Seth Larsson, b 1 Jan 1864, arrived USA 29 April 1889

[Clyde Peterson]

I am searching for information about Seth Larsson, born 1 January 1864 in Göteborg and arrives in USA 29 April 1889.
And his wife Carolina Andersdotter, born 27 September 1864 in Göteborg and arrives in USA 12 September 1889.
They obviously do not travel together.
I am searching for information about the parents of both Seth Larsson and his wife Carolina Andersdotter. Any information will be appreciated.
I am not certain if they are born in Göteborg or are just living there before they emigrated to USA.
Thank you in advance for your help.
Best Regards,
Clyde

If you can handle a mail with the size of 2,5 Mb I can send you a mail with more pictures from the church records.
 
Seth Larsson is harder to locate. Our Cd:s of emigrants don´t cover everyone who emigrated...
 
Good luck!

Thank you Anna and Bodil.
Bodil, I believe that Seth and Carolina may have been married in Sweden.
Could you please follow Carolina and see if they do marry in Sweden before they emigrate to USA.
I can handle copies of church records if you send them.
Thanks again for your help.
Best Regards,
CLyde

Bo,
Thank you very much. It is good to hear from you again. I sure enjoyed meeting you along with Stig last summer.
Thanks again. Have a good day and week.
Best Regards,

Probably some other Bo, perhaps even another Bo Johansson, there are many of us.

Bo,
It was a Bo Johansson from Vadstena.
He had found my 2nd cousin Stig-Gunnar in Vadstena for me last May.
Have a great day and week. Thanks again for your help.
Best Regards,
Clyde

Bodil,
Thank you very much.
Today I visited the local Dickinson County Clerks office and looked up the official death record of Seth A Larsson. He died 10 November 1916 in Iron Mountain, Michigan and was 48 years, 10 months, and 9 days old so the date of birth, 1 January 1868 is correct. Previously I was depending on a family written piece of paper, and it was wrong. I should have known better and checked it out myself before even entering the inquiry. But now all is well and we have the correct man.
Please accept my apology for the mistake.
Thank you again for all your help.
Best Regards,
Clyde
