Charles W. Roback

Outstanding loans of Falenius defaulted and it was then learned that that guarantor was fictitious and likely the local name for a wooden sculpture that served as a poor man's box at the church in Döderhult parish.

[2] Carl Johan Fallenius arrived in America in the 1840s and appears to have first worked in Baltimore under the name William Williamson aka Billy the Swede.

Charles W. Roback was born on 22 May 1811 in Fallebo, Kristdala parish, Kalmar län, and baptized Carl Johan Nilsson.

On 19 June 1833, he married Greta Cajsa Nilsdotter (1813-1871) in Målilla parish, Kalmar län and they had two sons: Nils Johan August (1834-1845) and Karl Wilhelm (1839-1927).

Roback's son Carl Wilhelm Fallenius is said to have visited his father in the US and received financial help to buy a farm at home in Sweden.
