Louisa kristina falk

[Deanna Summy]

louisa, born 1884 stora aby parish left for america to marry my grandpa . Their engagement is in astorp newspaper 1910. They were married in Bow Island Alberta Canada December 1911.
I was told over the yers she came directly from Sweden to Marry my grandpa Chas Emil Carlson born 1885 Bjurnekulla parish. He emmigrated to america in 1903 and went to the gold mines of alaska then whaling off seattle then worked in the anaconda copper mines in Montana before he homesteaded in Bow Island Canada 1910. I have been trying to find when my grandmother Louisa falk emmigrated to America. I have papers saying she left from goteborg november 1911. I cannot find the ship she came on. Also a freind was in Sweden last month and was told that my grandmothers father took out papers for her to leave in 1904 to go to stoughton u.s.a. I can not find any record of her in U.s. or Canada in those years. Her father was Anders Falk a very old man and semi blind as well as a soldier. Perhaps the where the falk name came from. He is in the church record books Stora Avy as is my grandmother. Any ideas or help to solve this matter would be appreciated. I also have post cards addresses to her in Norkoping.
Thank you

Lovisa Christina was born twin on 12 Nov. 1884 in Stora Åby parish (today Åby) in Östergötland county to Anders Falk and Lovisa Carolina Johansdotter. Her twinbrother was stillborn.
Uable to interpret the village/farm she was born I hope others at this message board can help.

Stengärdshult was the farm. Anders Falk was born in Adelöv on 6 Nov. 1818 and his wife on 5 March 1852 in Linderås.
 
Source :  Stora Åby AI:18 (1881--1885) pg 359,
GID 427.35.19300.
 
May add that both Adelöv and Linderås are parishes in Jönköping county.
 
siblings of Lovisa;
Jenny Frenanda b. 1 Oct. 1872 in Åby;
Carl Johan. b. 11 Jan. 1875 in Åby;
Helga Bathseba b. 28 Oct. 1877 in Åby.
 
Perhaps other siblings shown earlier/later.Those mentioned were alive during the time for the clerical survey i.e. 1881 to 1885.
 
Appears Anders and Lovisa Carolina got marreid in 1871,30 Dec.they moved in to Stora Åby in 1871.

From Stora Åby AI:16 (1871 -- 1875)pg 335 (GID 427.32.48600) it appears that Anders Falk got his name from Falkarp in Adelöv parish. He came to Stora Åby 22 Sept 1871 at the same time as his bride. The got married on 30 Dec. 1871.
The farm had been owned by former soldier Anders Fridell, Adelöv.

Because there are no church records online after 1895 I am stuck, but have checked one of the Emigration CD:s , Emigranten but in vain.

Went to Adelöv parish and clerical survey AI:14 ( 1860 -- 1865) pg 72(GID 971.30.5000 ) the pastor has written Folkarp instead of Falkarp - I don?t know who is right. Anders first wife was Gustava Tyresdotter born 1813 in Adelöv.She died on 8 February 1871 according to Adelöv AI:15 , GID 971.31.39900.
 
They got married in 1842.
