Carlsson or Carlson, from Sweden
Posted by: Lena Eriksson (ID *****9304) Date: April 09, 2007 at 02:59:58

I´m looking for almost a whole family that emigrated from Sweden to America.

They were children of Carl Peter Johannesson, born 1831-08-09 in Ryssby, Småland, Sweden and Gustava Danielsdotter, born 1830-01-13 in Ryssby.
Carl Peter and Gustava Danielsdotter were farmers and as there was real hard times in Sweden their children left for America for to survive the hard times.
Only one daughter stayed, but died giving birth to a daughter. This daughter is an relative to my fiancé.
There was a son also, but he dies when he was one year.
The rest of the children left for America:

In 1884-04-25 three of the children left:

Anna Brita Carlsdotter (maby Carlsson/Carlson) b 1859-09-21, Ryssby

Johan Daniel Carlsson/Carlson born 1861-11-04, Ryssby
According to Family Search he died 1941-02-25 in America

Anders Gustaf Carlsson/Carlson born 1864-06-23 in Ryssby
According to family Search he died 1907 in America

1885-04-02 emigrated
Elof carlsson/Carlson born 1868-03-24 in Ryssby
According to Family search he died 1960-12-20 in America

1888 emigrated
Wilhelm Carlsson/Carlson born 1871-01-16 in Ryssby
According to Family Search he died 1957-09-05 in America

1891 emigrated
Emma Kristina Carlsdotter (Carlsson/Carlson) born 1873-09-09 in Ryssby
According to Family Search she died in 1956-07-20 in America

Since I have contact with realtives in America now, I know that the girl that died young, Johanna Christina Carlsdotter, her husband Olof Magnus Magnusson took his new family and left for America and they came to Colorado. Since I know that Olof Magnus emigrated with some of the people above, a guess from me is that they also landed in Colorado.

If anyone has any information about those people, I would really appreciate if you answered me, I´m really curious about the realtives that left for America!!
