ArchivesRe: surname Rambo
in reply to a message by Rick J Rambo
Dear Rick,
Stumbling upon your message, I must say that you are only partly correct in your explanation. Peter Gunnarson did come to America from Sweden, but did not carry the name Rambo when leaving Sweden. The source of the Rambo name is Peter Gunnarson's geopraphical origin in Sweden. Being from Gothenburg, and more specifically the island Hisingen, he lived close by a small mountain called Ramberget. This mountain, on which he grew his apples, was his source of inspiration, when deciding to adopt a new name in America.
Best regards
