Ericcson, Gustav, born 1885

[Deane Craig]

Need more complete information on a Ericcson (Erickson), Gustav (Gustof) born in Uppsala and possibly the parrish of Viksta.  Family traditon has the town of Tegalsmora mentioned but this might be where his wife was born.  Gustav immigrated to Worcester, Massachusetts, USA and died there.  This is mostly all I have to go on.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you.

Deane, please check out the information at Swedish Roots and especially the section called The First Steps.

In particular, it would be useful to know approximately when (within what range of years) Gustaf Eriksson emigrated. I have checked Viksta and Tegelsmora birth records for 1885, but no matching child Gustaf born there it seems. Either the year is wrong, or the places, or both. As Elisabeth suggests, we need a bit more to go on.
