The Anna 

The ship that went down with Anton Hokanson's father, Hakan Nilsson. (Hakan's last name is Nilsson because he is the son of Nils, and Anton's last name is Hokanson [Americanized] because he is the son of Hakan). We used to think the ship pictured above was named, "The Viking," because that is the name Anton painted on the miniature ship he made for grandson, William Joel Hokanson. He also nicknamed this grandson, "The Viking." But we have recently learned that the ship that went down was called, "The Anna." Thanks go to Marie Hokanson Green for this information.
