Erik Jakob Grundström and Karolina Larsdotter

[Sofia Ingmarsson]

I am interested to know if these relatives of mine had anymore children after arriving in America in 1894. They settled in Aitkin, Minnesota.
Erik Jakob Grundström was born in 1862 and died in 1927, probably in Aitkin.
His wife Karolina was born in 1862 and died in 1946, probably in Aitkin.
 
Their children born in Sweden:
Albertina Olivia, May 15, 1887 Ådals-Liden
Erik Johan Albert, Dec 15, 1888 Ådals-Liden (emigrated in 1904, was foster child 1894-1904 at aunt's and uncle's place)
Alma Charlotta, May 12, 1891 Ådals-Liden
 
In 1900 Erik Jakob got a Homestead Certification

Sofia: Jag har kontakt med ättlingar till Erik Jakob och Karolina. Jag kan inte kolla mina papper nu, men de är barnbarn eller barnbarns barn. Om du skickar e-post till mig sedan så kan jag ge dig deras e-postadress när jag kommer hem.
 
Hälsningar

From Swenson Swedish Immigration Research Center film #E98 for First Lutheran Church and Bethelehem Lutheran Church, Aitkin, MN
For both churches, the family are not on members lists.
First Lutheran:
Confirmation pages begin April 1906 so Alma Charlotta Grundstrom was confirmed Jul 26 1908 along with Agnes C. Grundstrom who was born Jul 19 1895.  Both parents are named as Erick and Carolina Grundstrom.
 
Bethelehem Lutheran:
Alfhild Eugenia Grundström b. Nov 28 1897 and
Ada Adelia Grundström born Oct 1 1899
both girls listed as from Northland town in this confirmands listing.
There is nothing else listed.  Albertina and Erik were probably confirmed before Apr 1906 so we have no record of them here.
