In 1930, Hilda is still living. She is 62 and no longer working. Her son William is 20 years old and working as a clerk in a steel foundry. Also living with her are her three daughters.

Hi Freda, I did find the same passenger record on Ancestry for Beda Olivia and Valborg Margaret Tornbom. They traveled on the Stavangerfjord and arrived in the port of New York on 20 December 1921. Beda was 25 years old at the time. Valborg was 17 years. They were coming from “kunggt.5.Kristineholm” with the destination of Chicago. It is noted that they are sisters. In the 1920 Census, 614 Ewing Avenue, Ward 8, Cook County, Chicago, Illinois, there is this family that looks like it fits: Turnbow, Fritz G. Head of household Age: 45 Immigration: 1905, un-naturalized citizen Born in Sweden Occupation: Steel worker Turnbow, Anna E. Relationship to head of household: wife Age 45 Immigration 1907 Born in Sweden Turnbow, Beda O. Relationship to head of household: daughter Age 23 Immigration 1907 Born in Sweden Occupation: Saleswoman Turnbow, Margaret W.

I did notice though that her place of birth is given as Germany on the 1900 census. Perhaps you could find Richard's father's naturalization papers. Depending on when he filed, they might tell where in Germany Richard's family came from. 1900 Census Brooklyn Ward 32, Kings County, New York 1565 New York Ave Regards, Laura

Hej Pia! I haven't been able to find the family in the census but I did find these two items: Anton Welin registered for the draft in Benton County, Minnesota on September 12, 1918. He gives his address as 430 5th Avenue SE, Saint Cloud, MN and fodd 19 May 1876. He says his occupation is a paving cutter for the Granite city Granite Company in St. Cloud. He lives with his wife Hilda. He was described as tall, medium build, brown eyes and hair. Both Anton and Hilda applied for and became naturalized citizens in Benton County, MN sometime between 1915-1920. (The date of their final papers in the index is listed as 1 Dec 1997 which can't be right!) Regards, Laura

Hasselquist, Signe wife, age 38, 32 years old when married, born in Sweden with both parents born in Sweden, immigrated in 1914, naturalized citizen, occupation none. They have two children, Edwin, age 4 and 4 months born in New York; and Roy 2 months old. Then, in the 1920 Census I found: 1441 Union Street, Dwelling 150, Family 403, District 1103, Brooklyn Assembly District 18, Kings County, New York Nelson, Signe 25 years old, born in Sweden. She is a servant in the household of Robert and Margaret Thedford. Her year of immigration is unclear it could be 1914, but it could also say 1912. In the index, the name was recorded as Wigne Nelson. The Social Security Death Index had the following.

Kjell, Try www.rootsweb.com. The link for US Genweb Archives will take you state links which are then divided by counties. The archives contain documents that people have transcribed and posted. It can be hit or miss-some counties have lots of information, others none. The link for state resources might lead to a library or archive that has free databases or give you ideas for contacts. You also might post a query at www. genforum.com which is similar to this forum. Perhaps you'd find someone working on the same family.

Ingela, Good suggestion and information! I hadn't looked for the father, Per Andersson, since until recently I wasn't even positive of his name. The note image with “Undan” comes from the Genline image 1250.113.55500. I don't have a death record for him. I'll have to see if I can trace him after this point in the husförhör. Regards, Laura

I appreciate the suggestions and the help. The family is the husförhör 1890-1894 thus: Hökare Per Andersson b: 27 April 1833 in Bjuv H. Bothilda Persdotter b: 6 Feb 1836 in Bjuv son Alfons Axel Andrea 2 Oct 65 in Bjuv dotter Hilda Sophia 13 Jan 1872 in Helsingborg Bothilda and her son Alfons came to America together. I did find Alfons in what was referred to as the Register of People leaving Malmöhus län in 1892, as well as his brother Axel Bonde Anderson (b: 27 Feb 1869) who left Sweden in 1888. I haven't found an emigration record for the sister Hilda. I know she came since she is in a picture taken in Illinois, but she either returned to Sweden or died. Bothilda and Alfons are both listed on the manifest of the ship Norge arriving 29th of May 1892 in New York. Imagine my surprise! Per was alive enough to give his consent for his wife to leave. That's a good lead. What years are covered by the Death CD? Could someone look up Per Andersson? Regards (and smiles) Laura

Would you help me with this one? The mother and two children left for America, but where did the father on line one go? And the notes? I was always told that my great great grandfather, Per Andersson, died before they decided to go to America. Thanks, Laura

Hey! I think I found Emma! I wasn't having any luck searching on Svard. I tried searches in the census on Albert with keywords Bayfield and Washburn with no surname. Then, I looked only at the hits that had *gren since you had that as part of the last name. I'm guessing that came from Agnes' Ellis Island manifest (I couldn't read it either!) In the 1930 census, I found: In Bayfield County, Washburn, District 30 Halgren, Albert age 63, head of household, born in Sweden, both parents born in Sweden. He is a merchant with a grocery store and he emigrated in 1891. Emma age 50 wife born in Sweden, both parents born in Sweden She emigrated in 1901 and was 26 years old when married. So, then I looked in the 1920 census and there was: Bayfield County, Washburn Halgren, Albert age 52 born 1889 occupation: grocery store Emma age 41 born 1898 It seems to fit with information you have:place, birth year, emigration year, part of the surname, brother-in-law Albert. I'd feel more certain if I could find Agnes with them. However, she arrived between censuses and in the four years between her arrival in 1916 and the census in 1920, she could have married or moved. The 1910 and 1900 censuses are not indexed on-line so I'm slower paging through those. The town of Washburn is in Bayfield County, Wisconsin. Ashland is in Ashland County and they are neighboring counties. Both sit on a small peninsula that juts into Lake Superior near the Apostle Islands (good kayaking!) It's a beautiful area-wooded and hilly. They get a good amount of snow being at the base of the lake. This is the link to the Bayfield Rootsweb site. It might have information to help you. http://www.rootsweb.com/~wibayfie/contents.html If you write the librarian with a query, she might be able to help with local resources. Some local libraries keep genealogy information. Washburn Library 307 Washington Avenue Washburn, WI. 54891 715-373-6172 This link had the historical societies for the area: http://www.rootsweb.com/~wibayfie/histsoc.html I'll have to try posting images later. It does get complicated! Regards, Laura

Hi Barbro, What lovely pictures! I think I'd say daughters as well. I thought perhaps it was an older daughter that had already left home at the time of the 1920 census. However, I found the family in the 1910 census and there isn't another living daughter. Perhaps Maria had a child after Lars that for whatever reason isn't listed in the 1930 census. 1910 Mellen Township, Menominee County, Michigan Blomquist, Jonas Head age 39, married 9 years Maria Wife age 29, married 9 years, mother of three children, two living Maria dau. age 7 Helmer ? son age 2 I tried to insert the image of the censuses into my reply with no luck. If you can help me with that, I'll post the images. I did check the marriage date for Jon Emil and had written them correctly. My mistake of not reading closely enough. As for Emma, Albert and Agnes: do you know if they were in the town of Washburn in Bayfield County or somewhere in the county of Washburn? Regards, Laura

Hi Carin, Truth be told, I don't know that I could answer the same kind of numbering question if was asked about the US census. Thank you for the dates and Anders' birth record. I knew Anders had been the teacher in Filborna. His daughter, Johanna, lived with my grandparents after her husband died. After Anders retired from teaching, he had some kind of business preparing documents for people. Older family members talked about their lovely penmanship. I do have a rather entertaining letter Johanna wrote to her daughter explaining how to cook beans- bruna bönor. There are some questions, I suppose, you can only ask your mother :-) Regards, Laura

I am trying to make friends with genline but have a very slow internet connection. One of the household examinations indicates that Maria moved from Filborna No.18 to No. 9. in 1849 when she married Anders. What do the numbers correspond to? Thank you, again. Laura

Hi Carin, Thank you for the informaiton! I think it is highly probable that is my Maria. The date and places are correct. I don't know if there is any way to prove it. Maria's death certificate was filled out by her granddaughter. Both her Mother and Father are listed as Unknown. Maria was living with her daughter, Ingrid, when she died. Ingrid died three weeks after her mother. I did not know that Maria and Anders had two daughters named Johanna Maria's. The second Johanna Marie died 30 Apr 1954 in Oak Park, IL (near Chicago). Are you connected with this family? I have some details of Anders and Maria's children, obits and the like, if you're interested. Regards, Laura B.

Dear Judy, Thank you so much for your help! The 1890 census record confirms what I had been thinking. Alfons and his brother's death certificates differ on the names they give for their parents. The brother's death certificate says the father was named P. Aderson and the mother Battila Pearson. The census and birth record make me think that the brother's death certificate is more accurate than Alfons's. It'll sure help to have one name to search with rather than all of the possible combinations I've been trying! :-) What a big help! Thanks! Laura

Hi, I am looking for information about Bothilda Anderson and her husband Peter. Bothilda was born 6 Feb 1835 in Helsingborg and died 4 Mar 1919 in Chicago, IL. Bothilda came to the US from Helsingborg with her son Alfons Axel Anderson Bonde(b:10 Mar 1865) in 1892 according to his naturalization papers. Bothilda's other son Axel Anderson Bonde (b:1868), a watchmaker, emmigrated to the US about 1888. There was also a daughter Hilda for whom I have no information. Peter, according to family stories, was born about 1833 in Helsingborg and died about 1877 in Sweden. I don't know if Peter's surname was Bonde. The only documented reference I have of Peter is from Chicago City Directories which list Bothilda, widow of Peter. The sons appear in US records both as Alfons Anderson, Alfons Bonde and Alfons Anderson Bonde. Regards, Laura B.
