My great-grandmother's sister Juliet Dahlquist was a member of the Swedish Choral Club of Chicago, Illinois. In 1920, she traveled to Norway, Sweden, and Denmark with the club for a concert tour. She left from New York on 15 May 1920 on the Drottingholm. She sailed home on 18 August 1920 from Liverpool, England on the Baltic, and arrived in New York on 27 August 1920.

ReplyDeleteI have a journal you'd be interested in, I think.

My great grandmother and great grandfather Carl William Engdahl and Mildred Engdahl were also members of the club and went on this trip. I've found their passport applications as well!
ReplyDeleteI haven't got a response from the blog post author so since it's relevant, this journal I found in goodwill about 6 months before your comment has your great-grandparents signatures in it. Presumably as part of the roster of people on that trip. Here's a link to that page. Email me if you want the book or whatever. I presumed the blog author would be interested in it since it's her grandmother's but like, never got a response, and forgot to check back to this page for half a decade... https://photos.app.goo.gl/Dr4schQhW1EtfGLW9
