The Swedish name of your Turnquist, should probably be CARL PETTER TÖRNQVIST (as the name Törnqvist sounds like Turnquist in Swedish...), a rather common namne in Sweden at the time. You should look for the date of birth, and if there exists some letters to him from Sweden from relatives.
Otherwise it is nearly impossible to trace him...

Hello Roger
 
I am interesting to know more about your relatives August Tornkvist that came from the parish of Ramsberg and his whife Karolina Kristina Persdotter from Vasselhyttan, Lindesbergs parish.
Do you know if he had another last name before he emigrates?  
Do you know which year they depart?  
I have done a lot of research of all person’s in those parish, and have also map out all emigration from Ramsberg, Lindesberg, Guldsmedshyttan, Näsby and Fellingsbro parish, whereabouts people come from and their destination in America, but I cant find him.
Maybe I can help you if you can give me more information.
 
Best regards
Gunilla Didriksson
