Hello Eric,
I cannot see any records of August from Tuve parish leaving Sweden. He died in Gothenburg on Apr 20, 1876.

August Simonson in Toxteth, Liverpool was a tailor according to the 1891 census. Strangely enough I cannot find his family in earlier censuses even though he has three children all born in Liverpool 1875-1885.
Have you tried to find a marriage certificate for him? If so, is there any information on August´s background?
