But human life cont<strong>in</strong>ues…..<br />

My <strong>in</strong>terest for writ<strong>in</strong>g family Chronicles and arrange opportunities<br />

for relatives <strong>to</strong> meet began when I came <strong>to</strong> the USA <strong>in</strong> 1978. This<br />

was the first time I met with my relatives over there. In order <strong>to</strong><br />

f<strong>in</strong>d out how we were related I designed a family tree and wrote a<br />

simple chronicle about roots <strong>in</strong> the prov<strong>in</strong>ce of Närke <strong>in</strong> Sweden.<br />

This first chronicle was translated. It is this old Chronicle I have now<br />

elaborated <strong>in</strong><strong>to</strong> ”Närketrilog<strong>in</strong>”. This book is not translated.<br />

I was so eager <strong>to</strong> f<strong>in</strong>d out more<br />

about how my own forfathers and<br />

formothers lived their lives, I have<br />

produced Part 1 and 2 of the Hell<strong>in</strong>g<br />

Family Chronicle, start<strong>in</strong>g with how<br />

my grandfather Per Adolf met with<br />

Edla, his partner for life. Now it is<br />

time for someone else <strong>to</strong> cont<strong>in</strong>ue<br />

writ<strong>in</strong>g our family s<strong>to</strong>ry.<br />
