Hudiksvalls Sjömanshus (Sailor's Home) in Chicago

[Gunilla Brolund Sandström]

Hi!
 
In 1914 my grandmother received a letter, telling her that her husband and the father of the 3 children, Karl August Brolund from Hudiksvall in Sweden, had died at Hudiksvall's Sailors' Home (Hudiksvalls Sjömanshus) in Chicago on 1 December 1913. He had been working as a stoker onboard a ship and he was said to have died from kidney trouble.
 
One year later he was declared dead, and that's all we know, his descendants.
 
Is there anyone who knows if there was such a place in Chicago - Hudiksvalls Sjömanshem? If so, I would like to know more about it.
