Helena Jonsson or Hemborg for CD look-up and other available information, please.

[Pat Richardson]

Seeking information information for Helena (Johansdotter) Jonsson born 15/2/1824 in Hemsjo, Kronobergs lan and 1846 married in Hovmantorp, Kronogergs lan Anders Jonsson born 26/2/1818 in Ormesberga, Kronobergs lan died 12/12/1854 in Hemsjo.
 
Helena emigrated to the U.S. with a destination of Moline, Rock Island County, Illinois in 1873.  With her were her children Ida Christian born 20/3/1851 and Sofia born 23/3/1851.  These girls were evidently twins although I have been given a different birth date in the same month and in the same year.  Also there was a son with Helena, Johan Alfred born 4/8/1853.
 
Helena may have used the name Hemborg which was the name chosen by her son Carl August on entry to the seminary in Paxton, Illinois.  All the immediate family members later took this name.
Helena died in Moline in 1906.
 
Thank you.
