I wish to find relatives or other sources who can tell me everything about my grandmotherīs ant, Selma Gustafson (maiden name). She was born in Sweden on 4 March, 1871 (She had a twinbrother, Adolf, but he stayed in Sweden). She emigrated from Sweden to America on 18 Oct, 1889. Destination New York, regarding to Emihamn.
I am 99% sure that I have found her on Census 1900. A woman named Selma Gustavson lived at Worcester Ward 8, Worcester, Massachusetts. She has the same immigration year, birth year and even birth month. I have an old photo of my Selma in her late twenties taken in a photostudio in Worcester, MA. I have another, newer one taken on her together with her husband? in Brockton, MA.
Her older brother Erik Gustaf Gustafson, emigrated from Sweden to Rutland before her, in 1888, 4 May. He was also born in Sweden 1864, 24 January. I am grateful for information about him to.
Unfortunately, I can not find Selma any further in Census 1910, 1920 and 1930. I assume that she went married and got another surname, regarding to the later photo from Brockton with her together with a man. I wish I could find a marriage certificate or something which could take me further.
I am grateful for any information about Selma and her brother Erik Gustaf Gustafson and their families.
Best Wishes! /Helen Arvidson.
