I am looking for information on the Branback or Maars family from Malax Finland. My grandfather's name was Axel and I believe his father's name was Erik and mother's name was Caroline. He came to this country in the early 1900's. He lived most of his life in Felch, MI. His brother's were (I think) Ed, August, Lloyd. I believe he also had a sister named Anna.

Branback / Maars Family
WOW! Thank you soooo much for all the information. It is a great start on my family tree. Do you know anything about the parents of Axel? I think his mother Carolina was married twice to someone with the last name of Maars.
Thanks Again,

No , I dont know enything about Axels parents. But in the 1900 cencus there is living a Erik Branback in Norway, Michigan . He is a Boarder and he is born about 1860. He is married. He has immigrated in1899.
According to Ellis Island there is a Axel Brenback immigrating to the United States in 1906. He arrives on April 26 1906 on the ship Teutonic from Liverpool. He is 19 years old and he is going to his uncle Benjamin Brenback Box 291 Norway Michigan. Maby that is your grandfather? He is from Korsnäs
And August is arriving to the USA on aug 21 1911. He is coming to New York on the ship Philadelphia from Southampton . He is 21 years old and he is going to Brother , Brother in Law+ friends. Edward Branback in Michigan
