Biography
Family tradition tells that Harvey was born in Sweden. However, his Department of Commerce Seaman's "Continuous Discharge Book" says that he was an American citizen born in Wisconsin.
As an adult his home address was 806 3rd St. in Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin.
He was a sailor on the Great Lakes and had a Captain's License.
He DJ'd a Swedish radio show in Door County, Wisconsin. Bob Ostrand had vinyl records of some of these shows.
Harvey's wife Eleanor died young from cancer, possibly at age 37.
In the 1940 census, the 48-year-old widower Harvey appears in a household in Sturgeon Bay with just his son Robert. [1]
