Anders magnus helander

[Jim Benson]

Seeking information on my great-great  
grandfather, Anders magnus Helander who  
was born March 28, 1848 at Halkoping and  
arrived in Boston November 20, 1892.  
Looking for his parents, siblings, others that  
emigrated.

[Elisabeth Thorsell]

Your gg grandfather is probably identical with AM Helander, male, age 44, who came from Karleby i Skaraborg county and left the port of Göteborg on 1892 Nov. 4 with a ticket for Boston. All according to the database Emigranten.

Halköping should probably be Falköping.

Hi Jim!
I have a lot of Helander in Hällestad, Östergötland. Maybe they are relatives because I have also a Anders Magnus Helander born 1828. And the name is not so usual, so if you come back to Hällestad you can contact me.

Hi Jim,
I was doing a lookup at Boston for somebody else so I added the Helander name but did not find anybody in the Covenant Congregational Church or Emanual Lutheran Church.

Hi Jim!
 
I recently learned that some of my relatives emigrated to the US in the 18-something . I saw  that you were looking for your great grandfather Anders Magnus Helander, and I was wondering if he could be one of my relatives. He was from Falköping and married to a Beda C. Carlsson in 1901 in Boston. And the son of Fritz Helander and his wife Maria. Please let me know if this seem to be right!
 
Best regards

My great great granfathers name was Anders Johan Helander born 19/12 1851 in Järpås, he moved to Dalarna and today we are some Helanders here.
He had a sister Augusta Andersdotter Helander born 11/9 1854 in Järpås, she lived in Gökhem for a couple of years and got a son Johan Albert Holger born 20/2 1877 in Gökhem ( unknown father). Augusta and  Johan Albert Holger emigrated to the US 1879.I dont know where she went in the states, but i know that she died before 1901 and that she had been married to a John Lee and had two children with him.
Another brother to Johan August( 1851) and Augusta( 1853)is Carl Alfred born 11/1 1856 in Lidköping he got five children Holger Arrhenius 1879, Hilda Josefina 1883, Astrid Hedvig Emilia 1888, Ernst Harry 1891 and Karl Helmer 1895. i have not found any relatives to them in Sweden so they probably emigrated to.
So if anybody know anything about relatives to these persons i will be very happy.
