Dolores, it will help if you give the info you do have on him, ie what records you have found already and how you worked back to the couple. :-)

Fritz Ugene Lorenson

His father was Noel and mother Alma Lorenson somewhere in Sweden. Fritz U. Lorenson had a niece Karen Johanson who lived in Malmo, or Lungskile, or Ljungskile Sweden. I'm guessing Fritz was born around 1888 in January. Fritz Lorenson immgrated to Canada around 1908, worked at cutting ties for the railroad in Minnesota USA. From there he purchased a homestead in Three Creeks, Alberta Canada around 1930.

I would like to find any info on Joel Lorenson and his wife Alma Lorenson. I do not know Alma's maiden name. I am guessing Joel was born in the 1860s. I would like to find out about the other children born to them. I know Fritz Eugene was born to them and that he had a sister and a brother but do not know their names.
Fritz Eugene Lorenson had a niece Karen Johanson, or Johansson and she was a nun but I do not know what church. I believe she lived in either Lungskile, or Ljungskile, or Malmo all in Sweden.

Regards

Dolores
