PLEASE let me know. People in your family tree is special, but having four sea Captains, it is super. I do not know where else to find the answers, Please help me!! Thank You for reading, Rodney USA.

Please, it is not necessary to post the same questions many times (see the posting guidelines!). As this is a site mainly dealing with Norwegian ancestry it might not be anyone here researching Finnish genealogy, and that might be the reason why you have not received an answer to the previous post on this subject yet. I am locking this topic!

Continuation here: The four lost family sea Captains...
