Johan Stenberg Dec. 1, 1871

[Mary Jo Stoneberg]

My great grandfather was born Dec. 1, 1871 in Halland Sweden. He immigrated to the USA in 1888.I don't have any idea what parish he came from or his parents names are, If there is any thing anyone can help me with that would be great. Thanks

There is only one Anders Johan Stenberg born in Halland in the 1880 census. He was born in the parish of Tvååker. His father was Nikolaus August Stenberg born 1833 and his mother Amalia Andersdotter born 1837. There are three other children in the family viz. Anna Lovisa (1873), Alma Charlotta (1876) andSven (1879). Could this be the family you are looking for?

Anders Johan Stenberg, born May 8, 1871, is living in Tvååker in census 1910, so I doubt this is the right person

Middle  name Severin?
 
If so look at this, however year of immigration differs, perhaps Stenberg was a name taken after emigration.
