Hedberg, Carl Otto - head sawyer in the Gagnef area

[Claudia Hedberg]

Hi,
I am looking for information about my great grandparents, the Carl Otto Hedberg family, who lived in Gagnef where Carl was a head sawyer.  He was born in Karlstad on March 1, 1846.  I am trying to find out how many children they had in Sweden and their names.   I do know my great grandmother was pregnant with my grandfather when they crossed and that they left Sweden by way of Goteborg to Liverpool where they sailed to Castle Rock, NY on the “City of Chester” ship.  Also, is there any way to find out what parish Gagnef is in?  
 
Any help will be greatly appreciated.  
Thank you - tack.
Claudia Hedberg
