Thank you Berit the Oliva Nilsdotter is from Lorby No14 as I have all the rest of family history. What I am looking for is to find who she married where and if any children. Just recently we received her brothers death notice in a paper from Nebraska,America and in it stated her married name.Up until then we did not know she was married. We would love to connect with any descendants we have in Sweden.

Oliva and her family still at Lörby 14 as of 1887,
according to clerical survey pg 98,,  GID 1768.35.11200.
I also looked in Death Index Sweden 1947--2003, but no hits.

[Bo Nordenfors (Nob)]

Oliva and her family is researched by a member of the DIS society, I have alerted him and asked if he can help you out.

[Mary White]

Nob  
A great help to my research. I was a member up until recently of D.I.S as Uno Carenvall had sent me all the history of the Petersson's of No 14 Lorby. We discovered that both Bengt and August went to Nebraska.Bengt became Ben Nelson in America and August was known as Gust Nelson of Saunders County we are still searching for his family.
Kind Regards
Mary
