Alf Hammarberg was my fathers uncle. So that means Alf``s mother was my fathers grandmother: Elin Carlsen. She was married to Carl Carlsen, a MarineCaptain on a vessel in the Kongo Belgique for King Leopol.

So if im not wrong: Alf`s son, Raymond, had a daugther ,Ethel Horgen...

If you want to know more about this part of the famili, just let me know :)

Raymond Alf Hammarberg, 70, of Arnold, a retired tugboat captain from the port of Philadelphia, died of cardiac arrest Tuesday at his home.

Born in Jamaica, N.Y., he was raised in Brooklyn and served in the Coast Guard during World War II.

After the war, he worked as a captain on his own tugboat based on the Delaware River at the port of Philadelphia. He retired about five years ago and took up the hobby of model boat building.
