Here they are leaving Sweden, as shown by the Emibas CD. Emibas was made from registrations in the Swedish parish to go to a foreign country. It is about 75% complete.

This Anna is probably the daughter in this family, although she was listed separately (probably since she was considered an adult since she was probably confirmed).

The letters I and J look quite similar in the old writing, so the transcriber probably misread the J. The names Rehnström and Renström are the same but the first spelling has the "decorative h". Ronstrom is an Americanized spelling of those names.

I am not related.
