Tack Helene! Det kan stämma mycket bra! I svaret från Selma Hultgrens (Kikeby) son: Yes this must be the real Hulda. Your great grandmother was trained in clock making and repair. She learned her trade working on the bench with her father in Sweden. I remember of talk of an island in northern Sweden with a name similar to the one mentioned. I also had a [great, I guess] uncle named Holmes. They were Morber Holmes and Mooster Olga to me. They moved to California in the mid twenties. Perhaps Mooster Olga was one of Hulda's sisters? There was a raft of Swedes that migrated to the Midwest in the 19th century. Many of them moved to La Port, Indiana.
