I am also a decentant of Anreaus Anderson Quist son of Anders Lax of Skaraborg lan. Sweden. I have found several people with the last name of Lax in that area of Sweden most of them have the first name of Anders or Andreas. They all seem to have been born between 1780 and 1820. Perhaps they belonged to an ethinc group that did not use patrinimics. They could have moved into the area and been assimilated over the 40 year period.
