This blog shares the journals of my great-grandfather Nelson Hjalmar Lindgren (b. 14 Oct 1884 Sweden d. 3 Mar 1976 E. Prov, RI). These writings give a window into a fascinating man and give the story of a remarkable life of a first generation Swedish-American. The daily entries of Nil's journals from 50 years ago will give our family a greater connection to our past.

60°/72° 29.98 Bar.
Misting this morning and didn’t clear up till near noon. Dick had to work but Evelyn didn’t. Gail, Evelyn and I took a ride around and shopped. Home and I edged the trees and the rose bush.
Sun was out in afternoon. Cool this morning.
Went to Lins and picked up our checks. Talked with Mr. Fredericks.
Picked up Linda at work. Linda and her boyfriend Reginald went to see “Exodus.” I took Evelyn and Gail to Park Theatre to see Marlon Brando “One Eyed Jacks.”
Tillie and I stayed home. Dick came home at 10.00.
