I am looking for information about Karolina (Lena) Gustafson, my grandmother. Family lore is that she died between 1912-1915 in Minnesota. She immigrated in 1889. In 1905 she married Carl (Charles) August Peterson b. 1860 Sweden. She had two children: Ruth Virginia Peterson b. 24-OCT-1906 Minneapolis and Roy Ernst Peterson b. 18-MAY-1910 Minneapolis. I have been unable to find her death certificate. Only evidence of her existance is Ruth's birth certificate; Carl and her naturalization papers; and the 1910 Federal Census. In 1910 her brother Conrad Gustafson b. 1872 Sweden, lived with she and Carl. Any information would be helpful? Anyone?
