Does anyone know whether or not there is an Andersonimmigrant
here in America going by the name of Franden?
Below is a correspondence which asks the same question.:)

Hi Julie
No I don't do research - but here is what I know.My x husbands grandfather was a draft dodger? His name was actually Anderson - On the ship coming over he heard franden and changed his name to that.Eventually the name was spelled Frandeen so it would be pronounced correctly.I hope this is helpful.

X,
I am researching the Frandeen surname.I came across your name and discovered that you do genealogy research also.I have the Anders Petter Franden, Sr. maternal line back to Sweden in the 1600s.I have traced the name to the Kennabec Co., MN.
If you are interested, perhaps we could share info.
Julia
