About Nils Olaf Nelson
Brenda's version of Olaf's history says he is born May 17, 1840 and married in "Sweden (Bjorgstaad)" -- this location differs from what was already entered. - David Sutherland 10/2008
"According to Uncle Eric, his father [Olaf] came from Sweden in July, 1868 and took up his homestead in 1871. His [Eric's] parents lived for a time at Beverly, Kansas before coming to their homestead."
--
Helpful genealogy researcher friend in Sweden (Paivi)--indicates "Bjorgstaad" is not a known Swedish city but may refer to a Norwegian city.
