Mats!
You found the right people on Emibas. I knew about Clara Olivia's sisters, Mathilda Maria and Sofia Charlotta and their emigration in 1880 from looking at the Hfl. I suspected the sisters had gone to Chicago and the rest followed a couple years later.
Thank you very much for the death index record for Clara Oliva. With the birth date matching exactly, I think I can put to rest any doubts that she and Klara Olivia Karlsdotter are one and the same.
I will see what I can do regarding proving a connection between Clara Olivia and the Mathilda Nelson you found in the 1900 census. Perhaps my mother-in-law can recall a great-aunt Mathilda in Chicago or the names of her mother's cousins. But, I must say the census data seems to match very nicely indeed.
