Hello Stig, I will give you the information that I have for Mr. Sanders. Father - Alexander Lindberg (also Alexander Christoffersson) b.25 Sep 1823 (date on the gravestone) d. 07 Oct 1904 in Stromsburg, Polk, Nebraska USA. Mother - Gustava Abrahamsdotter b. 15 Jul 1828 Blidsberg d. 02 Nov 1901 in Stromsburg, Polk, Nebraska USA. I believe the father and mother left Sweden in 1885. They went to Hackberry, Polk, Nebraska USA and are listed there in the 1900 USA Census. Mr. Sanders (also Klas Johan Alexandersson, John Sanders, Clause J Sanders) b. 17 Jun 1854. He left Sweden in 1885. I believe he went first to Cranston, Rhode Island, USA. He is listed there in the 1900 USA Census. He is living with Gust Orlander on Magnolia Street. He is using the name Clas Linberg. I believe he moved to Hackberry in 1900 because he is also listing in the 1900 USA Census in Hackberry. His occupation is a farmer. His father and mother live with him. He has the name John Sanders. The record indicates he has been married 13 years, but there is no wife with him. His father is listed as Alex Sanders and his mother is listed as Gustava Sanders. I believe his wife Anna Charlotta Örn came to the USA for a short time. In the Sweden household records for Dalum 1911 - 1933 on Page 18 and Page 27 there is a note - 30 Nov 1916 to America. I could find no travel records. Perhaps you can locate something? She returned to Sweden and died in Sweden in 1945. Clas is not listed in the 1910 or 1920 USA Census. He died 12 Jun 1922. Clas, father and mother are burried in Stromberg Cemetery Polk Nebraska. Here is the link to the grave record: findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=30001385 Father - findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=30001362 Mother - http://findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=30001333 regards Hiel Lindquist

Stig,
Thank you for the information. It is strange that Klas married Anna Charlotta 1884-12-27 and then went to the USA with his parents in 1885, just before his daughter was born.
I was able to find the census record for Klas in the USA once I knew he changed his name to Sanders.
regards

Hej Arne,
Thank you again for the information concerning Klaus Johan Lindberg. I was able to find information for him in Nebraska, USA. Now I only need to find Sven Oscar Örn, b. 22 Dec 1854 i Dalum. He left for Americka in 1880. Would you look up on EMIHAMM / EMIBAS ?
Med venlig hilsen
Hiel Lindquist (Sorry I do not write in Swedish. I only know English and German)
Here is the information for Klaus:
Klaus and parents Alexander Lindberg and Gustava Abrahamsdotter arrived in Stromsburg, Polk, Nebraska USA. Gustava died on 02 Nov 1901 and is buried in Stromsburg Cemetery. Alexander died on 07 Oct 1904. He is buried in Stromsburg Cemetery.
Klaus changed his name to John Sanders. His record can be found in the USA 1900 census, living in Hackberry, Polk, Nebraska. He died on 12 Jun 1922. He is also buried in Stromsburg Cemetery. He had no wife in the USA. His name on the cemetery record is Clause J. Sanders. However, the USA records indicate that he was married. His wife in Sweden, Anna Charlotta Örn had one daughter, Hildur Emila Lindberg b. Blidsberg 27 Sep 1885.

Hello Arne,
Thank you so much for the information! I will certainly do some more research. I want to find out what happened to Klas Johan. He seems to have left his wife and daughter and disappeared. I will do some more research and will send an update on what I can find.
kind regards

Hello Stig,
Thank you for the information. I would like to know further information concerning Sven Oscar Örn. Do you have the immigration CD? I would like to know his destination in Amerika.
Also, his sister, Anna Charlotta Örn (b. 20 Jul 1856 i Dalum) went to Amerika, in 1916. Do you have any information for her?
I have not been able to locate any records for them in the United States. If I know their destination I may have be able to locate additional records here.
kind regards

I am searching for immigration information for relatives that left for America from Dalum. Would someone search the immigration records for
Anna Charlotta Örn b. Dalum 20 Jul 1856. She is in Dalum 1900 - 1910 Page 15 line 24. Then Dalum 1911 - 1933 Page 18 and Page 27. Left for American 30 Nov 1916. Last name may be Lindberg on immigration records.
Klas Johan Lindberg b. Blidsberg 17 Jun 1854. Married Anna Charlotta Örn in Dalum on 27 Dec 1884. Klas and Anna had a daughter, Hildur Emilia Lindberg b. 27 Sep 1885 in Blidsberg. Therefore, Klas may have left for America from Blidsberg in 1885. I believe he is living in Cranston, Rhode Island, USA in 1900.
Thanks in advance.

Thank you Katrin, for your help with the translation. I had a good understanding of the letter from the translation that I did, but it is nice to fill in all the words that I had missed.
The person that wrote the letter was Gustaf Björkman, my grandfather's svåge. Gustaf was a soldier in Sweden 1884 - 1902. I received the letters some time ago from another member of my family. It was fun to read the letters and see a bit of personality of some ancestors that I never met. In each letter Gustaf complains about conditions during the war, but is quick to say they had it pretty good in Sweden compared to others.
Gustaf wrote several times with an invitation for my grandfather to return to Sweden for a visit, or even to live. Sad that he never made the trip and he passed away a few years after these letters. My grandfather must have cherished the letters as they were all carefully preserved.
kind regards

Thank you for your help. Now the letter now makes sense to me. He used the letters to start the fire in the stove. My grandfather (he received the letter here in the USA) must have collected stamps. The Swedish stamps on the letters were removed. My grandfather must have asked if his brother-in-law in Sweden (who wrote the letter) had any used stamps.
The letter was a bit difficult for me to translate as it was 2 pages long with only 2 or 3 sentences. As we say in English, a run-on sentence.
His sister, Tilda, lived in Skogsbo, a village in Södra Ving.

Would someone assist me in the translation of an old letter? Attached are images of the letter sections of 2 pages. I need help with the lines after he writes about it has been 42 years and before the part where he says that he notices that a letter was written to Tilda in Skogsbo. The letter was written in 1946, so I believe it is something about ration stamps. Translate programs are ok, but I believe there is also some colloquial words in this section. There are a couple of other places in letters where I need help, but I wanted to make sure this was the correct topic area for translations. Thanks Hiel

Hej Börje Carlsson,
Thank you so much for the picture and for the story about the Blads. It is sad that the tombstone is not maintained. Do you have a picture of it or the cemetery?
Your morfars farfar (Klas Viktor) is my great grand uncle, Clas Jönasson. Are you related to his son Frans Levin Classon, Johan Emil Classon or one of the other children? I do not have a lot of information on the family.
I have quite a lot of information concerning the family of Wilhelm Jönasson that came to America (and August Lind and his family, of course). Descendants of the Sjöberg family (Wilhelm descendants) now live in the Seattle, Washington area.
August Lind's son Carl (my grandfather) came to America about the same time as his cousins the Strömbergs and Sjöbergs in 1896. Carl had six children here in the USA. They have all passed away now, but there are many of the grandchildren and their families that live here in New Hampshire. I am the only one that is interested in genealogy.
Let me know if you would like more information. You can send me a message to my email address.
regards

Thank you so much for your help. The Strömberg family were my grandfather's cousins and now I am able to solve the mystery of how he came to live in Concord, NH USA. The dates you supplied show that my grandfather traveled with them.
I am not surprised that Hilda Sofia Strömberg did not marry. Many in her family remainded single and had no children.

Thank you for the information. The family lived in Timmele (Timmelhed). Yes, the records you found are for the 4 Stromberg brothers. Is there any information on their sister Emma Gustafia Stromberg (left Sweden about 26 Apr 1897 returned to Sweden 28 Aug 1909)?
Thank You.

Hello,
I have questions for the family of Anders Frederik Blad b. Timmele 17 Oct 1840. The family is in Timmele 1888-1899 page 106, page 109. Timmele 1900-1919 page 164. Timmele 1920-1937 page 161.
My question concerns the children that came to America.
Karl Edmund Stromberg in 28 July 1893
Emma Gustafia Stromberg in 26 Apr 1897 returned to Sweden 28 Aug 1909
Johan Ludwig Stromberg in 27 Sep 1895
Frans Oskar Stromberg in 28 Apr 1899
August Frits Stromberg (or Frits August ?) in 8 May 1903
I do not have access to the emibas CD and would like to know if someone would provide information on when they left Sweden, ship and destination. Also, were they traveling alone or with someone? ALso, did Karl Stromberg return to Sweden, perhaps with his family?
Thank you in advance for helping. Sorry to write in English.

Hej,
I am searching for the birth record for Anders Lind / August Jönasson. His death is recorded in Timmele on 29 Dec 1872. From his death record, his birth is calculated as 08 Apr 1835. He is listed with his wife in the Blidsberg Church book 1847 - 1862 on page 250, which shows his birth date as 08 Apr 1835 in Blidsberg. However, I have found the record for his father and mother and the family in the Blidsberg Church book 1840 - 1852 GID 578.8.89300 (sorry, I did not record the page number when I copied the record). On this record is shows his birth date in Timmele on 08 Apr 1835.
I searched the birth records in Timmele and Blidsberg for his birth record, but I could not find it. I also searched for his birth record in his mother and fathers parish, but it is not there. Is it possible that his birth was not recorded? or have I missed something?
Thanks
Hiel Lindquist

« skrivet: 2011-06-21, 13:50 »
Yes, but I believe the the note in the birth of Hanna born 1875-05-21 in Emmislöv parish indicate that Ola Håkansson is the father of 4 and married 5 years? It is possible that Amanda was his child, born before Ola and Bengt were married.

« skrivet: 2011-06-21, 00:08 »
Thank you for the information. That certainly looks like Amanda.
She is not a direct relative of mine, but if I can track down my cousins in Connecticut, the information you found will certain be of interest to them. Amanda and Nils had a son, Julius, and he had 2 daughters, Doris Olson, b. abt 1918 and a Vernon Olson b. abt 1923, in Naugatuck, New Haven, Connecticut, USA. I find them in the 1930 USA census but can find no information after that. Maybe I will have to travel to New Haven and go through the original records.
Thanks again.
Hiel Lindquist
PS: Thank you, also, to everyone on this forum. I certainly enjoy reading about the ongoing genealogy search of other people and continue to learn about new information sources and Swedish history from this forum.

Thank you Bo and Judy for your help.
I continue to work on other branches of my family and occasionally come up with some more clues like the last one about Ola Olsson. I guess I will never be sure of the father for Nils Olsson.
I did find that the name of the woman that Nils married over here in the USA was Amanda Olsson, so it is possible that there is more than 1 error on the marriage record entry in Vermont where they were married. She was born in Sweden in 1867, father's name Olla Olsson and mother's name Bell(or Beel?) Hawkins. I do not know the perish where she came from in Sweden and her mother's name is suspect as it doesn't appear to be of Swedish origin. Amanda came to the USA in 1889. Is it possible to seach for an Amanda Olsdotter, emigrating to the USA in 1889 on the EMIBAS data base?

Hello,
In continuation of my search for Nils Olson, born 1862-09-15 in Hjärsås. I found an image of the actual copy of his marriage record in Vermont, USA, to Amanda Oleson. On the record, entered incorrectly in the place of the birth location for his father, is entered Olla Oleson. His mother's name is listed as Christina Johnson, which of course in Sweden is Kjerstin Jönsdotter.
As Bo Johansson found earlier that Nils' birth record of 15 Sep 1862 mentions no father, it is possible that his father's name was Olla Oleson, or some variation. Is there a name such as this in the Hjärsås church records in the 1862 time period?
Also, is there a listing in the emmigration records for Nils Olson? He came to the USA around 1886, probably Vermont.
Thank you for any help you can provide.
Regards
Hiel Lindquist

Thank you, BO, for all the great information on Nils Olson. I had not seen the 1876-1885 record, only the final record before my grandmother Hilda leaves for USA. I had missed Nils Olson, so it shows how important it is to check each available record.
Now I have some more searching to do for some relatives over here in Vermont.
Was there any record for Nils Olson on EMIBAS or on other immigration databases?
Thanks

Hello again,
First, thank you for all the previous assistance. I thought I had completed my family search, but today I found an obituary for my grandmother, Hilda Nelson (Hilda Nilsdotter, b. 18 Jan 1879 in Hjärså, Kristianstad, Sweden, d. 01 Mar 1934 in New Hampshire, USA). Hilda's parents were Kersti Jönsdotter b. 13 Apr 1837 in Hjärså and Nils Nilsson b. 12 Nov 1837 in Knislinge.
The Obituary mentioned a brother living in Rutland, Vermont. The brother's names was Nils Olson. The brother in Vermont would explain why my grandmother Hilda immigrated to Vermont when she left Sweden 19 Apr 1898. I searched the USA Census and there is only 1 Nils Olson in Rutland, Vermont within the date range (name - Nils W. Olson). His birth date is abt Sep 1862 and he immigrated to the USA abt 1886. He died in Vermont 27 Mar 1941 and his death record indicates his father's name was also Nils Olson and his mother's name was Christina Johnson (I believe this would be Kersti Jönsdotter ?).
He married in Vermont 4 Jul 1889 Amanda ? b. abt Jan 1867 who had immigrated to USA abt 1889.
If the census information for the Nils Olson here in the USA is correct, then Kersti Jönsdotter's marriage to Nils Nilsson was her second marriage and her first husband was Nils Olson, married some time before 1875. I would like to know if this is correct, and any other information about her prior family. I know the parish records were destroyed in a fire, so this may not be possible.
Also, I would like to know any immigration information for Nils as it should show that he came from the Hjärså area.
Thank you in advance for any help.
Regards
Hiel Lindquist

Thank you for answering my note. I think you are correct in that our immediate relatives are not related. There are so few references to Hjärsås that it is worth checking when one appears.
I also have a relative, Sven Nilsson, but he was born in 1876 and he remained in Sweden. It is too bad the records were destroyed in the fire as there is no way to check on earlier relatives. From the record, there were 10 of my relatives and left Hjärsås for America.
Here is what I have for my relatives from that area:
Jöns Carlsson b:17 Nov 1800 Hjärså d: 06 Apr 1871 Hjärså
wife: Anna Larsdotter b:10 Nov 1797 Onslunda d: 16 Feb 1869 Hjärså

husband Nils Nilsson b: 12 Nov 1837 Knislinge d: 05 Jul 1887 Hjärså
children: Sven Nilsson b: 14 Aug 1876 Hjärså
Hilda Nilsdotter (Nelson) b: 18 Jan 1879 d: 01 Mar 1934 NH USA

wife Hanna Niklasdotter b: 17 Feb 1828 Örkened d: NH,USA

Johannes Carlsson b: 24 May 1858 Hjärså d: 1939 Maine, USA
Lissa Carlsdotter b: 19 Jan 1860 Hjärså d: USA
Ingrid Carlsdotter b: 18 Jun 1862 Örkened d: USA
Anna Carlsdotter b: 05 Jan 1866 Örkened d: NH, USA
daughter Alma Nelson b:09 Feb 1889 Hjärså d:1918 WashingtonDC
(father not known)
Martin Carlsson b: 14 Mar 1871 Hjärså d: NH, USA
Good luck on your search.

Hello Mary Nelson Keithahn,
My name is Hiel Lindquist and Bo assisted me with some records from Hjärsås earlier (you can search on my name and see the information).
I wonder if there is a relation between our families? Hjärsås is such a small village, but then again, the name Nils and Nilsson are quite common. Here is what I have and it would be great if you could compare to what you have.
My grandmother was Hilda Nelson (Nilsdotter), born 18 Jan 1879 in Hjärsås and she left for Vermont, USA in 1889. Her father was Nils Nilsson, born 12 Nov 1837 and died in Hjärsås 05 Jul 1887. Her mother was Kersti Jönsdotter born in Hjärsås 13 Apr 1837.
I have notes from the records that Nils Nilsson was in Germany 1868-1875. Also I received a note that he have many other children, but I could not find any records of that (other than the info below).
In addition to Hilda, Kersti Jönsdotter and Nils Nilsson had a son Sven, born in Hjärsås 14 Aug 1876. The records have another son living with them, Nils Nilsson born 15 Sep 1862. This is not Kersti's son as she was married 29 Oct 1875. In your note, you indicated that your ancestor, Anders had a younger brother?
I noticed that Bo indicated that your Nilsson lived at No 9 Hjärsås. My families lived at No 4, No 5, No 11 and No 12. I also have a note about a Lars Nilsson, but little information. I have other relatives, all from Hjärsås, with the names Jönsson, Carlsson, Larsson.
Let me know one way or the other if you see a link to any of these people. Since many of the Hjärsås church records were destroyed it has been difficult finding information.
kind regards
Hiel Lindquist

Thank you for finding the information. I think you have confirmed that Elizabet and Gustaf had no children if Elizabet's niece moves into the farm of Elizabet and Gustaf.
Would the children of Frans Gustaf Samuelsson and Anna Matilda Lind take the last name Samuelson? I believe they were born around the time that family names were used as last names in place of the father's first name + sson or +sdotter (late 1880's - 1890's).

Hello,
I am continuing my search of Lotta Svensdotter and her family. She was married to Anders Lind (August Jönasson). When Anders died, Lotta married Andreas Petterson. Lotta and Anders had 3 children that lived to adults, Anna Mathilda Lind, Elizabeth Lind, and Carl Johan Lind. As stated earlier, they can be found in Södra Ving A1:8 p 407, GID 1949.18.54100.
I have all the genealogy information on Carl Johan and his family (he was my grandfather and he left Sweden for the USA 17 Mar 1896).
Anna Mathilda (born 09 Dec 1864 in Timmele, died 26 Aug 1947) married Frans Gustaf Samuelsson 23 Jun 1886 in Södra Ving (born 01 Mar 1862, died 05 Feb 1942) and they had at least 1 daughter, Esther Olivia Samuelsson (born 20 Nov 1887 in Södra Ving, died ?) They also had another daughter that died at birth 02 Dec 1892.
Elizabeth (born 18 Apr 1867 in Blidsberg, died ?) married Gustaf Robert Björkman (who, I believe was a soldier, given name Gustaf Andersson born 26 Mar 1865 in Dalum, died 05 Mar 1947), 16 Apr 1887 in Södra Ving. I did a search of the church records in Södra Ving, but could not find any children.
I am searching for additional information for the families of Anna and Elizabeth and any decendants. Any information that can be provided would be of interest to me.
Thanks for all the earlier help.

Hello,
I have a question on the cause of death on a death record. I have searched the websites of old disease terms and have not been able to find anything that looks similar to the words on this record.
The record is for my great grandfather, who died quite young.
GID 100015.95.12600 Anders Lind (August Jönasson) died 28 Dec 1872 in Blidsberg. It looks like some type of cancer, but I am not sure.

OK, maybe I figured this out. GID 1661.9.16600 shows the mystery children listed under Andreas Jönsson and Elma Eriksdotter. As the dates fit in with the other children I would guess the 3 children listed on 1661.12.62800 belong to them, and not to Kersti. and, now that I look closer, there is a note at the bottom of the page which I assume is a continued above note. It just seemed strange that the children's names would not be listed and no birth recorded. Almost as if they were non people.
I would guess Anreas Jönsson is a brother of Kersti, but I guess I will never know.

Yes, I have all the information on the family after Kersti married Nils in 1875 and also the other Johnsons. What I was curious about was the 3 children listed on the GID 1661.12.62800. No names and no father. I checked for births for Hjärsås for the dates of these children (the 1861 and 1863, since there are no birth records for the year 1859) but I did not find any children with these dates and mother Kersti. If they were not baptized, would they have no record of the birth? Are these Kersti's children, since they are listed on this record? There are no children with these dates listed after Kersti marries Nils in 1875.
The record shows Kersti moving to page 49 on 20 Oct 1866 and then back to this page (page 51) 25 Nov 1868.
Also, would some help me with the pronounciation of the village name - Hjärsås?

Would someone help me with a translation and explaination of record 1661.12.62800 ?
I understand that the church records for Hjärså were lost in a fire in 1895. My great grandmother, Kersti Jönsdotter was from there and I was looking at this record for about the 3rd time when if occurred to me that this page shows Kersti's mother and father on the first row of this record. It appears her mother died 16 Feb 1859? (or is it 1869) but I cannot read the birth date. Is the birth location for her mother Orkened? Kerti's brother, Carl, and his family are listed starting on row 14, so perhaps the entire page is the Jöns family?
My other questions are in regards to the 3 children listed as male child and female child on lines 8-10. Why are there no names? and what is the translation of the notes for these children?
It would be a great help if someone could help with these questions. Thanks.

Thank you so much for the great information. It was sad to read the letter I have, dated July, 1946 to my grandfather here in the USA. Since the war was over, the Swedish family really wanted him to come back home for a visit, but he didn't. Within 6 months everyone mentioned in the letter, including my grandfather, had died and Hanna was the last living relative (1/2 sister) of my grandfather. Sad to see her husband died at about the same time.
Thank you again, Merry Christmas

Hello again. I am trying to tie up some loose ends. Would someone look up the following person on the death CD (date and place of death)?
Hanna Charlotta Pettersson (or perhaps Pettersdotter, it is unclear which name she used) born 21 Jul 1876 Södra Ving (Wing), Älvsborg, Sweden. Mother was Lotta Svensdotter and father was Andreas Pettersson.
I believe she married a person with the first name of Gustaf, but I am not sure. I have some letters that mention Hanna and Gustaf and I believe it refers to them. If there is more information on him and possible children from later census CD's that would be great.
regards

Hi,
I need a little more help in completing my family history as far back as the Swedish Church Records allow. I am trying to find the parents of Jönas Lants (family name Jönas Larsson). He shows up in the soldier data base and also I was able to find a first reference for his wife and children on GID 578.7.79500 and further reference on GID 578.8.89300. I believe his birth record is GID 1927.21.13200 in Norra Åsarp. His birth records shows his parents as Lars Andersson and Catharina Lehrsdotter (I believe that is what is written on the record). There is also a reference on the birth record for Vräna. I would like to find additional information concerning his parents, such as birth parish and birth dates.
I have searched twice through the examination records for Norra Åsarp for the periods 1793-1810 and also 1811-1816 and have not been able to find any reference for Jönas or his parents. I also searched similar periods for Timmele and Blidsberg. I know that sometimes the parish names or alignments were changed in the past. Would someone provide me some additional search advice or help in this search?
Thanks

Hi, Thank you all for the information. Once I determined that Södra Ving was the correct parrish I was able to find the family records. Lotta married Andreas Petterson and they had a daughter, Hanna in 1876. Andreas lived in Södra Ving so this is why the family moved from Timmele in 1874. Lotta is my great grandmother. I know that one of Lotta's daughters, Anna Mathilda (my great aunt Tilda) married a Samuelsson and lived in the area until she died. Now I must use some census records for searching. I have a picture with all of these people in it, and now I know the names of most of them. I have seen pictures of the church at Södra Ving on the internet ( http://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/S%C3%B6dra_Vings_kyrka). It appears to be a very nice village. regards Hiel

Thanks, that explains why I could not find Norra Wing in Ävsborgs. I will have to search through Södra Ving again for the records I am searching for.

I am having difficult on this parish name. As there is no W in Swedish, can I assume the entry (GID 1951.19.23500, lines 1-7) is refering to the village Wing in Södra Ving? (Also, where, on the map, is Södra Ving ?) I searched through the village in the 1871 - 1880 records but could not find the family records.

Thank you to everyone for your assistance. I now have a connection for my history records in the USA to my history records in Sweden. The Lind and Nelson family has always been a mystery to my family here in the USA, but now it has been solved!!
My father was the youngest son of Carl Lind and Hilda Nelson. Hilda died when he was young and Carl soon after, so there was only bits of information that I had from my father before he died. Using what small amount of information, and with all your help, I now have a complete genealogy going back to 1800.

thank you so much for the information. I will take some time to verify the family records, but that is certainly the family in the EMIHAMN database.

« skrivet: 2010-10-24, 15:35 »
Thank you for the excellent information and the quick response. Hilda's record on EMIHAMN appears to be the missing link. I was not sure that Hilda Nilsdotter from HJÄRSÅS was my grandmother, but now I am more confident that I have found the correct records.
Yes, Proctor, Vermont is a strange destination, but not too far from Concord, NH. Her cousin lived in Concord, so that would explain her connection.
Her cousin brings me to my second question. The cousins name was Anna Johnson (obviously some from of Jöns, Johan, etc), birth date 1866-01 (from USA census). Her mother's name was Hanna Johnson, birth in 1828-07 (also from USA census, but the family says she was born in 1826). Anna had a daughter named Alma Nelson b January 1889 or 1890 (USA census show the date as 1889, but the family says it was 1890). Family stories say Hanna, Anna, and Alma came to the USA when Alma was around 3 years old. Anna married George Hanson from Denmark, but I am not sure if they were married before or after the immigration. It is possible they traveled to Denmark before coming to the USA.
Alma died in Washington DC during the world flu epidemic of 1918.
I did find records on Genline (GID 1732.45.14900) in Östra Broby which appear to match, but I loose the link on record GID - 1732.48.16000 and the moving out record GID - 1732.57.29500 (I cannot read the name of the parish).
I would like the find the correct records for Anna and her family and also find the birth information for Alma. I could not find Alma in the Swedish Census for 1890. Finding the emmigration records would confirm the link to my family. It is possible that they traveled to Maine in the USA as that is where the Hanson family lived. I could not find the records for County Kristianstad for these parishes in the 1830's, which would confirm the link the Hilda's family.
Thanks again for any help you can offer.

Hello,
I wonder if someone can assist me as I have reached a dead end on my search for my grandmother and another relative. I'll post my grandmother question here and the other relatives in another post.
My grandmother's name from family records was Hilda Nelson and I am searching for her birth location and parents names. She married Carl Lind and I have several generations for Carl. He was from Timmele parish in Älvsborg and emigrated 1896-05-17 arriving in Boston in 1896-05. He lived in Concord, NH, where he met and married Hilda. All my info. for Carl was found on Genline and in Emibas, so I am confident it is correct. His father was a soldier with names of Anders Lind and August Johansson. His mother was Lotta Ivansdotter, who remarried Andreas Pattersson in 1874 after Anders died.
I know from family records Hilda's birth date was 1879-01-20 (the year and month verified on the 1900 and 1910 USA census). The 1910 USA census also indicated her immigration year as 1898. I suspect she came from Skåne county because her cousin was said to be from there but no one in the family knows for sure. She and Carl were married 1900-11-03 in Concord, NH. Her name in the 1900 USA census, prior to marriage was Hilda Nilson. She worked for a Roberts family in Concord as a servant. Is it possible they paid for her travel to USA?
Based on my knowledge of Swedish naming customs, I am pretty sure her family name would be some form of Nils.... I have searched the 1890 Swedish Census for the name Hilda with a birthdate 1879-01 and a father Nils but had no success that seemed to fit. I did find a birth for a Hilda for 1879-01-18 (GID 100011.87.45300) for Hjärså, Kristianstad. However, going forward in time, I loose the link for her on the family record GID 1661.5.3600 from 1894 as I cannot read the moving to information. Also, I cannot find this person on the emmigration records on Emibas for the 1897-1898 period.
I also tried the Swedish Census for 1890 but could not find anyone with a name of Hilda or Mathild or Thilda with a birthdate of 1879-01 and a father's name of Nils.
I have a subscription for Genline, but I do not currently have access to Emibas or the Swedish Census cd's.
Any suggestions, information on additional sources, or verification of the searches I have already completed would be of help.
Thanks in advance. ö
