Anders Christoffersson ALG OR ELG
On the record that Albert J. Elggren received from Sweden the birth date of Anders was 6 mar 1768 and not 4 July 1766 as Adolph states in the Logan Temple records The Logan Temple Records show that Adolph Frederick Elggren acted as proxy for Baptism and Endowment for Andrew Frederick Elg. Althougth our record show that it is Anders Christoffersson Alg or Elg and the date of birth are different the death date is the same and we feel they are the same person. The records states that Adolph was the grandson of Andrew Frederick Elg. The Logan Temple Records show the Adolph and Johanna were proxies for Andrew and Lisa and states that Adolph was grandson to Andrew and Johanna was grand daughter-in-law to Lisa. It is believed that Andrew and Anders was interchangeable.
Johanna Christina Samuelson Elggren acted as proxy for Lisa Person for both baptism and the endowment and the records states that Johanna is Lisa's grand daughter-in-law.
