Christina Marie Nystrom

[Ken Johnson]

Hej,
 
Looking for information on Christina Marie Nystrom not sure exactly where she was from but born in Aug 1844, she married Carl Johan Lundquist 31 DEC 1864 around the Doderhult area and immigrated to the USA in 1870.
 
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
Regards
Ken Johnson

Hi Ken!
 
Are you sure about her last name?
 
There are a woman named Christina Maria Svensdotter who marries a Carl Johan Lundqvist December 31 1864 in Döderhult.
 
Christina Maria Svensdotter is born August 26 1844.
Carl Johan Lundqvist is born March 9 1840.
 
Is it possible that these are the two persons you are looking for?
Do you perhaps have a name on a child?
 
I find only one child alive at the time Christina Maria and Carl Johan emigrates from Sweden and that is their daughter.
 
Anna Maria born January 31 1869
 
I have found two more children. However they both died within their first year.
 
Augusta Hilma               b. February 8 1866 d. May 5 1866
Nils Johan Halfrid (?)      b. October 6 1867  d. February 18 1868 Cause of death: Whooping cough and stroke.
 
But seriously, I am not sure that these are the correct persons.
We need you to verify that for us.
 
When you have done that, we will be able to tell you about her parents and siblings and maybe even Carl Johans parents and siblings.

Hi Richard,
 
We have both names, but thought the Nystrom was correct, guess it's Svensdotter.
 
Would like to know her parents names and her siblings if we could.
 
Thanks
Ken

Ken, according to the cd Emibas Carl Johan emigrated alone in 1869 and his wife and daughter joined him later. In the cd Emibas they are noted as leaving the parish on 1 January 1872 (see below) but in the parish book I can't easily find the date, they are noted to be in America in 1871 and 1872.  
 
On page 378 of the Döderhult household examination roll 1861-1872, Döderhuld AI:13, they are also noted as moved to S. Forteck - spelled out 'särskilda förteckningen' (more or less 'the special list') - which means a list of people that normally are not found in the parish, mostly because they might have moved without exit permits - often at this time emigrated. The list is found in the end of the volume covering these years, in this case Döderhult AI:14, page 730, Carl Johan on row 10 and Christina Maria and their daughter on row 22.
 
The name of the son was Nils Johan Walfrid.

PS. In Döderhult AI:13, covering 1861-1872, on page 214 you will find Christina Maria with her family before the marriage, and in Döderhult AI:14, same years, page 452, you will find Carl Johan and his family.
