Chris, Amazing results! I started by trying to find if there was a connection between the Liljemarks in Värmland that I know I am related to and the ones in Lillhärdal. I have found that the male lines of both go back to Sunne parish in Värmland. No confirmed links, but they are living fairly close to each other in the earliest on-line records.
Incidentally, ADOnline now has records from Jämtland. While following the Liljemarks in the Församlingsbok for 1923-33, I came across the note saying Greta went to Parkside. Very interesting to me, since that is where my mother's parents (also from Lillhärdal) settled.
Following up on the info you provided, I found the relevant Kerstin Persdotter and wouldn't you know -- 2nd cousin 3 times removed. They would have been travelling to her brother Hans Persson, whose farm was adjacent to my grandparents' farm. The local history book for Parkside mentions Per (Pete) Eriksson - he emigrated 1914 - but no mention of Greta.
