Britt-Marie Nordqvist and Gail Holm on the rocky coast at Kladesholmen on Tjörn Island. Britt-Marie is the great-granddaughter of Matilda Sörqvist, Frida Holm’s sister so she is the second cousin once-removed to Albert. Britt-Marie’s grandmother was Anna Wallstrom.

Britt-Marie told us a very interesting piece of the family history. Al’s grandmother’s grandmother, Eva Gabrielsson, had been sent to debtor’s prison in 1876. Her husband had run off to Norway so she was unable to earn a living and raise her children.

Britt-Marie and Gail are standing on the rocky coast with blue sea, blue sky,
           and two rocky islands behind them.
