Hi Dan:
You can see about the story about Nil Larrson Frande (Friend) at http://www.colonialswedes.org/Forefathers/Friend.htmlhttp://www.colonialswedes.org/Forefathers/Friend.html
When it comes to the Capt. Nicholas Friend it became more and more fictious, rather than the full truth.The paper I received from someone about this Capt. Nicholas showed it is ENGLISH but the story it half truth.Also the information in the Indian Blood by Evelyn Olsen it half truth.She had whatever resources that was available to her at the time she was writing the book.
This Friend family line are Swedes not English.There are those who have researched these lines to the FAMOUS Nils Larsson Frande (Friend).
Friend Family Association of America probably could help with your research.Contact the Librarian Ina Hicks at [email protected] have their own web site also at http://www.friendfamilyassociation.orghttp://www.friendfamilyassociation.org
