Titel: Mystery about a location and family name.

I've got two mysteries that I need help with. Firstly, I've got a household record showing Sven Andersson's daughter Emelia Maria born Oct 21, 186_ in ______. I can't figure out the local.
 
Secondly, Maria left for America in April/May (actually, I believe the date is on that doc). I found her in America married to Fred (Frithiof) CARLSON. On the passage over she is listed as Maria BERGSTROM. On her marriage record and death record she is listed as Maria/Mary (middle name Emma on death cert) BERGSTROM. Her father's name is mentioned as Sven ANDERSON (mother Anna). Her sister came over later and her name is given as Selma Albertina BERGSTROM. As noted on the husforhor, there is no mention anywhere of BERGSTROM. I have given you minimal amount of information on her; suffice it to say, I have much more proving all the above. So.....
Question: how did she and her sister end up with that surname? Perhaps Sven Anderson is a step father? Does the husforhor give any clues?
