I'm afraid *my* Oscar Leander Lundquist is an unknown...
He was my grandfather.Here is the basic info I have. If any of this matches, I could scrounge up more:)Please let me know if any info sounds familiar!
Oscar Lundquist was born in Sweden in 1883 and died in Superior, WI in 1965. Buried in Greenwood Cemetery.
His parents were Andrew and Anna Pierson (Pearson?).
I believe he had an older brother.
Oscar arrived in US as a young adult or teen.(I can't find the original record.)
I believe his parents remained in Sweden.
Oscar married Ruth Harrop from Rockford, IL in 1916.
He moved to Superior, WI.He had 4 children:2 girls died, 2 boys survived (one was my dad).
Oscar was a severe alcoholic......He worked at Acme Foundation in Superior, WI.
I have a picture of him and Ruth--I tried to send it to you, but my email was returned.Contact me with correct email if you'd like it.
