HELP! I have tried in ceveral forums many times without luck. I’m searching decendants of my mother’s cousin Elisabeth born as Lisa Kristina Hanson in 1891 from Berg parish, Jamtland, Sweden and her husband John Anderson from Västra Emtervik in Värmland.
Elisabeth went to USA, Seattle in 1910.She went by the port of Trondheim, with destination Seattle.She maybe met her husband in Seattle ( or on the ship?)
In 1921 they visited Sweden with their sons Sigurd 7y and Hugo 4y and I find out by Ellis Island site that Elisabeth and the boys returned to USA in 1921, 18 july.
I guess her husband John had returned earlier. His adress in 1921 was (from Ellis Island site):
119 East Lake Ave, Seattle, Washington.
The oldest son was born in Canada, but the younger one was born in US -according to Ellis Island site. I remember from my childhood that grandmother said that Elisabeth and her family had moved around, but I think they settled down in Seattle. But I'm not sure.
They also got a daughter,Agnes, but I don't know exact year-but it must have been in the 1920:s after that the family returned to USA.
Does anybody know if there still are living descendants in Seattle? Or somewhere else in North America?
