Lena Kajsa Fredriksdotter

[Sharon Weber]

Lena Kajsa Fredriksdotter (or Fredriksson), born March 25, 1858 in Ed, Alvsborg County.  (My great aunt.)  
 
Her parents were Fredrik Pettersson, b. Sept 5, 1834, and Brita Katarina(or Katrina) Andersdotter, b. August 27, 1831.
 
She had a brother Petter August Fredriksson Nordstrom, b. Sept. 2, 1859.
 
I would like to know what happened to her -- if she was married, had children, emigrated to America, when she died.
 
Thanks for your help.

She is still listed as a single woman, at Högen in Dals-Ed in 1890, but there is also a note that nobody knew where she was.
 
In 1900 she is married:
Gren, Karl August 1874 Father, born in Dals-Ed
Fredriksdotter, Lena Kajsa 1858 Mother
(Barn), Ida Maria 1896 Child, born in Dals-Ed
 
Her husband is a former soldier and they live at a place called Lerbäck in Dals-Ed.
 
This information comes from the CD databases of The population of Sweden in 1890 and 1900.

That's interesting that Lena married someone named Karl August Gren.
 
Lena's mother Brita Andersdotter had 5 children born out of wedlock between 1867-1878.  The 4 girls later took the last name Gren (assuming the name was from their biological father).  The 1 boy died at 2 years old.
 
Thank you.
