  Research Notes:

Lovisa's older brother Pehr Johan Jonsson Selander is the earliest reference to the name Silander in our family tree.

It was Lovisa who introduced the name Silander to the Andersson family, and eventually to me.

Lovisa went to Gothenburg in 1876, and appears to have been close to her sister Christina, and eventually cared for her sister's children (including my grandfather) following her sister's death in 1891.
