Ashore where Hans and Peder might have
landed 270 years ago
270 years ago came with a Norwegian fishing boat two Dutch brothers Peder Dycke and Hans Wilker.
They were good fishermen and soon got jobs at Swedish fishing boats.
After a couple of years they had resources to build two small houses one for each brother.
They found a place at a small island Årholmen (Oar island) in the Skagerrak.
The two Dutch brothers probably approach their new place by rowing there.
Brother Bengt and myself are related to Peder and Hans.
Wi will follow their track and also row there with the Tehri Saiman and get the feeling of being close to our ascendant relatives.
