Eckland is PROBABLY americanized from swedish Eklund.

Sorry, I meant to write Thelma Eckland.
His mother’s maiden name Goodall is English. His paternal grandmother was born Thelma Eckladn in Nebraska; her paternal grandparents were Swedish.
Presumably his paternal grandfather was Italian, making him 1/4.
