Looking for John Anderson

[Ed Anderson]

John Anderson was born in Sweden about 1863. I don't know when he came to the U.S. He was married to Emma Mathilda Svenson. She came to U. S.Feb.12-1892. There first child was born on June 4-1896 in Minnesota.  Thank You.

Hi Ed!
Do you know the birthdate and year to Emma Mathilda? There is 5-6 singel person with this name , and 10-11 children called Emma Mathilda wich father called Sven in 1890 Swedish census.
 
One person called Andersson-Hallgren, John Petter born 1863 so it can't be him. Maybe Your  John left to US erlier.  
Have you any idea/conception were in Sweden / wich area / they was born?
Good Luck
Elisabet

Hi Ed,
I did not find a Swedish church in the town of Ponsford, MN so I took to check church films for churches in Detroit Lakes and Lake Park and I must report that I did not find them.  I did not find a child baptized at that time that had parents John and Emma Anderson.
It is possible that the town had a Norwegian church and maybe you can find them there.
