[edit] Birthplace

Most ice hockey sources say Johan was born in Leksand. However a genealogy source (CD-ROM Sveriges Befolkning 1980, ISBN 91-87676-37-0) says that he, his four brothers, and probably his father were born in Boo, a part of Nacka (in the Uppland province and the Stockholm County). All brothers were born between 1968 and 1974. However, the same source says that in 1980 they (already) had moved to Siljansnäs, a part of the Leksand Municipality.

The Swedish Wikipedia article sv:Johan Hedberg also states Nacka, but does not include any reference of it. The SIHA page here has a blank Place of Birth.

Does anyone know of another non-hockey source to confirm either Boo, Nacka or Leksand as the correct birthplace? --Bamsefar75 (talk) 18:36, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
