When were these people from Sweden born? The 1900 U.S. Federal Census, which apparently you have already seen, lists a month and year of immigration which may be at least approximately accurate. There are some excellent emigration databases for Sweden and I have them.
Andrew is not a Swedish name. Probably his name in Sweden was Anders or Andreas. Eklund is more likely than Ekland but many of our Swedes left Sweden with a patronymic name (son/daughter name) and only later used a surname.
It is just about impossible to try to help without knowing when they were born since their last names are common.
What towns are in Lincoln County, Nebraska?
