But he has done extremely well, and accepted every challenge. He is in a pri- vate school, and it is a beautiful school close to a forest. There are lots of private schools to choose from nowadays in Sweden, and it does not cost anything. They have limited space but we were lucky to be able to get him in. Most of all, he is very happy there. Our daughter Eva had a wonderful study abroad experience this past spring in Granada, Spain, and she would really like to go back after she graduates from Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio, this spring. Our oldest son, Kristoffer will graduate early December from KTH (The Royal Institute of Technology), in Stockholm, with a degree in Computer Science. Needless to say, we are very proud of all our children.

  • Peter Stebbins Craig 1928-2009
    Swedish Colonial News Volume 4, Number 1 Winter 2010 Preserving the legacy of the New Sweden Colony in America Peter Stebbins Craig 1928-2009 Dr. Peter Stebbins Craig, the Swedish Colonial Society’s world- renowned historian and genealogist who specialized in 17th century Swedish and Finnish immigrants to the Delaware River Valley, died Thanksgiving Day, November 28, 2009 following a brief illness. Peter passed away peacefully surrounded by family. Memorial services were held at Gloria Dei (Old Swedes’) Church in Philadelphia and at the Friends Meeting in Washington, DC, where he was a member. Dr. Craig’s death came just four weeks after the Swedish Colonial Society recognized him with its Lifetime Achievement Award for his work researching the colonial experience of the set- tlers and their descendants into the late 18th century. He wrote over 100 articles and books on these settlers. Dr. Craig first attracted attention among genealogists for his breakthrough article, “The Yocums of Aronameck,” published in 1983. He was urged to expand his focus and look at all the New Sweden families. His book, The 1693 Census of the Swedes on the Delaware (1993), is the definitive work presenting family histories of 195 households then belonging to the Swedish Lutheran churches on the Delaware. His subsequent book, The 1671 Census of the Delaware (1999), identifies and discusses each of the residents on both sides of the Delaware River in the first English census of the Delaware. A major- ity of the residents were still Swedes and Finns. Dr. Craig’s eight-part continued on page 2 Swedish Colonial Society’s Centennial Jubilee Philadelphia – October 23-25, 2009 Months and months of planning became realities the Governor Sally Bridwell was the Jubilee Registrar, sending weekend of October 23-25, 2009.
