These pictures are of my Swedish ggrandparents, my grandfather and my great uncles.Peter & Nellie came from Kristianstad, Sweden in 1881.
The bottom photo shows them in 1920. The top photo back row:
August, William, Nels, John
Front row My ggrandfather Peter, my grandfather Arthur, my ggrandmother Nellie.
In the bottom photo it appears that my ggrandfather has a white collar on- actually it is his beard grown on the neck only- the top photo shows the same style beard. I am assuming this is some type of Swedish tradition to grow the beard this way.
