Hei Hanne Line!Ser at du har funnet Karl og familien hans! Han var født 22. desember 1863.Broren Olof Gustav var født 7. juli 1861. Erik Samuel født 16. juli 1884, Theodor 8. september 1887 og Agnes Elisabeth 6. august 1890. Alle var født i Sverige, men far til Erik Samuel, Theodor og Agnes flyttet med familien til Norge i andre halvdel av 1890-tallet.Gamlefar Olof Backström var født 27. juni 1831. Han var dermed en gammel mann på 72 år da han emigrerte.Takk for hjelpen så langt!

Hei igjen Hanne Line og mange tusen takk for masse informasjon!Det ser vel egentlig ikke ut til at hverken Samuel eller Ted (Theodor) fikk barn. I Teds World War I Draft Registration Cards nevnes at han har wife and child - og det må nødvendigvis være Clara og dattera. Barn av Samuel nevnes ikke i det hele tatt. Fant forøvrig på denne siden Lenke at Gus (1861 - 1934), Annie (1863 - 1928) og Samuel E Backstrom (1884 - 1931) er begravet på Greenwood Hills cemetry i Multnomah.Agnes er blitt litt borte, men hun har kanhende giftet seg til et annet navn?Videre ser jeg at Charles har en datter; Verna. I 1910 sies det at Gus har 2 barn. Dattera Minnie bor hjemme, men er det mulig å finne navnet til det andre barnet? Finnes Gus i 1900 census?Spørsmål: Hva er WWI Draft Registration Card? mvh

World War I Draft Registration Cards, 1917-1918HistoryOn 6 April 1917, the United States declared war on Germany and officially entered World War I. Six weeks later, on 18 May 1917, the Selective Service Act was passed, which authorized the president to increase the military establishment of the United States. As a result, every male living within the United States between the ages of eighteen and forty-five was required to register for the draft.The period of 1880-1920 was a high immigration period to the United States. Young men were required to register for the draft regardless of their U.S. citizenship status. Of course, not all the men who registered actually served in the armed forces, and there were some who served in the war but did not register for the draft.Registration The World War I draft consisted of three separate registrations.First Registration. The registration on 5 June 1917, was for men aged twenty-one to thirty-one—men born between 6 June 1886 and 5 June 1896. Second Registration. The registration on 5 June 1918, was for men who had turned twenty-one years of age since the previous registration—men born between 6 June 1896 and 5 June 1897. Men who had not previously registered and were not already in the military also registered. In addition, a supplemental registration on 24 August 1918, was for men who turned twenty-one years of age since 5 June 1918. Third Registration. The registration on 12 Sept 1918, was for men aged eighteen to twenty-one and thirty-one to forty-five—men born between 11 Sept 1872 and 12 Sept 1900.The complete registration included men between the ages of 18 and 45—males born between 1873 and 1900—who were not already in the military.- hanne line -
