Anderson, Albertha (Bertha) b1859 Småland & siblings

[Carter Cummings]

My great grandmother Albertha (Bertha) Anderson was born on October 24, 1859 somewhere in Småland.  She emigrated to the US in 1881 with her brother Charles and sister Emma. She also had a brother John and sister Mary who emigrated to the US in 1870.  They changed the family name from Anderson to Andrain once they came to the US.  But her death certificate lists her father's name as Andrew Johnson.  I am trying to find any record(s)of their emigration and where they lived before coming to the US.

Perhaps she is this Albertina.

I checked the birth record for Albertina, using Genline.

Albertina was born 24 October and baptised 26 October 1859 in Långaryd parish, Jönköping county, Småland province. Her parents were Andreas Johannesson and Greta Benediktsdotter, who lived in Södra Remma in that parish. The mother was 32 years old. The baptism witnesses were also listed.
 
Andrew Johnson is an Americanization of Andreas Johannesson.  
 
Andreasdotter (or Andreasson; or even Andersson/Andersdotter) would be the patronymic last names of children of Andreas Johannesson.  
 
I don't see her emigration on the Emibas CD. These are probably Emma and Carl.

However, the Emihamn database shows all three together but they appear to be cousins and not siblings according to this.
