Fransson/Säfström Family in Säfsnäs, Kopparberg län

[Lena Fransson]

Subject: Fransson in Säfsnäs, Kopparberg län
 
My ancestors lived  in Säfsnäs Parish  beginning in 1847. I plan to visit this area in July of this year and would be most happy to find any descendants of these ancestors.  My information is:
 
Lars Fransson, b. 28 March 1795 in Nora Parish, Örebro län; died 11 Oct 1864 in Säfsnäs Parish, Kopparberg län.
 
Son, Lars Eric, b. 17 May 1834 in Nora Parish, Örebro län; died 2 July 1857 in Säfsnäs Parish, Kopperberg län.  I believe he changed his name to Lars Eric Säfström when he moved away from the family to work.
 
Son, Israel, b. 5 Oct 1835 in Nora Parish, Örebro län; Apparently he remained on the family place after his father died. He had two children-Carl Adolph b. 23 Feb 1861 and Johanna born ? Aug 1862.
 
Son,Per, b. 13 April 1838 Nora Parish, Örebro län; This man was my great grandfather and he emigrated in 1868 using the name Per Säfström.
 
Son, Magnus,b. 21 Sept 1840 in Färnebo Parish, Värmland län.
 
Daughter, Maria Stina, b. 31 March 1842 in Färnebo Parish, Värmland län.
 
Son, Franz, b. 3 Aug 1846 in Säfsnäs Parish, Kopperberg län.
 
Daughter, Emma Carolina, b. 28 Sept 1848 in Säfsnäs Parish, Kopperberg län.
 
It appears several of the children changed to Säfström as a surname.  
 
The best I can read in the HFL's, the family lived in a location of  Säfsbyn.  I would appreciate any help on finding possible descendants of these people in Sweden, especially in the Säfsnäs area.  Perhaps grave location, perhaps phone number/address-anything at all.  
 
Would  it be useful to also post this to another place in ANBYTARFORUM such as Efterlysninger/Landskap? I was hestitant to do this because I cannot write in Swedish.  
 
Best Regards,
