I searched the records and I found your grandmother in Stockholm, but there is another sister:

Hilma Alfrida still lived with her mother in Stockholm 1900.
There is a Fanny Hildegard born 05/21/1870 in Häradshammar. Her parents name was: Crown forest keeper Bror Gustaf Johansson and his wife Johanna Hildegard Engstrand I can't find her at Swedish Census 1890.
In the parish register for Häradshammar was the forest keeper and his wife, Edla Johanna's parents too. She was born 09/28/1859. I don't know who Hilma Maria Ekman was.
